Rich Cook - "Programming today is a race between software
           engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot- proof

 O.K., so he was pretty protective of that one too, but I'm talking about
 the tools that you make stuff with...well, sure, I suppose he DID make
 _me_ with that particular one, but...OH NEVERMIND.  My dad always told me
 that if some alien came around trying to borrow my phillips screwdriver
 that I should just stab him/her/it/them with it."
