     Some of them can get so caught up in it that there is a real
question whether they are of the same species and whether they should
be classed as homo programmaticus.  This is much as whether
Neanderthal man should be homo sapiens neanderthalensis or homo
neanderthalensis.

     People are people, but programmers are something else.
