Right, but the code wasn't given as a "one size fit's all" solution to
anyones I2C requirements.  I don't know about you, but if I ever use a code
snippet or library written by someone else, I make sure I thoroughly
understand how it works and any requirements it has or assumptions it makes
rather than just relying on faith and plugging it in.
