I am writing and posting this from the balcony while I eat lunch. Admittedly, there isn't much to recommend this except for hack value. I went to art school where I didn't exactly learn much about computers or computer science, but these days I would generally prefer to spend my time with the propeller heads than with the art stars. The latter still have what the former seem to have either lost or knowingly forfeited : an appreciation and celebration in the act of discovery and creation. In a word, hack value.
