These responses are far too tame ;-) Someone has to spoil the party, may as well be me! So the question is: wisdom of age vs youthful enthusiasm? personally I don't profess to having any of the former and only a little left of the latter. At least age gives you perspective, you get a chuckle out of statements such as "it's impossible to program modern computers in machine code" and get to see old ideas being regurgitated as The Next Big Thing.

ps: there would be some capital p's around here but I have just discovered that shift-p opens windows media player (xp sp2, ff 2.0.0.11) - anyone else have/had this problem and know what the solution is? Update: hmmm, for some unknown reason "Windows Media Player" was activated in taskbar/toolbars. Untick and back to normal. Very strange. Stuff like that makes me paranoid
