Trying to access the board this morning I got an error message:
I thought that was too cool.
I totally agree with that error message.
I got an error message, too. I should have bothered to read it. One never knows when a PROFOUND TRUTH will appear!
HEY! Alla youse, stop rooting around in my computer!!!
It’s so cool that you mention this! When I forget to program in an end frame on my Digital Video Editor I get:
“Frame rate error: End value approaches infinate”
Always sounded very profound to me.
Sounds kind of mathematical to me. Just what would the frame rate be as the end value approached infinity?
Time for a little calculus.

I don’t know Dragwyr, but I’m guessing I’d have to use some kind of REALLY REALLY expensive videotape and I might only be able to screen my film inside a Black Hole.
this reminds me of the contest at salon awhile back to propose haiku error messages:
e.g.:
No keyboard present
Hit F1 to continue
Zen engineering?
Errors have occurred.
We won’t tell you where or why.
Lazy programmers.
