Maybe your *friends* in New York.  Would you trust an average New York
cabbie or hot dog vendor to write some subroutines for you?  I
certainly wouldn't.  How about the guy driving the garbage truck?  How
about the waiter that has to look at the cash register to make change?

I suspect that overall, the number of flashing 12:00s on VCRs in new
york is not much different from that of Iowa. :) And on that, I rest
my case.
