Hey Swizec, Congratulations on holding out this long given the amount of headwind that you've been experiencing. What strikes me is that some of that headwind seems to be of your own making and that maybe if you changed your mindset just a

That doesn't work. Users can spot an auto-generated email a mile away. I answer a lot of mail and I make sure that I always refer to something in the original email that is unique to the writer. That goes a long way to getting out of the 'f

Let's hope that it is limited to 3. I get terribly antsy just thinking about who else in computing has reached their 70's and 80's.
