Guest guest Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 The problem here everyone is so brainwashed and dumb that they are only capable of following the written instructions, to the letter. None can conceivably think that there could possibly be an advantage or option to use a brain and make allowances for a logical solution.
