Hah! As a programmer I (rightly) consider it beneath me to actually run
or test anything. That's the job of you sysadmin types. I live in a
world of pure theory, where C++ actually does what you intended it to,
Perl is a language you can read as well as write, STL does not turn a 10
line program into 25 MB of object, and users tell you what really
happened.
Cheers,
Ben (and then I woke up).
