Hi Martin.

You seem to be attacking your project with a sledgehammer.

There is always an elegant solution hiding somewhere,
but you have to slow down enough to look for it.

Have you heard that tale of 2 programmers?
They have an idea and one starts coding=20
The other sits down and thinks and plans and when the first is halfway =
through,=20
the second starts coding and finishes first. His program works, is =
extensible=20
and scalable and first one is reminiscent of spaghetti with a huge =
dollop of lard in it.
