No Tim, not altruistic. My reason for wanting you to write is a selfish one.
Self preservation.  You are able to tie technology into the bigger picture,
and you do have something valuable to say.  You already sacrifice your time in
pointless diatribes about the good ole' days on CP-  I'm just making a plea
that you do something more useful-
