BUGS!!!!

Greetings.

I hate bugs, they are time consuming, take years off your life, and most of the time, the problem is started by some small -stupid- mistake (like that ol' ampersand).

A word of advice to aspiring c++ programmers: always set your pointers back to zero after you're done with them. It isn't that hard, it only requires one line of code, and it will save your team mates hours of trouble...

Two hours to be exact. That's right, it took two hours, just to find a wild pointer (that's what we call them). If it had been set back to zero, it would have taken five minutes to find and fix, but no, it took TWO HOURS!

Now I'm upset.
