&gt; On 05:29 PM 5/13/99 +0100, I personally witnessed Ling jumping up to say:
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;Gosh, what am I doing listed amongst JC, Caliban and Yospe?!?!  
&gt; 
&gt; AGH! What am I doing in the middle of that?! Those people are PHYSICISTS!
&gt; Run away! Run away! ;)

I thought Mr Lawrence was a mathematician with slight leanings in odd
directions?  Anyway, before I get walloped...

&gt; &gt;The way I see it, I don't want to waste time working
&gt; &gt;on the low-level tasks like multiplexing sockets.  I wanna work on the
&gt; &gt;game, not the application!

[snip]

&gt; And like Ling says, I don't want to write network code! I want to write a
&gt; GAME! ;)

Having admitted that, I've spent the last two/three years doing various
bits of mudlib work, not going remotely near game stuff.  Apparently,
because of this, I'm a highly desirable coder.  News to me. 

At the moment, I'm quite amused with DGD.  So much so that I think I have
a mudlib that's just below acceptable, assuming the equivalent of
foundation is acceptable.  If anyone wants a copy, drop me a _private_
email.  I've had two happy shoppers (I think).
