A mind is a terrible thing to waste ... <grin>
I sympathize. When I first bought my wireless-unlock car, I very often
tried to open the door to my house with the transmitter. That's not as
bad as my wondering why the darn door wouldn't open!

Subject: parking the car with WordPad
While waiting for approval of a web content tool, I have become
accustomed to typing tags into WordPad. I favor this over any other tool
that might add garbage (such as Word saved as HTML). However, I fear the
repetition of typing <begin> and </end> tags is permeating my
subconsciousness.
As I was parking my car this morning, I couldn't figure out how to send
a </park> signal to the transmission. I finally realized I could just
put it in park, turn the key, and get out of the car.
