[mso] Re: Out-of-control style names

Yeah, that one still reddens me. At that time (and still today) the thing
about Front Page that I thought/think is so valuable is the Site Explorer
function. I remember seeing this at an MVP Summit behind a curtain (no
kidding, real life Wizard of Oz moment) with a little geek working hard at
it and me saying to him,"Hey! I need that!! What's it called?". His answer
was a name that I can't remember. It wasn't Front Page...and in the next
breathe he's telling me that he and his co-workers at this little startup
created it and they were just bought by MS. There goes the neighborhood!

Anyway, this whole tale is a collection of ironies...and I ain't a genius
else I'd actually create something. I'm merely a container, a bucket o'
bits.<g>
