And what does that solve?  Instead of only looking in one place for
answers (or to ask questions), I (and everyone else) would have to look
in two different places.  Talk about inefficient.

Regardless, I think we've got what we need; breaking it up and
categorizing it to death isn't going to solve any problems, and who's to
say that _my_ way of subcategorizing works for everyone?  It doesn't.  I
can tell you that right off the bat. :)

Cheers..
Aaron
