I don't have a redit account, and have no intention of getting one to add 
to my ready supply of daily spam.

So I can't see that bit of handiwork, but that doesn't stop me from 
doffing my hat in respect as I've done things like that in the distant 
past when my mind was a bit more agile. The most difficult and time 
burning part is getting into the original builder/coders head. Fail at 
that, and the project will likely fail, succeed at that, and the rest of 
it almost always falls into place in a few days. Much faster than your 
hands can build it.
