Even so, the URL highlighter (making it clickable right from the window) is so indispensable, it makes not using PuTTY Tray a non-option. PuTTY needs this feature.

Even when you have to sometimes write SQL inside your ORM!
Maybe it is just that most people have never been exposed to properly formatted text emails?
I'm sure people find most of the websites they visit and the emails they read, filled with columns of extra garbage, to be cumbersome and difficult to read. Executives think that's what people want, but I doubt there has ever been an thorough examination of all the formats and their effects on people.
If you were able to observe that pain objectively with equanimity, meaning a) not averting from an experience you don't like or b) craving to have an experience you do like, wisdom about the nature of reality arises spontaneously.
More specifically, pain is not really what you think it is - some experience to shun worth avoiding at all costs. Watching the mind react to such an experience, and there are so many experiences that the mind is nearly hardwired to avert from or cling to, speak volumes. You will see how desperate it wants to stay in control of your experience and you should also note that because you can observe your mind, YOU ARE NOT YOUR MIND. Now you are starting to inquire into the nature of reality as-it-is, not as you want it to be.
Yes, you can sit against a wall.
One can take a 10 day course at many centers around the world to learn the technique from qualified teachers in its purity.
I knew about Vipassana for a long time but I did not attend a 10 day course until I was completely at rock bottom suffering from depression. Once I learned the technique, experiencing reality as-it-is for the first time in my life, it changed me fundamentally from the inside out. It was there that I found out that the results of my poor actions in this lifetime (and possibly others) were stored within my physical body and that I could remove them via observing them objectively without reacting to the sensations that came up via this observation. Having that direct realization meant that I could never go back to the ignorance of not being aware of how the law of karma has direct results upon one's experience of life. After the course had finished, I continued practicing Vipassana morning and evening for one hour each sitting for many months/years and continue to experience profound benefits.
I am much less angry and much more calm, much more adept at handling life's inevitable challenges. When I do find myself reacting strongly to certain situations, I am able to witness my reactions objectively and thereby reduce their negative effects swiftly. Emotions disturbances that used to persist for weeks are now gone in minutes.
I am happy and grounded in the knowledge that I have within my possession a technique to control my mind. That is a very liberating knowledge and worth pursuing for one's self!
I even chatted with an AT&T representative who could see that I had signed up, but couldn't tell me why no one had contacted me. And they also weren't able to sign me up for service either!
I'd love to know how much of the 46.1 million of the "PDF & Flash Platform Revenue" and the 274.1 million of the "Acrobat, LiveCycle, ColdFusion, Flex" is purely PDF related. How many people are buying Adobe Acrobat just to edit PDFs, documents that should be source code but aren't?
I just hate it when digital things become analog (or virtually analog, like PDF) and I doubly hate it that tools get built for editing the now analog digital document. Like OCR for Faxes, UGH!
