Benefits of JUG-USA Affiliation: The opportunities afforded by affiliating together all the JUGs residing in the United States as part of an umbrella JUG-USA organization seem self-evident to me.

Is programming...analysis done backward?: Ever stop to think how we do software? When analyzing the real world, people start with existing phenomena, then derive one or more models that describe it - each is an abstraction of one or more physical phenomenon. Occasionally someone starts with an intuition about how something ought to work, and it comes up correct. In software development, we start with the abstractions and the real world emerges. Is that a thing human beings have a lot of practice at?
