Why are you so angry? It's just a website....and it's just a quote feature. Nobody's died...or gotten hurt, so what's wrong?

I was going to quote you then, but unless I do all that mucking about with copying and pasting all that stuff, I really can't be bothered. You don't even know who you are.

All these changes are leaving poor Osiołs head spinning...
