If you have to think twice about it, you're wrong.
     soma cheap soma The Magician of the Ivory Tower brought his latest invention for the
     master programmer to examine. The magician wheeled a large black box into the
     master's office while the master waited in silence.
      "This is an integrated, distributed, general-purpose workstation,"
     began the magician, "ergonomically designed with a proprietary operating
     system, sixth generation languages, and multiple state of the art user
     interfaces. It took my assistants several hundred man years to construct.
     Is it not amazing?"
      The master raised his eyebrows slightly. "It is indeed amazing," he
     said.
      "Corporate Headquarters has commanded," continued the magician, "that
     everyone use this workstation as a platform for new programs. Do you agree
     to this?"
      "Certainly," replied the master, "I will have it transported to the
     data center immediately!" And the magician returned to his tower, well
     pleased.
      Several days later, a novice wandered into the office of the master
     programmer and said, "I cannot find the listing for my new program. Do
     you know where it might be?"
      "Yes," replied the master, "the listings are stacked on the platform
     in the data center."
