I can tell you (quite surely) <i>why</i> D_Hall decided to post this thread; It is the "apparent need" for EVERY engineer (that <b>I've</b> ever come across), to present themselves in a manner in which would make the average <i>lamen</i>, question their "tone".
Funny though, that the average idiots, who earn 1/3 of an engineers yearly salary, are usually the ones who wind up getting the over-engineered POS to work properly, either by redesigning it, or bypassing 17 unnecessary parts.

The few friends that I DO have, are in the local bar 24/7 and most women give you that "Deer in headlights" look and fall asleep halfway through your over-dramatic / long-winded explanation of why you happen to think that this is the coolest thing since the LAST coolest thing you bored her into a coma with.</i>
