I'm entirely with MarcS on this one.  I've spent wayyyy too much of my life
dealing with hacks like the above.  Such can be useful if forced into
a nonsensical situation (e.g. find an openly communicated way to
beat the stock market), but I think we are much better off getting away
from such nonsense.
