Someone in our neighbourhood got themselves a shiny new router.  They're probably down at the end of the street or something, but their signal is blanketing the neighbourhood.  It's also unsecured.  This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but they're currently using a) the same frequency as the network in my house, b) the same channel which is messing with my network adapter, and c) they keep bogarting bandwidth.  If it weren't easy enough to just change everything on my end, I'd almost be tempted to just password protect their router and connection.

The Incontrovertible Didact

Dictionary.com's definition of a didact is "a didactic person". Thank you very much for that lovely piece of enlightenment. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a perfect example of something that "begs the question" -- an explanation or definition that uses itself as a proof. Not, as too many people use the phrase as, something that merely causes you to ask a question or leads to a question.
