Folks,

There are days (almost always when there are tight deadlines
on multiple projects) when you just don't need it!

I just spent five hours over two days (and woke up several
times last night thinking about it) chasing a most perplexing
bug, only to discover my favorite gotcha at the other end:

Memo to Self: Make DAMN sure what you pass to WHERE
is a scalar and not an array. ASSUME NOTHING!!!!

Who would have thought this:

name = OBJ_CLASS (classname, /Superclass)

would return a 1-element array!? Good thing I've lost
the key to the ammo case. :-(

Cheers,

David
