lots of money redoing "the look" -- basically it amounted changing the
dots on the i from square to round and changing the color. No wonder
DEC went under not long after.)
Palmer had an "interesting" approach to solving DEC's problems.
Suppose you have a hangnail. One way to solve it is to chop off your
fingertip. Now you're bleeding, so you chop off the finger. Hmmm,
still bleeding - better chop off the hand. If you follow this
progression, eventually the problem WILL be solved.
