   PROLOG is like riding a bike with your front directed backwards. Even if
   you are a good biker you will have a lot of troubles to ride a bike that way.

Of course, if you are a Prolog fanatic, you might say it's like discovering
that you have been facing backwards all these years.  It still takes some
time to adjust to turning around, but you'll be happier and more efficient 
when you are used to it :-)
