EXCUSE THE FLAME:
Since when did programming involve sitting on the net and asking for code?

I, like most programmers, enjoy sharing my knowledge, experience, and
sometimes, my code. I also understand requests from programmers who
have tried many times, but fail on a difficult problem. I can also
appreciate asking for examples of how to do things. Especially things
that can be ambiguous or debated.

BUT Ando:
Every thing you've requested I can code in less than an hour.
I bet you don't even attempt to code half these things.
A request for code to erase a mounted volume? Come on.
