Sometimes a CD will say it's 45seconds away from the end of the track,
and then suddenly the track is over, unexpectedly.
As a DJ, this results in dead air.
Certainly, part of the problem rests with the person who mastered the CD,
including the incorrect info.
But as my co-DJ John Clements pointed out, the real blame rests with
the people who developed the CD encoding format:
it shouldn't even be possible to encode a CD with
such incorrect information!

Netscape -- the unix platform begs for a "clear" button:
all the time i'm cutting/pasting URLs, and i have to paste
from the other window, then go click in the url box,
transfer to the keyboard to ctrl-K(ill) the old url,
then back to the mouse to click the paste button.
A button "clear URL" would solve the problem easily!

Who came up with the brilliant idea,
that microsoft's mail reader run any program which is mailed to you?
May sound nice for a moment, but clearly it's a virus-writer's heaven
(as has been repeatedly illustrated).

XML doesn't use it's own principles in its DTDs.

html is clumsy:
No nested comments,
no abstraction,
.
This isn't so bad, if you realize html is meant solely as
an output language, not for raw editing.
