This is part of a creative expression, why damper the excitement when some
have waited (literaly) for years. Enthusiastic expression generates
synergism and I think that is the basis of real creativity. If we were
talking a data base management system or spreadsheet in stuffy shirts and
blank ties then I would absolutely agree!
