what I could with what time I had (what I could get authorized by
management to do) and things have been okay.

Let me clear this point: I am a little upset that this code was
written, but I am much more upset that it has been in place for
over ten years without being corrected.

It's a little wasteful to expend effort being irritated with that. You
should see some of the legacy
stuff from Mainframes. Stuff going back to 1964/1965 in some cases, and with
the source lost for a
couple decades or so. ;)

VMS is nice... :)
