I could, but there's this guy who frequents c.l.a. who gets annoyed at 
stuff that has been beaten to death before being recycled again and

PS: my two biggest peeves are out mode function params and downward
    funargs. I'd have been satisfied with Bob Duffs limited access to 
    subprogram but I know you wouldn't have. There are quite a few other 
    things too but those are fairly simple ones that I frequently miss.
