Sweat.. if Alfred "and God created Alfred" Reynolds suggested it, it must be useful. I had trouble linking glowcode to my actual code, so it kept spitting out some incoherent gibberish. Someone suggested that I code better and not put leaks in my code in the first place.. This certain somewhere is sitting at the bottom of the ocean with concrete blocks attached to this feet.
