has anyone noticed that the corn shower curtain looks like the curtains in the Simpsons' kitchen? lol

HRWiki is quite a waste of time. In fact the entire Wiki concept is fatally flawed.

Thank you for your comments. Please understand: if this wasn't a wiki, you wouldn't have been able to so easily share your comments with us. -- Tom 20:14, 21 Jan 2005 (MST)

<rant>That does not invalidate my (poorly described) argument. Discussion forums, message boards, BBS's have been around for a long time. And before that, letters to the editor, screaming on streetcorners, etc.

The flaw in wiki is "peer review" - who are these peers? Random people on the internet aren't my peers. I can see wiki working when a specific group only has access to it, say, a corporate wiki where people post things related to day-to-day business. To quote Kent Brockman, "I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Democracy just doesn't work." :)

Oh well, I guess I shouldn't dwell over an obsessive fan-site of a silly cartoon (but great, don't get me wrong!). HRWiki is still nice to see the easter eggs you miss, but who wants to waste time voting on fun facts and getting into edit wars. It kind of ruins the fun of finding eggs yourself, though. </rant> - JZ, 23 jan 2005

Then I suppose it's a good thing that we don't force people to come here or participate in our discussions. You are invited to share in our community, but please understand that you are not forced to edit pages in any way what-so-ever. Thank you for your thoughts. -- Tom 16:12, 23 Jan 2005 (MST)
