You know, I try to go thru these lists quickly each morning since I am putting
together a new nagios installation and there are still a few things I don't 
know...this is difficult in itself due to all the PURE chafe (html crap and
encrypted pages) that comes along because people are not very carefull
about what they send...but

...this running diatribe between Marc and Paul is really over the top tho...
Frankly, I agree w/Marc; either be helpfull or shut up, but ...do you suppose
you guys could just stop talking to EACH OTHER, completely; that would be
very helpfull.
