   helping to keep those that FOLLOW out of mischief, busy HUNTING for the
   <bleepin'> thing.  Further, by moving it we can contribute to PROTOTYPE
   PROLIFERATION for every function main calls.  Don't you KNOW that those
   declarations OFTEN LINGER, usually long AFTER the REAL definitions have
   DISAPPEARED, since programs do evolve?  Yep that's a GREAT idea you got
   there, NICE GOING!  But, here's an opposing view: ANYONE who'd put main
   ANYWHERE such that its LOCATION cannot be REACHED with JUST 1 KEYSTROKE
   better turn in their Coding_Badge and Pocket_Protector then -- BE GONE!
   The main function has only ONE proper HOME: always the LAST function in
   that C Listing.  End-of-Story, No-More-Discussion, so BE QUIET already!
