Then, pray tell, what is it? We so casually say, "Well, I think I'll change
the resolution of my monitor today." Funny how we all know exactly what that

Maybe we should enter upon a philosophical discussion of what constitutes
nitpicking. Since in my book, nitpicking is such a familiar phenomenon on
