It's amazing isn't it?  I think the general population are idiots(this
comes from working at a Home Depot)  I had a guy call me for a quote for
fencing for his yard.  I asked him the size of his yard, he didn't have any
idea.  I told him I couldn't give him a quote without some idea of the
area.  He asked if I would at least give an approximate quote.  On WHAT?
an area with no measurements?  What an idiot.  He then proceeded to tell me
he lived in a trailer park, on the edge, and had that whole big area there.
 I thought        "Ohhhh THAT whole big area!?!!  They really are morons.
