| Agreed. Life is NOT just "IT" (although at times, IT seems like IT  .
Miles/kilometers, weeks/fortnights, metric/standard, tests/testies,
grammar/grammer, scientific_method/chicken_bones, mote/moat...
Where else would expect to find such a wide variety of subjects being
covered???
Seriously...this is very entertaining and definitely lightens the day
(now in hour 26 of an email issue that started yesterday morning)

Um, 180-190F is where coffee and tea are best brewed!
You don't want the water boiling as you get too many tanins, but you get
most of the essential oils out around those temperatures (the lower side
for tea and the high side for coffee). I would say it's a case of all of
us getting a worse product because some people are unable to function
without harming themselves. Whether an overly paternalistic society is a
good thing is an exercise for the reader =)

It's an urban legend that the McDonald's Coffee case was
a frivolous case. The coffee in question was between 180 and 190 degs
F. Liebecks original claim was for $20,000 to pay for the eight days
hospitalisation she needed to treat the third degree burns to 6% of her
body (including genitals).
McDonalds refused the claim causing it to go to court.
McDonalds own internal guidelines also said that anything over 140 deg F
constituted a burn hazard.
If you read some of the unsensationalised reports of the
case it's a fairly good warning about using consultants to create
business processes without proper oversight.
Now I can tell you that if I had a liquid of that
temperature applied to my genitals I'd be fairly damn testy.

Ah, another reason to love the United States.... This
goes right up there with the people who sue McDonald's because they got
burned by the coffee.
Well being in the country I guess my next option is to
put that fence up and just let the grass grow really tall along the
property line as the people around here seem to be deathly afraid of
fleas and ticks getting on themΏ] and for the Quads, well a bunch of
well placed rocks and logs could make things not quite as enjoyable. 
I wouldn't have a problem with it but they seem to have no concept of
the "tread lightly" idea and just assume that since the property is
there and they can see it, they have all the right in the world to do
whatever they want on it.
joe
p.s. s/mote/moat/g;
Ώ] This is a true story, I have 12 acres and about 4-5
acres of it is "manicured". I took the very front 100 feet of the about
300 feet of front yard and let the grass grow and wildflowers grow. My
next door neighbor was complaining that it would cause her kids and cats
(all 11 of them!!!) to get fleas and ticks, I told her it wouldn't if
she kept them on her own property. Then I said even if I did mow that
acre or so of property, I had another 8 acres out back that was even
more wild, was that a problem too? Just looking forward to the time I
have 100 acres and living in the middle of it and there is a gate only
letting those folks I invite in.

Hey that happened to mom too but she was stealing
apples. I think my granddad actually spanked her after that too... Now
a days someone would be trying to sue someone else.
I have been thinking about building a mote, that could
be fun for all sorts of reasons. Darn thing would have to be a third of
a mile to go down one property line though. Though if I built one that
long that was 6 feet deep and 10 feet wide I would have about 100k cubic
feet of dirt to make a sledding hill for the winter or as a base to
build a nice tower like Merlin had. Then I get to do the other side
of the property and build another hill. Of course it took me a couple of
days just to dig my sump drain line trench and that was only 300 feet x
6 inches wide by 18 inches deep.

What sucks is that lack of writing skill is quickly
rolling over into every day writing such as blogs (which, IMO, should
be a step above an email in quality), online news articles, and printed
writing now.
I get dinged at work fairly regularly because I am
willing to write up a long descriptive email of a solution to a problem
but won't write up a "knowledge base" article for it in Word. It isn't
because I don't want to, actually I wouldn't mind if that was my entire
job, it is because when I write something up that I consider formal
(such as a Word document) or long lived versus an email, I will strive
to at least understand why Word is underlining things and make sure that
case, tense, voice, party, flow, etc etc ad nauseum are correct. I hate
reading something that was written for a formal or semi-formal forum and
the writing is poor and I hate to have people look at me the way they do
when they encounter that quality of writing. You just look like an
uneducated bumpkin.That means anything I write in Word for the KB system
(or anything else really) will likely take 10-20 times longer than an
informal email where I just tossed stuff out there.
