They laughed at Galileo. They laughed at Copernicus. They laughed at
Columbus. But remember, they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

"The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who
are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at
Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at
Bozo the Clown." -- Carl Sagan
Also what was funny about Sagan was what he said publicly was one thing,
and what he said privately was totally another. :-O

Why? The application is almost 'newbie' proof in its use - even mostBillW50 said:
AOL.kom users have no problems with it. ;-)
I've been using all the various functions of CCleaner for years now - and
*NEVER* had a problem with it making my computers (I have 5 with it
installed on) "unbootable and totally useless" - and I nobody that I know
who uses the application has had a problem with it.
In reality, the newer versions of the application makes it far easier even
for 'newbies' of perhaps the lower end of technical knowledge to rectify
some of the more common problems that occur when the start 'exploring' their
shiny new computers..
Could you supply some instances where you have had *actually* *had* problems
with this application.

No, the funny part is you digging up quotes about a genius who was
laughed at, as if there's some kind of connection between that and
your situation. Hilarious.

Be careful what you ask for. If there's a computer-related problem to

I've been in this discipline perhaps too long. I earned my degree in
Electrical Engineering
from Purdue in 1962. I was an Engineer with the National Bureau of Standards
(Now NIST)
for 12 years+ in Radiation Physics, Optical Metrology and Automation
Technology.
I was an early contributor to the ARPANET. I can be found on a 1971 graphic
of the ARPANET.
(Bottom right hand corner, PDP8, NBS)
Designed and built microcomputers and process controllers from the Intel
8008 era.
Brought the S100 Bus systems (CP/M) to NBS as a Lab research tool.
I've paid my dues and contributed to the "State of the Art"
I just find your diatribes and "helpful comments", Bill, to be self serving,
and without much
believable credibility or merit.
I envision you in some lonely self made "lab" with two dozen plus "Good
Will" computers
humming away with no real purpose other than to consume AC current.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Your trite platitudes don't help you much either.

They only had taken like the top 5% who had passed the basic course to
take them through the advanced course. Once I finished, they said it was
a far more advanced course than anything on the outside you could get. I
also graduated with the highest test scores they had seen in 5 years.
Although I thought the whole thing was actually very easy. Honestly,
anything to do with electronics comes very easy to me.
During my tour of duty, I worked alongside with some of the best and
brightest engineers from Westinghouse and Honeywell. And remember that
computer that got Apollo to the moon? Yes, we used that one too for
military purposes and Honeywell built that one.
Yes, I heard of what people like Gary Kildall, Paul Allen, and Bill
Gates were up to. Although that didn't sound very exciting to me, since
the things we were doing were far more advanced. Funny though, even what
they were doing seemed like child's play. Yet those child's toys is what
made them rich and famous. Go figure.
After the military, Philips grabbed me up for their Electronic
Instrument division. Where I worked with some of the greatest scientists
and engineers. Yes I had a bit of an unusual life. And I was curious
about the military claim that I was trained far superior to the
education you could get on the outside. So I grabbed an opportunity to
be tested with a fresh group of electronic engineers right out of
various colleges. I was amazed how they thought the test was very hard.
And yes, I came out far on top there too.
So yes, so a bit different than your view of me sitting in a self made
lonely lab from computers from "Good Will". But I have run into a few of
those types before. And frankly, I wouldn't necessarily knock them. As
most of them are doing that because that is what they have a knack for.
And you can't knock them for that. Like you can't knock Michael Jordon
for playing basketball either. ;-)
