Mike's Ramblings...

I have a German colleague in Houston who may fit the flip-side of that equation. He's definitely one of our design gurus, and has clear ideas about how things should be done. I'm getting used to him giving answers that can be paraphrased as "All you need to do is ". The trouble is that "all you need to do" usually seems to work out as the programming equivalent of, oh, say, performing, blindfold, a series of flawless triple-back-flips through burning hoops on the back of a galloping horse. He clearly lives in an orthogonal universe. ;)
