Yeah, written like a typical person who doesn't program in Assembler.

Thanks for the reminder of basic manners.  A lot of people from a wide 
range of programming backgrounds have learned Rev easily with the help 
of the folks here.  But pissing in someone's Wheaties rarely engenders 
warm fuzzy feelings of helpfulness.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm due at a cocktail party where I'm looking 
forward to spend the evening insulting the hostess and bitching about 
the hors d'oeuvres....
