        One thing I was ponder the other day,   I wonder if anyone has
done a "study" on the most "common patterns" used.   I'll bet a large
percent use a "square" pattern or something like a letter..  Like the
letter "S"....  That's "S" as in "Secure" :)

If it wasn't for C, we'd be using BASI, PASAL and OBOL.
