- They were uninterested ? And you were surprised ?

- I find the easiest way or getting a message like contact Acorn is
- to enter the debugger then go to lunch. By the time you get back it
- is usually plastered across the screen. I think its a feature so that
- you wont strain yourself debugging for long periods.

- Yes compare the phrases "Software Engineering" and "Program Hackers" in
- your favourite Software Engineering Book.
