Well, it's been over a year since those sorts of deadline-related 
things were happening. But yes, if i close my eyes i can just about 
smell the overflowing ashtrays, the microwaved burritos, boiling 
black espresso..etc.

But I was too focused to actually 'feel' anything..until about 1 
minute after the file was ftp'd to the printer's. (In Jupiter, FL, I 
think).

I had a much nicer chair (speaking of the posterior)...ah yes, 
wheels, armrests, the whole shebang... house, wrapped in DEFCON 
4-style hurricane shutters... always kinda nightime...Internet 
grocery orders... Wall St. Journal propped up against the door... and 
5.1 surround sound PC gamer bedlam seeping in through the Koss 
phones..from the roomie in the other room... air conditioner blasting 
24/7.. right at me.  it was Quark hermit heaven, it was...
