Ok John. I remember I helped you out in making the decision to use Biab last year and you were appreciative. That's a good thing. However, this is one of my biggest pet peeves. Saying something important is intrusive and inconvenient and you basically hate it without offering an alternative.

What you're doing is called bomb throwing. It's easy to criticize but much harder to include a good idea that addresses everybody's concerns to go along with the criticism.

You're usually pretty reasonable so here's the question: What's your alternative security method for PG to use since you "know all about software thievery"?

And my 2nd biggest pet peeve in situations like this is when someone answers that question by saying this:
"I don't know but this method certainly isn't it!"

That's not an answer.
