Bugs eva'whur's, jus' eva'whur's.  I should know.  Major milestone this
afternoon, at which my project stands a good chance of sailing against the
current in the fecal effluvient, and me with no means of reactive
propulsion; been coding straight for 36 hours right now.  And hitting some
of those pretty MS VC++ bugs we've mentioned.  Makes me want to throw the
head of the MS Systems Language Division overboard, y'know?

Good point.  I sort of figured it would be up to a "standards' committee to
make that kind of judgement, anyway.  The great thing about standards is
that we have so many to choose from... <g>
