Coding Horror

Was on site this morning working on my client's product code. Some very old, very critical code has comments sprinkled all over it like:

* <<<< come back and change this

* <<<<<< come back and fix up the above routine

There is no further explanation of what to "come back and change/fix".

A quick perusal of the code library indicates that they have been there for
years....
