Hi, DerekCurrie,

If you were to tell me and El Regers that “better detecting the end of the function statement” is any better than just an educated subjective guess at a constantly moving and evolving objective targeting functions and common vulnerabilities with exposure to explosive exploits, I would wholeheartedly and fundamentally disagree with you.

And a patch is surely only a desperate temporary fix and not at all a viable working solution to an abiding burgeoning problem which is presenting opportunities currently daily to …. well the Zer0Day Vector is a Novel Creative CyberSpace Command and Control Sector which Bugs the Captive Monopolist Capitalist Investment Market Place to Deny, Degrade and/or Destroy All Opposing Competition and Competitive Opposition.
