Doing fun things that has nothing to do with programming give the ideas time to mature, and surface. And when I *do* program, I do it with energy and focus. If I only did programming, that would be a disaster for the production of ideas, not to mention what it would do to the body and mind. -- Emanuel Berg - programmer (hire me!
