Creating computer software is always a demanding and painstaking process
-- an exercise in logic, clear expression, and almost fanatical
attention to detail. It requires intelligence, dedication, and an
enormous amount of hard work. But, a certain amount of unpredictable and
often unrepeatable inspiration is what usually makes the difference
between adequacy and excellence.
