>To be fair, I find that after about 8-9 hours code is gibberish and my logic sucks. Didn't used to be that way, so I guess age is a factor.

>>>A few years back at MS Cathy Pountney and I worked in the VFP lab until well after midnight (setup testing I think, Cathy?) and I recall starting that day a bit before 9 AM. I can also recall when I was doing cruise ship inventory and sales systems being up against hard deadlines (end of cruise) and putting in over 24 hours reconciling sales with inventory versus the ship's mainframe and our little Fox app.

Charles Hankey

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
