    Very well said, Mr. Hughes. :thumbsup: Cheers, Vıkram. I've never ever worked anywhere where there has not been someone who given the choice I would not work with again. It's a job, you do your work, put up with the people you don't like, accept there are probably people there that don't like you a lot, and look forward to the weekends.   - Josh Gray.

    Otto von Drunkencoder wrote: How many shots does a litre bottle contain? I remember finishing a bottle and half of tequila with a friend (in about 3 hours) and then holding a "stand on one foot" contest. The one who overbalances, and puts the other foot down first, loses. I am reasonably sure that 2 normal adults cannot finish 1.5 litres of tequila in 3 hours without blacking out. Because that's 750 ml of 40% alcohol. I say "normal" adults though. If either of you are borderline alcoholics this may be possible because your liver may not be functioning normally. Though some tequila bottles are 500-600 ml or so and often have less than 40% alcohol in them. If that's so it may be true that you guys downed about 400-430 ml each (14 shots in the US). The maximum tequila I've ever had (I don't like the stuff) is when a friend and I finished a 750 ml bottle (around 2 1/2 hours) and then we went for a crappy tamil movie (Sarath Kumar and Nayan Tara) and I don't really remember the story much. We both felt reasonably drunk but it wasn't a smooth happy kick like you get from say vodka or scotch.

    You're not seriously judging the value of a person's life by the cost of the bullet you'd use to kill them are you? Giving you the benefit of the doubt on that one, and whilst I agree that there should be no sympathy for lawbreakers, would you agree that you have a fairly "extreme" view, or is it one that you belive many to hold? You didn't clarify on my other point - what if they were Americans? C# has already designed away most of the tedium of C++.

    Yes. But you would think that of those that rise to the highest levels of government in a nation would at least be adults, if not more adult than most. Course you'd be wrong, but it makes no sense. Visit BoneSoft.com for code generation tools (XML & XSD -> C#, VB, etc...) and some free developer tools as well.

Unfortunately this will have massive repercussions for others looking to use IVF as insurance companies providing indemnity cover to doctors clamp down on what they will and wont cover. I suspect their attitude would have been different had the doctor been a female.

    Yep. Matter of fact, I need to buy some yen in a couple of weeks. Sickens me to think that a year or two ago I could get 120 - 140 yen to the dollar, and last I looked it was below 90. Then I also have to wonder what currency is safe. :~ Visit BoneSoft.com for code generation tools (XML & XSD -> C#, VB, etc...) and some free developer tools as well.
