  I've got a full-screen text-based text-user-interface program working 
nicely on my Windows XP laptop, but I'd be hard pressed to explain how I 
did it, or do it again.

  Same thing with my NNTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP servers.  I'd never get 
them right again if they failed.  What I really need is a piece of paper 
with the details on it!

  I wonder how many technically-minded people give up on the paperless 
idea and use pencils and paper instead.  A lot, I bet.
