Rick:
        Yes, I admire the minds that create this stuff--they have a lot more
than my feeble brain matter. Just the few simple programming things I struggle
with leave me incomprehensible of sending rockets to the moon--which must have
been done with real antiquated hardware and programming compared to today's
stuff!!!
        The problem is that they design this high-tech stuff and then are
trying to adapt/sell it to a mostly low-tech world that has trouble with pop
bottle openers. For example, I saw some of the new electric car prototypes at
the LA Auto Show, which require high-tech operating--like the driver having to
adjust a knob which controls the balance between braking power and battery
charging when they are applied. I quit driving when they come out, it's going
to be suicide out there!!!!!!!!!!
