Well that's odd. I wake up and find the computer stuck at the BIOS password prompt. I *know* I shut down last night. Apparently there was no power failure, either. Wake-on-LAN was diabled, I think.

When coding anything with (context=database) records, be sure to have add, edit, and delete functions for everything. If you don't need them, you can remove them later, but have the functions in your design.
Saves a lot of time, when you decide that all you need is updates, and you end up needing add and delete.
Better yet, listen to the professor and spend a week in design.

when doing this:
tptr=head;
while(tptr!=NULL) {
/*do stuff */
}
don't forget the freakin' tptr=tptr->next;

Practice what you preach:
z2=zones;
while(z2->next!=NULL) {
if(isneigh(n2,z)==1) ourneigh=1;
}

i can't believe i did it again!
n=neigh;
while(n!=NULL) {
/* stuff */
}
there is no n=n->next;
*bash*bash*bash* <-- sound of me banging head on desk

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! *thump* sound of me jumping off WPH (tallest building on campus, i think)
:-( time to sleep, i'll be better in the morning. Note: Must have sugar water while coding late in the night.

Well, that was easy. I coded up the leave() function, and surprise, surprise, it worked the first time around. Yay me. Now I'm doing the query timeout-ness.
Just realised that we can't simply quit when the manager quits -- we have to wait until all our queries are done, then if term is 1 set it to 2, end while loop when term==2, and call leave just before setting term to 2.
In other news, weapons inspectors have landed in Iraq... nonono, wrong "other".
In other news, I intend to work on zig in December, maybe get some xp out of it.

No need to call leave(), it will have already been called at that point -- oop, better not call adjtimeout if term==1, and better check for q1->found==0 after the while loop.
