Simple works for me!! Guess that says something about me..... (simpleton?)

Sometimes the most power lies in simplicity

A simple mechanism is more reliable than a complex one... And simple ideas much easier to hold true to, focus on a simple thing is also more attainable.

When you have a system that becomes so complex it sometimes just gives up, it experiences a SMEF

Spontaneous
Massive
Existance
Failure.

Irony
Anyone Watch Black Adder ?
- Baldric, do you know what irony is?
-It's just like goldy and bronzey only its made of iron.

The Rule
Got to agree, it's a good one. I'm pretty sure that when The master Kung (Kung Fuzi, Kung futzu, confucis... that old chinese guy who knew his stuff, you know the one) was asked by one of his students to sum up his teachings in one word he said, Consideration.
Well, not the english word consideration, but a chinese aproximation there of, with implied meaning to apropriate contexts.
simple enough?
in all things CONSIDERATION

yeh sounds bout right.........like the irony thing....

I watched all the black adder episodes.

Arrow lands in Baldrick's crotch.
Baldrick: Oh, that's useful. I just put my willy there.
Blackadder: So you can call it your lucky willy.
Baldrick: Yes, and I'll show it to my grandchildren.
Blackadder: I think Grandchildren may be out of the question.

Has anyone really noticed that the first like......TWO posts were on topic?
Then everyone starting talking about grammar.......i find that just a little weird.
BUT HEY! dont let me burst your grammatical bubble
