yes. no error checking, no attempt at self improvement and above all no patience when it comes to waiting for an answer. ... > I call 'ballistic' code: code you have no control over once it launches. > Guided missiles are far better. might I suggest that the word 'better' shouldn't be used to describe any kind of missile other than a decommissioned one. 'better' ways of killing people are things generally only sought after by fundamentalists, arms-industry employees and megalomaniacs (it just springs to mind that a certain leader of the [not so] free world could happily sit in any of those categories) gun analogies suck almost as much as guns, as opposed to good old rant, which, as long as they're not combined with guns are fairly harmless and quite often informative.
