I have often advocated the viewpoint that Stupidity should be expensive, painful, or fatal.

When this bites Yours Truly in the ass, I am OK with it.

Which is why my dumb ass is in the office for the next hour, rather than sitting on my couch, Xbox controller in hand, with the company laptop on my coffee table.

I've got about fifteen unconnected IDs on various systems. I will be so happy when IBM works out how to do LDAP validation of passwords.
