    See, now I've got a mental image of Ogden taking off his glasses and
    shaking his hair down. "Why! Miss Ogden! You're... still an ugly
    bastard."

    I have already made the greatest contribution to the fight against climate
    change that I can make: I have decided not to breed. Now quit bugging me and
    go and talk to the Catholics.

    I think this is one of the most disturbing things i've read on here
    for quite some time.

    I'm reassured, that by your decision not to procreate, such
    aberrations will mercifully be contained within our lifetimes ;)

    I believe it does.

    Anyway, just to check, I did it again, and it seems the text changes
    each time.

    "Your speed was: 106wpm.

    Congratulations! You made no mistakes, practice does make perfect."

    Piece of cake.

    for some reason he seems to be trying to assert himself as ukrm-alpha-
    nerd at the moment, taking over the mantel from Phil.

    Like that'd be much of a challenge.

    Particularly when you can knock up a Perl script to do it for you in a
    few seconds.

    I've never had pretensions to be the ukrm-alpha-nerd.. I'm quit content
    to be the purveyor of a wide range of bits of useless information that
    nobody really cared about anyway..

    Being a JAOT is pretty useful sometimes.

    Perl?

    I'd reckon Ogden's proficient in a much nerdier and obscure scripting
    language - maybe Jython or Ruby.

    Never used Ruby, never even heard of Jython.

    I tried INTERCAL once, mind.

    as you might expect, it's an implentation of Python, written in Java.
    me, I'm strickly a Z-Code guy, running on the Parrot Virtual Machine,
    natch.
