Another issue about default standards:

For Bob's sake: make the standard extension for text files .text. Not
.txt, but .text. This is Unix. We don't need to have .htm and .text
files. We can have .html and .text.

To me, this is an important point ;>

It's sad to live in a world where knowing how to program your VCR
actually lowers your social status...
