I spent 2 years of my life solving every problem in a 1200 page 
calculus text book. A pretty similar kind of dedication to when I was 
concentrating on KMail.

I can remember walking over the grass instead of on the concreted 
paths at university because I always optimized my routes. And you 
know how there were some geeks who walk fast to avoid wasting time? I 
was one of those too.

I attended the best university in my country and was completely 
dedicated to perfection, achieving a perfect 4.0 GPA for the totality 
of my entire 4 year double honors degree. (Double honors is normally 
5 years but I stopped after getting a Comp Sci honors degree and 
never bothered to finish my pure mathematics honors degree).

But know I tend to be a lot more relaxed and outgoing, smoking a fair 
amount of ***** and partying pretty hard because I won't be young 
forever. Luckily I don't have to fret about the small stuff anymore.

I've also been totally humbled by the fact that even though I've spent 
almost my entire life programming I'm only an average programmer at 
Trolltech.

Don.
