Try a brick. *duck*

Strangely enough, I had assembly / call processing people to work with 
on my last project team (in Java), and I actually managed to bend their 
style to my will over the course of those months. I seem to recall a 
certain thread about the value of complete novices in a field sometimes 
yielding surprising results.

(Iwantoneofthose.com stocks styrofoam bricks. I severely need one for 
the office.)
