I'm glad you made the above comment.  I've often wondered if I was the only
one that despised understanding other peoples' code.

I'd like to make a semi-serious plug for NIH since this entire thread seems to
be against it....

Maybe it is a genetic defect, maybe it is a new form of ADHD....all I can
say is that it is *painful* for me to try to understand other peoples' code.

I've *left jobs* because integration work was too painful for me.  I much
prefer to code things myself.  I'll invoke a library but don't ask me to hunt
around the code for a bug.

Chris
