Hi!
I think a discussion about the why's could be interesting and
insightful - unfortunately I have to agree that the posts above are
mostly about influencing and not much about truth seeking. Is that
ever possible?
I don't think so. Everyone thinks and works a little different. So, a feature
in a software could be THE feature for one but the killer bug for someone else.
This is similar to "Whats the best editor?" or "Whats the best operating
system?"... Countless flamewars have been fought (and lost) over questions like
that.
As WOPR in "Wargames" pointed out: 'A strange game. The only winning move is
not to play'.
So far, the only two questions in that category humanity was able to solve were
"What is the best drink in existance?" which is the Pangalactic Gargleblaster
and "What is the meaning of life, the universe and everything?" which is fourty
two (and for which we are STILL waiting for the exact wording of the question
to make sense of the answer).
