Reminds me of the story about there being three types of statisticians: those that can count and those that can't............

Three easy steps: 

1) Paul is right. David is right. Pete is right. 
Peter is right. Ron is right. Ya is right. 
Ian is right. Charles is right. Karsten is right. 

2) Eschew subroutines. If you're allergic to coenocytic code, learn 
macros. 

3) If it ain't documented, ask on SAS-L. If it is documented, SAS-L 
will have more information. 

4) NEVER accuse anyone of programming 'like a statistician'. 


cur -- or, heavens forbid, like an Alaskan electrician.
