Darn you Kriston, I had to look that up!

LOL! My work here is done...

And who says those two are mutually exclusive...

You make an excellent point.

And I'm LMAO!

LOL, neato!

I guess the real questions is How did you look it up
Did you use a paper dictionary or did you go online? LOL

Ooooooooh! You are so bad!

Okay, fellow wordsmiths.....

You will know the answer to that question if you also know that I am Uomo Universale- loosely defined.......

I agree with Kriston - I don't trust technology either!!!

Its interesting that the Luddites were high skilled workers replaced by non-skilled labor.

I was in a large meeting recently where someone asked, "Who still uses the CLI much these days?" It was said in a disparaging tone like only idots use it.

Two hands went up - mine and one other person - the only person I talk to socially outside of work - and a polymath as well. And the only other person that everyone turns to as a last resort fix problems.

(CLI = Command Line Interface.)

Its interesting that the Luddites were highly skilled workers replaced by non-skilled labor. But today we see them as unskilled village idots standing against technological progress.

LOL! You got me! I didn't know that term, though if you had said "Homo Universalis," I would have known that version.

Call me whatever you want; just don't call me late for dinner!

I was going to say that but I'm neither a man, nor a "homo".
