    I had a bad batch of prawns over the weekend and a bunch of people wanted to know what the hallucinations were all about. So here's a sample for the terminally bored:

    • The bottoms of all my white bowls turned a smokey red (scared the daylights outta me!)
    • The doors looked like they were opening even though they were obviously closed (think long and hard about that one!)
    • The roof started receeding (yeah, yeah, oldie but a goodie)
    • This was a dream that kept going after I woke: I was trapped in a Universe that was constrained by the dimensions of a long iron bar (it made sense at the time). Not only the physical dimensions (ie the whole galaxy was constrained to 6' x 2" x 1/2") but the physical laws were very contrained so that it was very difficult to do anything (like move). This became boring so the Universe then evolved into something completely unrestrained. It was infinite and the laws of physics were whatever you wanted them to be. I spent a lot of time making plastacine creatures evolve and fly around, and then became bored when there were no longer any challenges and so longed again for the constrained version which at least presented a challenge

    The last one got me thinking though: Would programming be as interesting if compilers could interpret what you wanted and 'Just Do It'? I'm thinking not. cheers, Chris Maunder

        You have real problems. Anyone who hallucinates like that needs special care. Considering your thought pattern now while you are supposedly well shows the problems could return. Make sure you keep your fluid levels high. Regardz Colin J Davies

The ultimate high level language. People have tried this many times. I remember seeing an article about 10 years ago about a programming language called something like "The big one" which claimed to do away with programmers, since it was so simple that anyone could create applications. (Of course it succeeded and the last 10 years have been a delusion)
