| Ah, so I have been speaking prose all my life without knowing it.

On the contrary, Leif, in a couple respects...!  Your prose resonates a
quality, and is so eloquent, that it qualifies as poetry.

And you're one-a the few people that, though not self-acknowledged, the word
"genius" actually applies.  Bought a book (but don't think I read the whole
thing) decades ago by Edsgar Dyskstra (sp?).  Recall the line why I bought
it, still.  (Paraphrased very poorly:)  "Good clean code has an intrinsic
BEAUTY to it, and is a work of art."  On that score, you are obviously one-a
the masters of poetry...:-D
