In the eighties, everybody was talking about code reuse and how it would be the future and how all of our problems would go away. Not we have people throwing together code that consists entirely of library calls without actually understanding what those library calls are really doing. >I think the problem is pretty much solved now.

We need to add two numbers, so why not just link in this giant math library? --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis."
