OK, this thread I think got way out of hand.. I even said in the original
message that I didn't necessarily want the things changed, except for maybe
removing that one printk line. I got flames up the ass from people around the
world thinking I'm some anal-retentive up-tight person, which is not the case
at all.

I've only stepped inside of a church once.. for a wedding.. so, I'm definitely
not some type of religious nut. :)

I just know that if one of my programs at work printed out a line like that, I
would be in deep shit.
