There was a guy from IT up here showing someone how to make their bluetooth headset and they started talking about how they should have spread us out more in the temp space we are using... then the IT guy says "Bad Dalton"

Apparently there is a person here by that name and he was responsible for cramming us like sardines in a room and using only 1/2 the space available... the entire room is already wired (both power and network) so people sometimes have questioned the wisdom..

if coincidences are such coincidences why do they seem so contrived

That is the sort of thing we refer to as nominative determinism

I think I am more saddened than anything else to think that people with that name are doomed to such an existence...

I still remember with gladness the very first time the resonance of "dammit dalton" was uttered. It has such a ring to it, and was used with such frequency and emphasis, yet still carries with it....power. Yes, power.
