Anonymous Coward whined: >If you cant, then your a looser programmer living in the 70's, go back to school Yes, I recall the old days when I was a looser programmer... but I've tightened up quite a bit since then.
schweda, I think you're being a bit too specific with the term television. What if, for example, I'm watching Schindler's List (195 minutes long) on some pay movie channel (HBO, etc) which does not have commercial breaks? Sometimes I just gotta pee, ya know? I realize this apparently doesn't apply in your case, but friends always seem to call at exactly the wrong moment and I'd hate to miss the scene where the boy hides in the toilet.
