Hey Booji,
I'm a bit confused about what a beta tester does. We already use the
software, so we are testing it(?), like I said I'm confused. I'll take Torture
is a just means of preventing terrorism (reminds me of my second round of
the first WODC) and check out Organ donorship should be opt-out, not opt-in.
(debatabase, another partner website? )

Work done with anxiety about results is far inferior to work done without
such anxiety, in the calm of self-surrender. Seek refuge in the knowledge of
Brahman. They who work selfishly for results are miserable. --"Bhagavad
Gita."
