There might be a teenie, weenie, little distraction that could possibly delay your ability to continue doing what you .........

Where do you go to school to specialize in a job to come up with the text for error messages on computer programs?

I seriously need to visit those classes. Hopefully, error messages aren't something you'll see often, but if you do, well, then the message should be direct and to the point.

We got some updated software recently and I've seen my share of error messages that appear to have been developed by someone who didn't want to be too direct or commital. Instead of the "OK" I think it should say "ah shucks"

And the heartbeat ?!? The Tin Man didn't have a heart - neither does my computer. But I must say, if my computer does have a heart, then it needs to see a cardiologist.

And here's something that makes me scratch my head. When the "heartbeat" problem results in being disconnected, I then have to click out, so I can log in again. When I do this, I get a box that states, "Are you sure you want to quit?" ------- what's that all about?
