He also brought up the "fonts too small in the game itself" matter, which opened the door. Our client finds your remarks libelous and intended to inflict emotional distress. Expect service of process and a telephone book sized set of interrogatories shortly. Yours in nuisance litigation, Soo, Grabbit & Runne, attorneys at lust

Do you really want packs of unemployed ferral lawyers roaming the streets?

Must be LMF (Lack of Moral Fibre)! Hasn´t happened to me yet after 20 years. Yikes! I´m playing WitP - does that count as having gone insane? Seriously - while COBOL is rather verbose (worse than BASIC), it gets the job done, gives you good control of data structures and records, built-in decimal arithmetic without any cumulating errors due to rounding effects, the compilers are generally stable and don´t put curious little side effects into your programs for your amusement (and to make debugger sellers rich). Since COBOL85, you don´t even have to use GO TO anymore, if you don´t want to. I have, however, the deepest compassion and sympathy for those who have to write stable, complex applications using C++ - their work is never done. BTW, IIRC they (SSI) wrote "Carrier Strike" on Turbo Pascal. Maybe, if they hadn´t switched to C and C++, it wouldn´t take so long to fix the bugs in WitP.

So, you're in a locked room - no way out - with a lawyer and a man-eating tiger. You've got a gun with two bullets in it. What do you do? Shoot the lawyer - twice - just to be sure.

What do you get when you cross a lawyer with a snake? Nobody knows - there are some things snakes absolutely refuse to do.

A physician, an engineer and a lawyer were arguing about whose profession was the oldest. The surgeon announced, "Remember how God removed a rib from Adam to create Eve? Obviously, medicine is the oldest profession." The engineer replied, "But before that, God created the heavens and the earth from chaos, in less than a week. You have to admit that was a remarkable feat of engineering, and that makes engineering an older profession than medicine." The lawyer smirked, and said, "Who do you think created the chaos?"

A holy man died and went to heaven. St. Peter was giving him the 25 cent tour, pointing out the heavenly features. As they walked down one street, the holy man saw a huge mansion, much more opulent than anything he had seen, and he inquired about why it was so fancy. "Well," said St. Peter, "That's where a lawyer lives." The holy man was aghast. "St. Peter, why does a lawyer, of all people, deserve such a wonderful palace in which to live here in heaven?" St. Peter said, "Do you realize how few lawyers get in here?"
