I have to admit that, twenty-plus years ago, I was just as bad. (Some of you reading these messages remember me from the late 1980s and I expect you'd agree.) I made some mistakes that probably could have been avoided if I'd been somewhat less pig-headed about listening to advice from people who had already Seen The Elephant. But sometimes the only want to learn that the wall is hard is to beat your head against it, I guess.
