[Cialug] March Meeting - 3/20

> Both are simply TOOLS

Your analogy is dead on arrival.  The apostle Paul's brilliant insight
concerning tools does not apply.  Please don't take it personally as I
dissect the corpse.

A hammer is a tool, but it is not an active agent dubiously endowed
with corporate-style personhood, deep pockets, and a history of
disregarding a great deal of what society has built up over the last
many decades.

A hammer does not dangle a lollipop in my field of view and reach into
my back pocket as I reach for said sweet.

But, if you don't mind your hammer swinging you, then by all means let
it have at you.
