Seeing as how we have all these elitist CS guys here, I'll throw this out. Take the fundamental theorem of calculus. It's brain-dead easy to use! You spend the whole blasted semester (or more depending on how your school treats integrated, differential...) just proving the darned thing. The actual explanation of how you arrive at it can be complicated as can be, but the actual theorem is simple to use despite its' innate complexity. Why? It's predictable! Ghost heat is only predictable if you RTFM and know about it prior to playing. That just makes it as straight-forward as a bunch of girls trying to get ready for prom when there is only one dress to choose from. You end up with a bunch of stupid solutions that seem totally random and arbitrary (must wear a shoe that has a sparkle three cm to the left of the heel on the left foot, unless the 9th hair follicle sprouted on a Thursday, in which...) One is an elegant solution, the other is bat-schtick crazy...Kind of like ghost heat (the ac 20 is okay if fired in rapid succession unless the mouse is pointed at a dev, in which case it must only be used in groups of one which the zero may be used against you in the court of law, and gauss cannot remember to stay charged unless the energy systems cannot charge on the third blartlesday of the 15th month of zorph)
Ah, now I see why it entered jettisoned communication.
Carry on.
