And this is hardly an isolated case. J.C., please stop responding to
every issue with a grab-bag of buzzwords and generic solutions. As
Dave says, you aren't telling people anything they didn't know.
If you actually experiment with a specific idea and have data, by all
means submit that. But random suggestions based on something you read in
school are useless, and many developers on this list already took those
classes and read those papers.
