    Well, clearly we would be a Generic Collection. Some less hygienic members would be a Heap<T> while our politer members would obviously be a Queue<T>

        That would probably just get shorted to A Dork, so might as well accept it up front.

              Do you have some problem with me? You sure seem to go out of your way to be negative to my posts. If so let it out. Passive aggression isn't healthy. Maybe that wasn't targeted at me but others seem to have to been.

                  I was thinking a Heap but I think a Hack of Programmers would be better.
