Programmers Hold Funerals for Old Code

E.TE.T Quote-o-matic
ROTFLOL :D

[quote]The cemetery is a quirky tradition among the programmers at LexisNexis, which provides online legal and business information. Rather than simply delete programs that are retired or replaced, they print them out for a proper send-off - not always with fond regards.

"The code wakes us up in the middle of the night," said Doug Perseghetti, who recalls the many times his fellow systems engineers and technical support workers are called in the middle of the night to fix system problems.

The name Blocker Hill was picked because the outdated equipment and code represented roadblocks to the company's future.[/quote][url]http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/C/COMPUTER_CEMETERY?SITE=INLAF&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT[/url]


This should have been made long time ago for many parts of Windows.
