Y'know, there's something sick and perverted about your logic, but I think
you're on to something. Wouldn't the average person tend to NOT try it
again after breaking it the first time? Not us!
First thing I ask when I get the computer back from the shop is, "Next time
I do this, what do I do differently?", and don't understand the look of pity
I get from the techie, to say nothing of the look of anger from wife.
