    Does anyone know of a place where people are taught to close a door without almost smashing it off the hinges?

    I find that liberal application of the VBS generally solves such problems.

    Then again, liberal application of the VBS generally solves most problems, for those problems not sorted by the VBS I recommend upgrading to the XL-VBS (Available at all good hardware stores, today!).






    VBS: Very Big Stick

    Nothing annoys me more than people leaving doors open.
    Even worse, is when people dont close doors properly. They just kinda gently shut it and it only pops back open 5 seconds later. :mad:

    People can't seem to close the door to the creche I use, you have to key a code to get in and then parents leave the door open!!! There are signs to please close the door everywhere.

    But sure half of us are trained to make sure the tractor door is firmly closed to make sure the cattle don't escape from the cab. I think, I make a terrible culchie.
