After reading this article http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,5744,5907075%255E1702,00.html[^] I fell more uncomfortable , you already known , adding to the fact the "natural" radiation of the monitors and the static electricity , the injury to the sight ,spinal column problems , increase of weight , increase of the chances to get RSI as one ex-collegue of mine already suffer at 24 due to computers ... this kind of things doesn't ring a bit of preocupation to you ? For instance on Monday I worked from 11 a.m. to 8.00 am of Tuesday ... of course this isn't always happening , but with so many hours that we work , only watching a monitor, being seated n long hours and doing a lot of keyboard typing ... what do you expect ? Or you're a optimistic guy that ever thinks about it ? Cheers,Joao Vaz And if your dream is to care for your family, to put food on the table, to provide them with an education and a good home, then maybe suffering through an endless, pointless, boring job will seem to have purpose. And you will realize how even a rock can change the world, simply by remaining obstinately stationary.-Shog9 Remember just because a good thing comes to an end, doesn't mean that the next one can't be better.-Chris Meech

A pack of geeks, pale and skinny, feeling a bit pumped and macho after a morning of strenuous mouse clicking and dragging, arriving en masse at the gym. They carefully reset the machines to the lowest settings, offer to spot for each other on the 5 lb dumbells, and rediscover the art of macrame while attempting to jump rope. -Roger Wright on my colleagues and I going to gym each day at lunch
