I swear to God that site is evil!
You go there to read about one subject, next thing you know you've spent 5 hours reading and have 23 pages/tabs open on subjects that you found within the first and subsequent searches.
And to be honest, I cant remember what the original subject was that I went there for. ...I know I read it, but got so side tracked.
My brain hurts. too much info.. must stay away from Wikipedia.

I do the same exact thing. I go there to look up one thing and I find a really good explination on it. And of course Im looking up a subject that interests me, so I look at the related links at the bottom and find another 5 definitions that would probably be interesting to. I can't stop! _________________ ABAP? What did you call me?

I do the same thing. I randomly go there to look up one thing and end up on a totally different subject with 13 wikipedia tabs open in firefox. _________________ 5 home-built PCs, ASUS A6Jc Laptop, and a PowerEdge 2650 - all running Gentoo.
