FWIW I've done a few rather more complex programming solutions over the years. An early and very effective real-time ACD for example, spawning specific campaign questionnaires to the operator's workstation. Building a suite of programs that analysed the feed requirements of a dairy herd to optimise milk quota production for another. Just got bored with having to learn new languages (about 8 of them and fifteen different Operating systems) and moved ton to rather more difficult challenges. Coders these days are just another resource variable afaic.Blog? What blog...?Comment
