This is my first skip. It's a project I've spent a couple of years playing with. Now I finally think it is worthy, so here it is.
Thanks to Bear-run,
Marr965,
Dr_Gates, SeptemberJackal does not match any existing user name,
Stallmantic and
Dr Reach for their critiques, as well all my friends who have given this reviews and writing suggestions.
I'd also like to thank Dr Reach and
Communism will win for allowing me to make reference to to their articles.
Also, since people really wanted it, I've added an interview log to the final version. Hope it provides some satisfying context.
