Well, the denomination of the church I was -- ok, may still be, but that's
another story -- working with is just a wee bit paranoid; they are afraid their
youth might start thinking for themselves and asking questions. I was intending
for some mix of irony and sarcasm to blead through... In truth, I was hoping
they would start to think for themselves. I knew I could sell the Power that Be
on the idea of an online environment that could put them in absolute controll
of the content, but I also knew that not a single one of them is techy enough
to ever make it past new account setup -- if that far. So, I was expecting very
little in the way of input from "them." :-)
Linux is coming.... ^w here; embrace the penguine....
