  Well, yes, in Indiana jones movies and the like. :)
Actually it was just meant as a slight tease because
it sounded very dramatic in the context.

   Thank you. It's interesting to hear what different people
are doing. The speed of change just seems to keep
accelerating and it's hard to guess what the future landscape
will be. I know a Java programmer who works for Nokia.
Java seems to have served him well... though one has to
wonder whether Nokia itself will survive!
