HAHAHA!!!  I absolutley LOVE how the more computer illiterate and obnoxious people get with their computer problems, the more "supposed years" they've spent in the Computer Engineering and Programming field, according to them.  It's like when I did tech support for this one ISP, when an indian guy was shrieking at me that he was a high-paid system's administrator... and could not find the start bar for windows, or the Run comman prompt...  After threatening me with bodily harm several times, I snapped...  

"Look, you're a Sys Admin right?  What **** country is this company in, where people who can't even configure their own computer's IP settings are put in charge of an entire companies accounts?  Because by the sound of you tonight, they're obviously paying the wrong freakin guy!"

ah man... good times!

good gods....  that's not even a matter of being computer literate, it was laid out so stupidly plain, and with civility... that's a matter of mr. city council being an uppity jack___.   that kinda stuff ticks me off.  i break fingers for less.  seriously.

"I had a tuttle call me for tech support today. I hung up on him. What a tuttler."

No offense to the good people of that town, but that guy has just ruined your town's name.

I wonder if Wikipedia will approve those two new definitions!

Bloomin' Nora....That guy..."Yeah, I got 22 years of experience" => That doesn't mean you know everything about 'puters....
I hate that when it happens, it's very hard to keep calm. It seemed although he just didn't listen or try to find different ways around it.
Now come on...call the FBI? What going to raid the building he's working and threaten to kill him...silly silly man....

Maybe he means that 22 years ago he knew a lot about computers and got a degree in computer engineering.  I remember when I was in college we were studying Basic and Pascal as complex comuter languages so maybe I could claim to have 18 years of computer experience based on that.  The problem is that technology changes so fast that unless you keep involved you fall behind in a very short time making any experience you had meaningless.
