According to the current rule, you can't, because then some of the lines of code would be <gasp!> identical!
But you brought up a good point. According to some people in this thread, no line of code could be the same from year to year. Now, if that is what the rule is actually saying, that means the simplest things, such as pwm01 = 127; would be illegal. Also, as it has been stated before, this rule would make using Kevin Watson's default code illegal, since there are few changes from year to year.
