Nope.

If Prof. Plum did it in the Billiard Room with the lead pipe, why does 
motive *matter*?

I'm sure my mother asks herself that every day.

and not necessarily in that order.  Don't ever tell my boss, but I'd 
probably code for free, just because it's so much fun.  Remind me to send 
you my magic 8-ball program someday.

If I had a job at UPS hauling boxes around, I'd still program for fun.  Does 
that count?  The fact that I get paid for doing something I love to do just 
makes me one of the lucky ones.

Amen!  Time to put together a prog-ified version of 'Birds'.  Anyone have 
access to a mini-moog?
