En un viejo país ineficiente, algo así como España entre dos guerras civiles, poseer una casa y poca hacienda y memoria ninguna. -- Gil de Biedma

LOL!  I used Hexadecimal Art to pass my Motorola Exercisor programming class. We had to write a working program in assembly language, but had not been shown drivers for monitors or printers.  Most of the other students were old hands and already knew these tricks, but this was my first, (and last) programming course. So I played with the sixteen characters I was given and realized I could write a recognizable "word" thus: F001F00D.  So I wrote a program that was: Set Pointer xxxxxxxx, Load Register A F001, Store A, Increment Pointer, Load Register A F00D, Store A, Increment Pointer. There was also something with the counter. Then we used Dump to examine the register and there it was: a register full of foolfood.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
