My friend's fiance found this quote yesterday. I wish I knew who said it.

"Give a man a program and you'll frustrate him for a day. Teach a man to program, and you'll frustrate him for the rest of his life."

@Podge. Yeah, I'm familiar with the proverb, and have seen variations before. I just hadn't ever heard this particular one. I'd love to shake the hand of the first person who came up with this one.
