While I feel your pain, tldiz2007. There had to have been a day when you didn't know what you were doing and learned the hard way. You didn't descend from the sky a fully armed sysadmin. While I completely agree that blaming Apple is asinine, try to have some empathy. There's so much anger in these posts. Chill out folks!

Shouldn't one have to authenticate before deleting this directory? I have to sudo to make changes to the /usr directory; or, is this something Cocktail does for you in one stroke?

I think folks should be charitable and realize that there is a large community of folks who will require some hand holding when they screw up like this. Then again, learning to get a thick skin around *nix folk is part of the game.
