Rule of Thumb for the Day....

John Carter

If you ever find yourself.....
* Writing or invoking a deep copy method or...
* Writing a whole lot of stuff to a file or pipe to be read by another
ruby script that promptly reads it all in again.

...ask yourself, "Do I really want to do this, or do I mean 'fork'?"
