 Hi!
 
 In perfect world that "garbage in, garbage out" reasoning would be
 good enough. However, this isn't perfect world, there aren't
 applications that are *perfect*.
 
 Let's hope that this function isn't ever used in mission critical
 environments like hospital devices, aeroplanes, satellites, nuclear
 plants etc
 
 Lehtonen, Matti
