And just when you thought it was safe to outside, consider 
this:  I won't use one piece of code that is p-, mex- dll, 
Active-X or any non-m sourced material.  If your piece is 
so great, offer it for sale with a guarantee.

I want code that will live forever in the Matlab world, 
that will survive the inquisition of a trial discovery 
(Oh, the reason my missle warhead flew back at the jetliner 
that launched it was because the trajectory code was a p-
code from the Mathwork's user submitted website.  The 
author was really pround of it and promised that it was bug 
and sneak circuit-free).

Gimme a break.  We used to call this ego-coding:  You are 
just so proud of it and don't want to share.

Your effort will die on the vine.
