Here’s the thing - I’m an old programmer. Emphasis on old. I know tp, tp++, c, c++, c#, assembly (mostly on x86 and SPARC and java. I’ve done some javascript, but I’ve grown to absolutely loathe web programming. First front-end, but now also back-end as it moves more and more towards javascript.

I guess there’s a lot of flac going around, so I just wanted to say something nice. While CC is trying to fix some pesky css bug that I would hate to even try to break my spirit over.
