@mjd Seriously -- this isn't just me blowing smoke up your arse...

HOP was seminal for me at work, and for others, who were lumbered with TMTOWTDI, yet wanted something structured. HOP went beyond that, it was a real eye-opener.

The techniques you showed were ultimately implemented in production code.

So *thank you* for all your amazing work over the last thirty years. It deserves more recognition, and I hope whomever employs you realises what they have!

It's sad for me to think you're in this position, so I am more than happy to do what I can to help.
