According to tzs@carson.u.washington.edu (Tim Smith): >Uh, nearly everyone I've heard of who wrote a spreadsheet was a programmer! People will do for money lots of things they won't do for fun. Those who write (as opposed to maintain) free software generally do it for fun, not for money. And there's not much money in giving things away. -- Chip Salzenberg at Teltronics/TCT <chip@tct.com>, <73717.366@compuserve.com> "you make me want to break the laws of time and space / you make me want to eat pork / you make me want to staple bagels to my face / and remove them with a pitchfork" -- Weird Al Yankovic, "You Make Me"
