[Programming in C results in code that makes this necessary.]

Now that I've inflamed everyone with my opinion of C, I'll stir up the
hornet's nest some more by disagreeing with you all about guitarists.

John Williams is my favorite guitarist.  We're really comparing
apples and oranges here; he plays classical guitar and you folks seem
to be arguing about rock.  For some strange reason, I'm just more
impressed by masterful unraveling of the melodic and rhythmic detail
of say, a Bach lute suite than by listening to Eddie Van Halen scream
his guts out while trying to break his guitar strings.  

Just to show that I didn't leave all of my mind back in the 17th and
18th centuries, I'll point out that I also enjoy Earl Klugh's earlier
albums.  After "Crazy for You", sadly enough, they just don't seem to
be as good.
