Bryan:  You are getting into one of your "moods" again.  I was searching
back into the archives looking up blogs and I came across the following
that was posted a year and a half ago.  
 
Sound familiar????

 the thread takes us back to my original post on the subject
in that I "suggested" that we change the name of the APP archive to
something other than the unused "app" name.  
I personally mostly agree with Max's comments on how, what, why and
when.  However, my suggestion would leave the BS as it now is, say
anything, anytime, about anything, that you may want to.
Next point.  TheBS, Phil, Mark and many,many others need to have a
substantial amount of verbiage to get their technical points across. 
Some do it succinctly and other need pages.  Bryan absolutely does not
know how to say "No" or "Yes", and this is fine.  He makes up for it in
many many ways.  He and the other Garus have been of enormous help to me
over the years.
On the other hand, when most Linux associated topics come up they really
do not demand a long, verose technical discussion to clear the matter up
for me (at least in my mind).  A simple do this, do that, or punt will
suffice thank you.
All of the above indicates to me that we might very well consider the
change that I have suggested.  After all we put the "Apps" archive in
with little or no discussion.  I suggested that and BINGO it was a done
deal!  
Why try to beat Bryan or anyone else up for attempting to help us?  Once
again if it helps the helper to use different words to get the message
across to the helpies then so be it.
We are not rewriting the Bible guys!
