i guessing the *'s are sarcasm or flaming so let me respond.  
 
did i say "never" ?? no.
 
I personally have only been effected once _severely_  after patch Tuesday. 
 
 But think about it,  the testing scenarios that exist on planet earth can not possibly be even accounted for let alone tested in Redmond.

This explains why we *never* *ever* see stuff 2 days after Patch Tuesday where
people are reporting "this slight variant still works" because Microsoft always
gets to the *root* of the problem and fixes it *right*, rather than just fixing
the one already-known manifestation....
