WARNING SOAPBOX MODE ON **********************************
Alas, I agree with everything you say, Greg. And I have to live
with lousy old C myself on a day to day basis. I sometimes wonder what
the moral difference is between programming in C and selling drugs to
school children for a living. Look at this; it's an egg. It's like
your CPU. Now break it open and lay it in a smoking frying pan to
bubble, boil, change colors and burn. This is your CPU on C code.
Think about it .
