We *all* have done it. Every one of us has written our own, |perfect, and perfectly useless biorhythm program (note the correct |spelling) from scratch. It was the right thing to do. It was the |American| thing to do. It was part of |the process of growing up. That's why I say let (HIM) write his own |program. He'll be a better man, and a better programmer for it! :-) Well I admit it, but I didn't get it right. The predictions seemed reasonable, but a few weeks later when I found that my calculations were buggy, I became an instant skeptic. :-) Followups to alt.folklore-computers or sci.skeptic maybe.
