I don't know why so many people think this exercise has been a waste of time. I 
have learned several interesting things from it, and I really enjoyed it.

To me, programming doesn't have to be about ROI or maximizing the efficiency of 
developer time (if I'm on an employer's dime, that's a different story of 
course!). To me, the joy can be in the journey, and even reversing strings can 
yield surprising enjoyment.

Thanks in particular to Levi and Sasha for the interesting points and code 
examples. And double thanks to whomever provided the python [::-1] example. 
That rocked.
