There have been times when I have quite liked programming for myself. There have 
been other times when I wished I never wanted to see another keyboard & screen 
ever again. Even an ATM. The Myth code is quite heavy to get your head around if 
you've just spent all day in some bizarre financial settlement system written in 
VB by an infinite number of monkeys.
