Oh, you mean the guy who had reflexes so good that they were named after him? The guy who set a world record of how fast would he deliver a food whenever cat rang a bell?

And we think the people of today are crazy.

>Pavlov could be applied subsequent to reinforcement therapy (ie: the "Open" dialog). Before committing a single word to a select statement, the developer will grind teeth and sense despair for 1.5 seconds. This will remind said developer that "no one" fools with mother soft's Watson interface. NO ONE! Open your file first - OR learn what pain really is!:-)

Now stay calm for a minute, breathe deep, close your eyes... remember your childhood... since when does this problem haunt you? Was it when you were first caught opening your father's files? Or playing with a metal file? Or when you asked in presence of adults about the difference between ranks and files?

This can be cured, you know?
