Hello, Well, I just admire any programming language--or any game creation language, where you can write statements like: A thing can be either known or unknown. A tthing is usually unknown. And then logic comes up when you can say that things happen wheen such and such a thing is known, etc. I just love that. I got an interesting reaction from somebody the other day, a friend of mine in computer science. I showed him a fragment of I7 source code. His first question was: "This is code?" I said it was, which was true. He next asked, "Does it work?" I said yes, because it does. He said something like, "I'm impressed," and walked off. Just some thoughts, Zack.
