Reminds me of the classic computer geek joke: An electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, and computer engineer are all riding in a car down a large hill when the brakes start to fade and the car zooms down the hill. The driver finally gets the car to a stop at the bottom of the hill and asks what's next. The mechanical engineer immediately says he can shore up the brakes with some duct tape and twine. The electrical engineer disagrees and claims a far better solution is to hook up an electro-mechanical braking system with the battery and some homemade solenoids. The computer engineer considers both solutions and then says, "Let's push it back up the hill and see if the same thing happens again." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:163450 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
