Does anyone else see the irony here???

We programmers are CONSTANTLY complaining about users' resistance to change.

"Because we've always done it that way" is the common excuse, and we joke about
it. "Those stupid users..."

Now, WE are being asked to embrace change, and all of a sudden WE are the
users.

And people say God doesn't have a sense of humor! :)

Peace,

-- Don
