New to this whole programming thing, hm?

The books make it all look so easy...

main()
{
  printf ("hello world\n");
}

But alas, Rob spends over a year trying to satisfy the incessant demands
of people (to be polite) like you, getting paid $5/hour the whole time,
and you can do nothing but whine and moan.

Charming.

Disgustedly,
Marc
