I've actually gone to the trouble to write a limited version of this SOAP
service. Rather than debugging the script completely, it detect only one type
of error: infinite loops. You send you script in, and the service will
determine if it halts.

And it's environmentally friendly, because it's powered by a special thermal
engine, that has a little door that only lets the fast molecules through....
