POPSRecurse Words Recursion's a bitch. There's no two ways about it (just the one... that goes around and around and around). Fortunately for us, humans were written in a clumsy enough manner that they simply break when they're presented with infinity rather than commit to the loop. It's a nice feature really. As a librarian, having a perfect memory would be incredible. As a human, I'm glad I forget - Some old guy I saw on Derren Brown once It makes me understand the blue screen of death a little better. It's not like your PC can drink to forget. It just breaks down and starts pouring out it's stream of subconscious hexadecimal misery on your parade. You reset, the power surge flushes the ram and we're back. Suddenly the PC is dreaming again! Harbouring ambitions of rendering webpages, and counting string lengths. It's full of life, fresh faced and oblivious to it's former concern. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind.
