Bah, I won't even comment on that ex-(thank the stars)-president.  Not
that
we got a better one in the deal, mind you...

Again you don't know this group well...  There's several types of
con-birds
around... Red-breasted rules lawyers, Pigeon power gamers (Me, or so I'm
told), etc...

Unfortunately, like most children, we tend to want to go running to
Mommy
and Daddy to solve our fights...  Well, ok, really we just want them to
side with us so we get to stick our tongues out and go "NAYH-NAYH"

Ok, we're not that bad, but it can seem that way.  I admit, I haven't
been
around in a while, but it sure sounds like things haven't changed.

Makes life hell for those people that just want to have fun, who are
more
than willing to be perfectly reasonable, but who don't want to get
screwed
out of having fun.

Cynicism is best, no surprises.

I'd _pay_ to get FB/FT3!  Oh wait, I'm gonna have to do that anyway...
