I'm insulted. Programming is a craft. That's why I find MS so revolting!

I apologize. Most of my family are programmers, or have been at some point. I think of crafts as creating something tangible, but I see your point. I thought flow charts were lovely puzzles (back in the early 60's), but I soon lost track of progress. That was when a computer took up a small building or several rooms in a facility. I'm more a visual person, so it made a bit more sense to me back then. When things become invisible, I just file them away in my "magick" book.

I don't really consider needlework something to be automated. It's what you do when you want to get away from automation!
