Thou shalt have no other gods before the ANSI C standard 1434

A bit of background so my comments will make more sense, when I talk about things my wife has done. She has a serious lung disease, which should have done her in about ten years ago. But it hasn't, and she is doing fairly well. That means she can still walk a bit on her own, can drive. Full time oxygen is required, and a lot of meds. Yesterday she decided to make dinner. Big activity for her, cannot do it without help. She does a really good "clbuttic steak dinner", better than anyone I know. I had picked up some prime NY steaks, and a very good Napa Valley Zin. When we were done, we discussed this thread for about an hour.

Yes, there were actually two people that had to be removed to make the mess go away. One she fired, one got moved to a different division of the company. Then it was possible to start the process of forming a functional group from the rest.

I found out that the M.I.T. brat had sent an email to my wife many years later thanking her for the "push in the right direction" and explaining it had been the critical event that got him going on a very successful career. You don't often get that kind of feedback.
