Being in only 4 (5) days given me either one of two perspectives: 1. Ignorance 2. A fresh perspective from the outside looking in. I'll freely admit that the reality is not completely with #2, but 1/2 way between them both. I'd hope that those on the LUG could also view this in a similar fashion. Unfortunately I get far too many emails every day (and not just form the LUG).
