I'd also have to say "Let Him Go For It" also.

My first language was a machine code/assembler type thing on the Monroe 1666
programable calculator in 1972 or 3.  Didn't know that you weren't supposed
to be
able to get the thing to play tic tac toe.  "Sold" the program to Monroe for
a
new card reader for the thing (actually, I gave them the program, they gave
my HS
the reader).

Besides, pushing somebody off the end of the pier and watching them splash
around
can be fun.  Stand by with a life preserver, but frequently, they will
figure out
how to swim!!!
