Amazing -------------------- "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." "It's at times like this, when I'm stuck in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelegeuse about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was little." "Why, what did she tell you?" "I don't know, I didn't listen!"
