First about the IIS thing - it was late and I was in the middle of coding some php and setting up my server, which runs on IIS (Internet Information Services - Microsoft's basic webserver). IIS. ISS. You're right - I did a few Freudian slips.

I responded with such hostility because of the environment you decided to share your opinions in. FIRST is a buncha people really excited about technology - the space shuttle program is what we all looked up to (yeah, it's old, but since there STILL aren't any reusable crafts capable of transporting humans into and out of space, I'd say it is still pretty advanced). I saw what you basically did here comparable to telling a mother who's only son was just killed in a car accident that her son was a jerk - it's far from what she wants to hear at the moment.

For that reason, I stand by what I said about stopping this discussion right now. This thread shouldn't go the way of the locked. Check your PMs - I will not continue this in public.
