So tell me what could go wrong? ;-)

I realised while cooking the salmon this evening (crocodile being off the menu) that Geoff had inadvertently provided a wonderful case study on bugs. Any link to Geoff in the following is purely coincidental and nothing to do with him at all :-)

Once upon a time, an aspiring programmer wrote:
on mouseUp -- display the date
  answer the date with "OK"
end mouseUp
and released it as shareware.

The thing is, that is not a bug. The programmer did not make any error in his code at all. The code works as it was intended.

You could also claim that if a user in Japan downloaded the program and could not read it because it was in English and not Japanese, that he could say that the program has a bug.

Or a Linux user downloaded the Windows version, it would not run, so it must be a bug.

Your scenario is lacking completely, and rather a petty attempt to push your belief.
