Irony Of The Day: I realized a critical problem in the post about bug reports. We originally listed the three pieces of a Proper Bug Report as "what you did", "what you expected", and "what you saw" but that misses the most important point of a Proper Bug Report. It's not just the list of steps you took, past tense. The idea is to start from scratch and see if you can make the bug happen on command, writing down each thing you do along the way.
