Please don't let Chuckie write that CP Initialization code! We're likely
to see "self-explanatory" messages something like:
HCPMCL0028W MCL is missing or not valid.
Of course, the Messages and Codes manual for such a message from Chuckie
would say something like:
Message: HCPMCL0028W MCL is missing or not valid.
Explanation: MCL is missing or not valid. Can't you READ!? RTFM!
System Action: System refuses to initialize and there's nothing
you can do to make it do so! Nyah-nyah
User or Operator Response: Contact your Systems Programmer, who
will have no idea what to do but pretend that she/he does for a while.
Too bad this isn't April 1. :-)
