Sweet. Good to hear.
I wonder if more geo's were introduced to it if they would dig it too...I reckon they would :)
If they were real geos and not just in it for a desk job :P

Sheesh guys, take it easy. Isn't calling a programmer an engineer a bit like calling a housewife a "domestic engineer"?!
I mean after all, all programmers really do is to severely complicate simple things.
