The ideal thing would have been to take this big file and break it into smaller bits - cfcs or includes or custom tags, however that wasnt an option apparently.
Since the actual work was only a 5 minute job but it took most of the day to do, his decision not to have comments anywhere was an expensive one. I'm assuming that plenty of people before me had done similar work on this file too, so add up all that extra cost as my predecessors and those following me waded through the mud on this file and the absence of comments has probably cost many many times more than the original cost of writing the file did.
