I don't think that my memory goes back that far (on code).
Sounds like a bug. Oops. Well spotted.
(It does go back way further than that on other things. eg I went for a blood
test today. (Results will almost certainly be "we found blood - drink more
coffee")
I think that the last time I had one was almost 20 years ago. It involved
a small cramped hot waiting room at the back at the back of the hospital. That
hospital is gone now. (Flattened in the past 2 years). The woman who sucked
my blood today lives in a flat built on the site.
