    Unfortunately, I've found far too many people ignore that rule.

    However, I do use it quite a bit.

    I am currently studying the negative correlation between how long I work into the evening before I go out and how much my head hurts in the morning. I believe that it shows that working longer hours is better for me.

    Regression is fun, it always ends up giving devs headaches while smug testers sit there grinning away with an "I told you so" look on thier face.
