I'm not sure if that's my clue phone ringing or not.  If it is and I don't pick up, hopefully they'll leave a message. [Edit: Why yes, that was my phone. Message received.]


On an unrelated note, after today I'm quitting this whole computer thing and am going to go raise goats in the mountains. You can reach me via homing pigeon.

It's a trade... use a standard naming scheme, with qualifiers, and every simple variable is 14 characters long with two underscores. Use an intuitive name... and history repeats. Particularly if one returns to a project, oh, a month after putting it down, to finish coding.

That would require completely rewriting this particular script; it would be a good idea to do someday, but not this week. Turns out that the feature I was working on isn't even needed in this particular set of data, so I commented out the offending block of code and will work on it before the next submissions.
