Spotted on the web:

/// The point of this is to work around his poor design so that paging will

/// which he hoped would be able to do everything. I hope he dies.

// I dedicate all this code, all my work, to my wife, Darlene, who will
// have to support me and our three children and the dog once it gets
// released into the public.


3.// Magic. Do not touch.


4. return 1; # returns 1


5. /* This is O(scary), but seems quick enough in practice. */


6./*
* You may think you know what the following code does.
* But you dont. Trust me.
* Fiddle with it, and youll spend many a sleepless
* night cursing the moment you thought youd be clever
* enough to "optimize" the code below.
* Now close this file and go play with something else.
*/
7.//When I wrote this, only God and I understood what I was doing
//Now, God only knows
