Well said.

It never ceases to amaze me, how perplexed and frightened to the point 
of bedwetting some people are in simply editing a damn text file or two. 
You only have to learn it once, gang. It's simple. It takes 2 minutes to 
sit down and understand, and it frees you from the need to rely upon 
your distrib's network configuration tool of the week, or ANY tool, for 
that matter.
