Umm; well, nobody around these parts would admit to being a nerd would they?

I have yet to become a Professional Software Developer . . . . . . .   :\

such a species will necessarily be using LiveCode.) If so, then importing any

photons.... That problem will be one of the knottiest the LC development team 
has had to tackle.

So you think that card creation would be racemic in nature? As many left handed 
cards as right handed? But surely someone would soon come up with a plugin that 
ensured an optically pure creation of new cards. Then we would be back to where 
we are now, purely left handed cards, as it should be.

But then 50% of cards would be created with a scrollbar - unless of course, these 
are all non-local, sitting in the anti-stack that can't be accessed because it's 
in the>90% of dark code that fills all hard drives.

That would explain the rumour that Time Machine was originally going to be 
called Space-Time Machine, but I'll resist considering why Parallels is really 
called that and instead, get some coffee! ;-)

Although, I suppose if you could group a card then you could scroll a card.
Actually, I believe empty cards do scroll.  ;)
