note jepri While we're on the funniest messages topic, when shutting down UML recently I saw "Alert! Inodes still open! Self destructing in 3 seconds". Kind of funny when you realise that there's sod all you can do. Even powering off won't help the situation...<P> As for funny variable names, I occaisionally find myself writing things like <code>if $action{$action}</code> in my code, or creating files called <code>smack</code> and <code>please</code> so I can type <code> prompt> more smack please</code><P> Other reannual favourites are things like <code>stupidlylongvariablename or HFV(the human-friendly variable)</code>. For CGI scripts running under mod_perl, my favourite jump target is <code>the_edge:</code>.<P> Hmmm. I think my sense of humour needs a brush up. <p><A HREF="/index.pl?node=Tk%20app%20to%20show%20the%20computers%20you%20are%20connecting%20to&lastnode_id=1072">_</A><A HREF="/index.pl?node=ForkMe&lastnode_id=1072">_</A>__________________<BR> Jeremy<BR> I didn't believe in evil until I dated it. 156816 156816
