[edit] Professional Quote
If painters paint and fishermen fish, software engineers, well... we write code. While there is a time and place for Powerpoint, I often find the best way to convey an idea is to just do it. It is a rare occasion to get it right the first time; so, iterate without fear of starting over from scratch. ‘Audentes fortuna juvat.’[10] (Fortune favors the bold.) - Gennaro "Jerry" Cuomo, 2006
