That's funny, but I don't know what to think since
it was a non-programmer.  Was our idea just wacky,
or was his outsider's perspective valuable in seeing
a solution which we insiders just don't immediately
see because we're too close to it?  (I had the sensation
of having a set of blinders fall from my thinking when
the idea struck me.  Sort of, "how come I hadn't
thought of it earlier?")

Oh well.

   Finally, please send responses to the newsgroup only.
   That means, do not send email directly to me.
   Thank you.
