I never would have believed this even in the early 1990's. However, in 1990, 
I said to Brian Staples who was Microsoft's rep on the COMPSERVE support 
forum back in those pre-Windows and pre-Internet days that Windows would 
never catch-on. By mid-1992 I had abandoned MS-DOS and was already playing 
catch-up writing Windows 3.1 applications.

I was also already peeking into the windows and the boxcars then and just 
didn't realize it.

It is that late-night feeling of emotion and "programmer's high" that 
obscures the truth until one turns around and looks for someone else and 
realizes with a start that one is alone in the room.

A little scary as we know.
