It's been a long time since I sync'd up. I *assumed* that you 
wouldn't break stuff. I don't know why.

Why should I have to sublcass anything to get basic functionality?

Don't bother answering that one. Having to deal with this sort of 
crap is the single biggest reason I bailed. I'm happy to not have to

you're someone else's problem now.
