I strongly suspect that most have done similar things. It is really
difficult to read the manual and do exactly what it says and no
more. The natural feeling is that if the manual gives you the
minimum necessary, there must be additional steps, going
beyond, that will further insure success.
Eric and Ted convinced me over a year ago, and I haven't had a
moment's trouble since.

The precept: Judge not, that ye be not judged... is an
abdication of moral responsibility. It is a moral blank
check one gives to others in exchange for a moral blank
check one expects for oneself. The moral principle to adopt
is: Judge, and be prepared to be judged.
