No need. Just step back, figure out the flow here, and dive in where/how appropriate. Fighting the flow is too damned exhausting IMO.

that's where *****es supposed to ride. Not that I'm calling you a *****, Jay. I'm too volatile for that.

I'm hungry. Let me go heat up an AngryMan Dinner...

Would you like to cut down rainforests to make a highway? Yeah I know, extreme example, but not everything is progress, and not everything is seen the way you see it.

I just asked a question, and not for your shade tree philosophy. Do you have an answer to the question, or what? You guys are amazing and so effin smart, but you have zip to say to the question. I have my opinion, and I listen to you guys all day spout yours. So I'm mr opinionated and vocal from now on. Get used to it and buzz off if it rubs you the wrong way.

Just my opinion, which I just found is allowed here.

Right, a blade cuts both ways.

Neglecting the potential influence for users who like no ASR (a potential valid argument but not one I'm addressing here) implementing ASR for all applications costs a huge amount of time and effort which, in turn, cost money and resources which would otherwise be spend on other aspects instead. I, for one, rather see ASR enabled for specific applications on a case-by-case scenario, seeing Brainstorm used to outline the most important & requested applications for such. Likewise, I find Microsoft Office (doc/xls/ppt/...) compatibility important, but read-only support is much easier than read/write support. Same with MMS.

Snap again. That's it, now I have to show everyone the real pronunciation of your handle.

[kweer-tee-twelv]

From now on whenever someone sees / says your handle, that's how it will be pronounced.

I prefer the trunk. The aroma up front isn't exactly lilacs.......

Wow, a post where you don't mention Automatic Screen Rotation or portrait mode. You're making real progress.
