    A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    I hope he's glad he got the hell out of thatplace before a production failure that they never even cared to look-for was blamed on him. I've certainly seen good people get canned for that ... and they dusted the soles of their shoes as they departed.
