Son, back in the good old days, when men were men, we wrote tight code. Never crashed, and if it did, we knew how to put patches in through the front panel. Today's namby pamby users want everything handed to them on a widget. I still do my html editing in the raw, and make my own images bit by bit in a hex editor. Reminiscing about the frontier days in computing, and getting teary eyed. Signed: Gramps.
