Never a truer word
Waaaay back when I was a lad, and computers were still driven by steam and clockwork, I was in the school computer club. With a bunch of other pasty-faced social inadequates, I was working after school one day on our project, which was a moon-landing program.

We were struggling to get it working; it just wasn't moving properly. Then suddenly I realised that we hadn't added in the time correctly - we'd used the minutes, but not the seconds. In a loud voice, and of course just as the attractive female french teacher walked past the open classroom door, I shouted out "We need sec's!"

Could have been the club motto, really.
