*cackle*

I also read the Dr Dobbs article, you must have stolen the author's
parking spot or something.

Actually I enjoyed it because it was classic DDJ, all the talk about
academic point of view. Rarely do I ever see "academics" doing much
to help the rest of the community.

Technically I'm an academic (although a poor one) so this statement
isn't prejudiced.

I also could care less about reinventing the wheel, if I get
to own my own wheel and put my name on it.. and paint it yellow...
