Comment (by MichaelCrawford):
Long time no see.
I apologize for leaving this so many years. I live in Washington State
now but left my Dell Dimension in storage in California with the
assumption that I would quickly find work then have the cash to fetch my
stuff with a U-Haul truck.
That this hasn't worked out is rather a sore point with me; just now I
applied for a carpentry job.
I realized as I wrote my letter of application that I was always far, far
happier working in construction than in any software industry job I have
_ever_ had.
I enjoy writing code what I don't enjoy is working in what I regard as a
profoundly corrupt industry.
I don't know that I'll get this specific carpentry job but I do know there
is a significant construction boom in the Portland/Vancouver metro area
and that I already own all of my own tools, everything from a contractor's
(ie. not hobbyist) table saw to a full-size blacksmith's anvil.
I still want to fetch all that stuff. I'll find some other kind of work
Real Soon Now; I expect I can complete on this bug by the end of the year,
possibly by mid-Autumn. Maybe the bug no longer occurs but if it does
quite likely I can write the patch that closes it.
