Hello from Milwaukee. Our April fool joke is a near blizzard (2 days ago
is was sunny in the 60s). While I was shoveling those 8 inches icon ideas
began to happen.
If we already have : Object Oriented Icon (IDOL)
X-Windows Graphics ICON (XICON, XIB)
Parallel processing (Well sort of)
ICON in VMS, IBM, DOS, MAC, UNIX and ....
Where is the next great frontier ??????

Wouldn't it be great to weave a web of worldwide interconnected megastring
scanning SQL squeezing RPCs to rightsize everything! Oh well, time to go in,
take off my boots. I've been stomping in it too much already. Ciao!
