I may be looking at this all cockeyed, but I'd rather let the program crash than
have all that extra processing overhead going into error-checking. I mean, when
it
comes right down to it, a programmer's job is to hang on for dear life while the
code runs. A programmer's machine's job is to crash. Sure, it would be easier if
I
didn't have to deal with crashes, but it would also be easier to overlook bad
code
or sluff it off and not bother fixing things.

Just MHO.
