Just think about what 7 or 10 GB of programming represents...
it's incomprehensible ... approaching the complexity of our federal tax laws.

Do programmers EVER delete anything, or are they afraid they have a tiger by the tail,
and they can't let go for fear of being eaten alive.

I think it's ironic that chip manufacturers are stressed out making smaller and faster chips,
and programmers are eating up all that resource with archaic 0's and 1's.

Maybe someone will have the brilliant idea to copy/paste the concept of "sunset laws".
do you know how God was able to create the entire universe in just seven days?
