Funny thing is, he has set of folks that are all just like him, and they are all merrily re-engineering ports. I figure he's going to sic one of his crew to come back and try again to talk folks into this. Seeing as no one here who has the ability to do the job also still has enough innocence to get snagged into it, well, it's just going to be amusing, after a while. Who knows, they *might* actually come up with some useable ideas, but my own experience says, no. Personally, someone else can wake him up, I'm just going to use the 'delete' key. It's not worth it, you can talk yourself blue in the face, they won't wake up.
