You know, I had this very conversation in person face-to-face with Frank, back in May of 2015. It's disappointing to see the issue has not been addressed.

The "battle of the faster mouse click" has now become the endurance race of whoever can sideline the rest of their lives the longest.

We are now 25 minutes in. No working site, no twitter announcement, no e-mail, no facebook post. Not acceptable FIRST. Call it off, NOW. This is beginning to cost me money, and is already ruining my day.
