Xcott Craver writes "The next Underhanded C Contest has begun, with a deadline of March 1st. The object of the contest is to write short, readable, clear and innocent C code that somehow commits an evil act. This year's challenge: write a luggage routing program that mysteriously misroutes a customer's bag if a check-in clerk places just the right kind of text in a comment field. The prize is a gift certificate to ThinkGeek.com."

  1. NEW YEARS WARNING by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I was once kiolled by a drunk driver that was having a lot of booze and he told me that he was not quite impaired by i believed him anyway and knew better but whent in his car with him and then he started driving everywhere like a crazy man ( like ozzy osborn) but was really more impaired than i originally thought in the first place and well he ended up driving real fast and there were some people flashing their lights at him but that made him only want to speed up and i told him to slow down but he didnt like me critizicng his type of driving and therefore sped up a little more and then we encountered this other drunk driver or driver on some sorts of drugs and he started weaving in front of us and we lost him but later came back in contact with him later on in the night when he hit us at an intersection after everyone in the town had sobered up and killed me resulting in the picture above which just goes to show that not every traffic fatality involves alcohol but in reality it can involve a lot of factors such as safety and precautions that must be met like treating trarffic lights like four way stops when there is snow going everywhere as is in the case with the midwest at this point with their led's lights and all.

    Funny, but you've got a point.

    The best humor also makes a good point. Thanks for noticing.
