Not only that, but he took on a long list of other projects nobody wanted to touch before I accidentally marooned him in that particular quagmire. I had no idea what a wretched job it was going to turn out to be, and I'm extremely grateful I've been able to avoid having to know anything about any of that code for this long. I don't want anybody to read into my comments that I'm wagging my finger at Chris Fryer here, or that I'm disappointed, or unappreciative. Hell, the guy worked on code all through his vacation in Spain for crying out loud. I'm just being realistic about big ideas that are vapor ever coalescing into anything, and how to roll on if they don't. If this fancy curve thing doesn't happen, it's right up there with a laundry list of other ideas we've all had every intention of getting done eventually, and have still failed to get done. -- D.
