Joe,

I see what you're saying now.  In your case Hobbit is an absolute perfect
match!  Hopefully we can all enjoy seeing your questions and see you
answering some of ours =)

Are you saying you've used BB so much that you know it too well and
need a replacement?  Sounds kind of backwards to me =P
Haha, what I mean is, big brother is showing it's age, and getting
harder to support as time goes by, simply by virtue of the fact that the
code is slowly rotting. But we can't just make a clean sweep - so much
now depends on the way big brother behaves, that the replacement needs
to be able to act identically to big brother.
