The villagers just might pour forth with flagons of burning oil, wooden
implements of agriculture, sack cloth and collective bad breath if we
don't get our "Install Everything" button back. You do know what they do

ugly. Worse, we can pry their keyboards from them while they still are
alive. <smirks> Ric
