My first bit of code ran successfully in 1969.  It was on cards.

I've learned a few important lessons since:

"There are no stupid questions" except the ones that aren't asked, of 
course.

Whenever possible, ask someone whose been there.  The good guys will share.

Don't ignore "shared pain" -- always pay attention.

I'm reading all of comments carefully and trying to figure out how best 
to implement them.

I've read through the RFC more than once, and it's hard to find a place 
to start.
