I'm surprised so many folks are willing to go down yet another road.
I signed on for the business of securing, storing, exchanging and using of information through a silicon medium in creation of an architecture I call the trust matrix. I'm really not much interested in anything else.
I think some folks just pursue whatever the Spragues offer them. Their faith is tied to the people rather than the idea. Tangents aren't tangential if that is what you want.
Takes different types, I suppose.
