Hi Dennis,

Does your question mean that whenever something is not explicitly stated, the oposite is true? I'm a programmer too, but to me life's more like a "Case" than an "If" statement. ;-)

You reminded me of a philosophy professor that introduced me to some concepts first "coined" by a couple of fellas called Popper and Wittgenstein regarding logic and science.

Anyway, to answer your question, I had a great time during those years because I learnt a number of new things.

Right now I'm having a great time as well because I'm in a learning process again and am happy every morning when I wake up because I'm fortunate enough to do something that I love for a living.

Alex
