This article gives me an idea of what algorithmic writing is all about. Thanks -- does your name mean tree-fearing?

Yes - a bit of an inside joke from my last job. I rather like biological trees :)

I'm not sure. If you're asking if it's a marijuana reference (only other common meaning for trees that I'm aware of), then no. It's due to my (alleged) aversion to trees. EDIT: It occurs to me that you're probably asking about my 'liking biological trees' comment. I'm referring to the large plants made out of wood, there. Basically, I wrote some really slow, difficult to maintain code that operated on very, very large trees. I still work with many of the same people at a new company, and I still haven't heard the end of it.
