good catch! I used to feel this way about my work, that I couldn't STAND for anybody to see it. then after a few years, I got pretty cocky about it and wanted to show it off. I also read a classic at the time, "egoless programming". i'm so glad your T finished her sentence! very interesting topic. also your total dismay at the nail snafu. I was just thinking this morning, how my mother forced me out of the house I grew up in, then a while later, when it hadn't sold, she was begging me to return until it did sell. I totally didn't understand. What were her needs, what were my needs? I finally decided that she couldn't be honest about any of them, but I could, and I would go with mine.
