    I just took a survey about Software Development and one of the questions asked was if in the last year I have written code to target Netscape. :wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

      Netscape is a company, and maybe you could target a missile strike at their headquarters?

                I still know some people who are really good at playing Missile Command[^]. Mickeysoft Redshirts will not be very effective against me. Nor would their Stormtroopers. My old dad would probably still be able to deal with them.

                I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

                  Maybe it's just a legal way of saying, "We prefer someone older and with more experience." :-D

                    Either that, or you'll end up supporting an ancient legacy system that the business depends on.
