You have been programming for too long 


Some people have been on the computer too long. Here is an actual
e-mail message that I sent to everyone. The original message under
the Forward Header was sent to IS for a PC problem and I was copied
in to keep the record. I sure did.

     Here is a good cnadidate for Nerd Baton. Mahendra claims that it was 
     easier for him to write it in code than to explain it to Danny in 
     words. 
     
     Anybody there to second it.....

     Danny,
     
     I have the following two problems for a while.
     
     switch(PC problems)
     {
        case 1: /* PC hangs */
        {
           In the evening
     
           if (turn off the power == TRUE)
           {
              No problem
           }
           else /* (turn of the power == FALSE) */ 
           {
              1. next day morning the PC system clock shows some time in  
                 the previous night
     
              before doing anything further in the morning.... 
              if (reboot the machine == TRUE)
              {
                 do
                 {
                    reboot
                 }while (!see Pern)
              }
              else
              {
                 1. the system crashes
                 2. need to press reset button (most of the time)
                 3. while reboot time get the complaint about not shutting 
                    down the Windows'95 properly, Scan disk,.. blah,blah,..
                 4. forced to reboot again
     
                 do
                 {
                    reboot
                 }while (!see Pern)
     
              }
           }
        }
     
        case 2: /* PC doesn't see Pern (H:) while booting */ 
        {
     
           /*
              While booting, most of the time, there is problem in  
              connecting to Pern. However after multiple tries (boot) 
              2,3,4,5,..... finally I could succeed.
            */
              do
              {
                 reboot
              }while (!see Pern)
     
        }
     }
