Well, I guess I was a little too optimistic. We seem to have a lot of coders here but not many of them seem to work on enterprise scale applications. At least not the ones that hang out in the Lounge.

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

For that you would need 1.21 MW and a DeLoreran.

I have been reading the editorial of this magazine from 1981.[^]. In case the link to the page only workes on my computer: It's on page 6.
