Half way joking. Gems are like stray dogs. Some people take home every
stray they come across, and you can't tell what you are going to get.
Me, I make the dog earn his room and board. So, I'm probably ok. But,
if I am bitten it will be because some gem I use has a dependency upon
a rogue gem. Like merb. It uses facets. My heart sunk the day that was
added.
