Legacy

Today I ate lunch with Gary and Jeff.  I worked with Gary and Jeff at DTI; I got them both hired at F50, but Jeff went back to DTI.  (Long story.)

Jeff starts talking about how he's been knee-deep in database code lately.  "Your code is better than most, Jonathan.  At least you left comments showing you actually thought things through."

Gary laughs.  "That's not the only thing he left!  I remember there being an almost one-to-one correspondance between 'damn' and 'jbe.'"

Gary didn't explain what prompted him to study this phenomenon.
