System overhaul

Being a multi state system is annoying when you realise you don't have editorial control over all output systems. Actually fixing this is a vexing thing, realising how you'd like your system to work and indeed how you thought it did, but then finding out that subsystems do not perform to specification. These sub systems you hadn't realised about or hadn't noticed, you thought. Or is it a fault of the whole system itself?
Noticing the problem in the first place is a first step. Making sure you don't forget it is the second.

I found a section that was did something I didn't like and was didn't want to be and I need to change this. I know what the systems specifications should be, but now I'm concerned that the whole system itself is flawed and the system is not what I thought it was.

Something will be done, debugging is required or re-wiring.

I need to make amens.

Clarity

Explanation of my prior post.

I made a comment last night that I caught after a few moments afterwards and thought "What did I say? Hey, morals and guidelines bucko.".
I have no excuses about alcohol or anything (I was stone cold sober) and it was casual conversation and it came out, making me realise that I am not who I want to be.
What did I say?
I commented on wearing a T-Shirt that said "Not an American."
A racist slur.
I know many Americans, they are wonderful people, sure they have flaws like every other person in the world but a blanket comment like that is totally unforgiveable.

So this is my apology and this is my steps to address a part of me that I don't like.

People can moan about America, but it has done many great things and it has many brilliant people in it, certainly it isn't perfect - nothing is - but look to yourself before you cast stones at some other target.

America has produced innumerable fantastic scientists, literary geniuses, designs, films, art and concepts.
If you want to stereotype (which I will in future avoid, as it's part and parcel of the same problem I suspect) what about their great "can do" attitude? Their ability to believe in themselves and what they can achieve?

For the Brits, so you might not like President Bush, you surely can't ignore the fact that Blair isn't exactly a shining example of a PM, and we have a chance to get rid of him real soon - are you going to do something about it?

I invite people to comment here and say something nice about America or Americans.

For myself I'd like to say that almost all the Americans I've met are people that I've invariably found to be friendly, helpful and great people to know. I have a good number of wonderful friends over the water (or staying over here) and I'm very glad to know them. This is to let you know that I'm going to do my bit to try and stand up for people that slag you guys off. When it comes down to it, they're people like you and me and they deserve as much time and respect as anyone from any other country, race or creed.

Negative comments will be deleted without question.
