My Philosophy of Obfu: I have better things to do.

Not to be wet blanket on this discussion, but I've never understood why obfuscated code is interesting. Generally speaking, it relies on little understood quirks of a language, or worse, bugs, that someone with the appropriate pathology has devoted their time to committing to memory. My goal as a programmer is to write *good* code -- by which I mean correct, robust, extensible, and maintainable -- and I've never seen anything in any obfu anywhere that helped me to write good code.

In short, like my chemistry major roommate opined about my philosophy studies in college, it's mental masturbation. FWIW, I don't get Geek Code either.
