totally OT, but just a few personal observations:

1. Everything was better a few hundred years ago.

2. A fool with a tool is still a fool.
        (just in general, all people present excused...)

3. Simple things tend to become complex. Complex things tend to break, even
when used properly. And it might be hard to use them properly if you don't
have the understanding.

4. Simplicity can be deceptive.
