I suspect that I was programming in BASIC before you were even born.

Golly, that really put me in my place didn't it?
If what you say is true (...before you were even born), don't even dream you
can have the last word!!!
The days when children were seen and not heard is long gone. And don't you
just hate that!
All these young, loud, enthusiastic, articulate, brash, switched on,
unstoppable, totally resiliant (take note) kids who are potentially smarter
at 13 than you have ever been or will ever be. That's gotta hurt.
Have a nice life, or what's left of it. Or better still, try to be nicer. We
won't accept anything less.

PS SK don't bother directing any additional programming advice to me; you
lost all credibility with your first response to my post.
