years ago a friend of mine was amused to see adverts suddenly appear one
week in Computer Weekly requesting people with `3 years experience in XYZ', where
XYZ had only been announced, let alone released, by IBM the previous week.

mind you, if you've seen the size of J2XX for any XX recently, you might wonder
if you might need the 20 years just to comprehend the documentation properly.
