Steve,

>>some of the stuff I have seen was written by someone with an IQ less than a monkey!<<

yes, this is true. It's Fortran code written by several
generations of monkeys over long periods of time. Commonly
called "spaghetti code".

Part of the reason it exists: the original writers thought
they were creating job security:-)
