Reason #67 on why not to post like this: 

The Twin Cities computer business is still a fairly small world.
You run into the same people over and over.
Insulting a bunch of potential work colleagues is a very bad idea.  Resumes
get flushed all the time for this very reason.  

Who wants an admin that folds over this, let alone servers croaking on payday?
Or a programmer who quits when her (<-- PC all the way!) program doesn't run correctly?

Besides, the really interesting people in this group are the sassy ones.
I'd like to meet Ben just because he says what he thinks.
