&gt;playing.
&gt;
&gt;etc etc blah blah. :) Please DO send me other such little nuggets you've
&gt;spotted in the list--my objective is very much to provide a nice primer
&gt;of basic lessons that we may not all realize we know. Defining our
&gt;knowledge of state of the art is the first tsep towards pushing the

wasn't there one about 'In any given number of people there is always
a certain proportion of assholes'?
 
not exactly state of the art. ;)
