At least now we're heading back down the road that aligns with the quote below. BTW, a huge thanks to Sirtel for enlightening the rabble... of which I am a part.

It has been my experience that triviality tends to breed complacency and a sense of entitlement that, in my opinion, will cause more harm than it will help.
