Re: code currupt

Sorry, but you wore out your code. The only way to fix the problem is to print the source out and then type it all back in fresh. This also happens when you let code sit too long and it starts to rot.

But seriously, if your code suddenly stops working it means you either introduced a bug, or uncovered an existing bug.

Memory doesn't work that way.

What makes you so sure? It sounds like you're trying to blame everything but yourself, when the problem is 99.9% sure to be you.
