Ah, looks like you're another one of the DC's.   In my opinion, the DC's are
partially responsible for that whole internet bubble busting thing.

Lemme explain...

Back in the early days of the internet, we had geeks running the show. Geeks
who knew the technology, what it could and couldn't do, and knew how to use
it.  These geeks knew that you don't double-click in a web browser.

Then comes along all these guys in suits with alot of money.  They hire the
geeks to sit in cubicles while they sit in the offices.  They *think*
they're going to make millions with this new "internet technology" thing.
However, these suit guys know very little, if anything about the technology
(that why they hired the geeks).  You could walk into just about ANY dotcom
startup in those days and be able to tell the management from the dev staff,
simply by watching them use a web browser.  The management staff would be
sitting there double clicking things on the web pages.  That's why we call
them the DC's (the Double Clickers).

Well, the DC's knew so little about the technology, that the dev staff were
able to take full advantage of it, and took weeks and weeks to implement a
few simple things that really would have taken a few hours, at most, to
implement.  Meanwhile, the dev staff played alot of foosball, and basically
did a hell of alot of goofing off, while getting paid really well, often
convincing the DC's to hire more people just so they could have more people
to play foosball with.

Eventually, the money ran dry because the DC's spent all the money on
overpaid and underworked staff, foosball tables, Aeron chairs and other
stuff.  Plus, the DCs never really understood what it was they were supposed
to do in the first place.

So, yeah... I blame a lot of the internet bust on the DCs.  But, the
developers are to blame also, as they (myself included) soaked the DC's for
as much as they could get.
