i haven't the slightest clue, and not one of them has been able to explain it to me, despite offering them thought/role-playing experiments such as: You are venturing through some deep, dark code and come across the following runes written on the wall: /* PRT-123 */ What do you do? The answer, invariably (and correctly), is "go look up that ticket number in Jira." RIGHT! But they still don't like seeing it. Seems to be just a force of habit. -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal "Freedom is sloppy.
