i really do appreciate your response, but as usual i would like to throw in my two cents.

it is my opinion that an "improperly designed and/or managed chat" can seem like a cancer.

i have been writing code since 1983. my first computer was an atari 400. my first programming language was Atari Basic.

i fell in love with that machine when i first laid eyes on her when she sitting in two milk crates in a pawn shop in houston texas.

i bought my first C language compiler/IDE in 1991 for $70.00 from egghead software in houston texas on westheimer road.

before i had been writing C code for even two years, i caught an eight month jail sentence for passing a $13k counterfeit cashiers check that i had designed using Corel draw professional and printed using an ordinary HP deskjet printer. My checks were gorgeous.

While i was incarcerated, i had a job writing C programs while i was in jail. I wrote these programs by hand using a pen and paper. The largest program that i wrote while in jail was 43.5 legal pad pages long(double spaced). It was a full featured database manager of a flat file dialing database for an automated telemarketing system that i had designed for a client in houston.

when i would finish writing the software, i would mail the code to my client/friend and he would key it in and compile it and run it according to my instructions.

My code was absolutely flawless.

This database manager allowed him to Create a record, edit a record, save a record, delete a record and search for a record. The origninal database was acquired from the coles company that produces the Coles Criss-Cross Directory. We purchased the datafile from that company.

I am fairly detail oriented when i want to be.

I was able to write that program, entirely from memory, entirely writing the code by hand using a pen and a legal pads. I had no computer. I had no keyboard. I had no mouse. I had a pen and paper. I had not one single chance to test compile the code.

The code was absolutely perfectomundo.

There is very little in this world that i love more than writing C code.

I have experience writing websites, back in the early days of the net, i would write my website code as a CGI using linux and the gcc compiler. My preference is to include ALL of my code into one or perhaps two source files. I like it that way. I have written website code in C language that was as large as perhaps 25,000 lines long.

Kind Regards,

Edward.
