Happy Lunar New Year
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

And same to you.

I'm actually in China, Dalian, at the moment, and the sheer number of fireworks going off is unbelievable. If they set all these things off at the same time it'd dwarf any national gregorian new year fireworks display easily. It's some sight.
Watch out for the Guns! They'll getcha!

Yeah, there are some pretty big ones going off over here. So many are making car alarms go off.....
