When you reply to someone's post and say "Keep It Simple Stupid" you are
calling them stupid. Clear and simple.  /jim

1.  Had to do a real double take on this message......   directed at
whom???
2.  K-I-S-S is an indirect and very constructive rendering of the
situation commonly used in the vernacular.  I am quite lost as to how
one might use this in direct construction directed at an individual.
'Trying to find the answer without first asking the question is like
reading in the dark.'
3.  I do not waste my time or energy being vindictive or insulting to
anyone.
4.  There is a problem being discoursed.  How to label the CDROM?   I
stand by my direct and focused answer (K-I-S-S)  of a simple mono-color
ink imprint on the disk with detail and embellishment saved for a low
cost paper jacket.   I support the concept and the effort.  Don't waste
your money and time in fancy labels which risk integrity of the disk or
expensive Yamaha burners.   Newton's laws have not been voided with
respect to mass (especially that off center) x velocity.
5.  I repeat:  Pragmatism and knowledge are NOT negative.   Great idea,
just K-I-S-S.........   This applies with no less certainty to me.
Should I mandate less to myself, unable to be contributory.
6.  I quit not having perceived anyone to be 'stupid'......
........the idea for a documentary on wild ferns is Great.

Suggest a greater benefit from a more constructive reading of my prior
post.
