Well, you know what.....

Clive used to have a wife. She left him 3 months ago. And while I cannot
lay the blame for that directly at the door of CS, I am reminded of the
night that I spoke to her after I came back from the meeting with the
solictor. Things were never quite the same again after I explained to
her the risk I had put myself, her and my family at, as CS was not a
legal entity and that if there was any legal liability to be
apportioned, it would be against me personally, and that as I did not
have the protection of a limited company, it could result in me (and us)
being bankrupted. I remember what she said. I'll never forget it. Image
a sentence about me be a stupid fool, but a little stonger and needing a
few bleeps and you wont be too far away. Things never were quite the
same. And they got even more "stressed" when I explained that the
dedicated "CS backup" internet connection that I was providing for the
"backup" repo server, which was in her name on the contract with the
internet provider, made her as liable as me. Now double the bleeps.
Maybe the above might server as a cautionary tale about how a little
late night coding on a "silly little internet project" can turn a whole
lot more serious, real quickly.

Fact or fiction.... You decide! ;)
