      Nish, That joke captures it perfectly. The way things are becoming more and more dumbed down for the "average" developer, soon the only people writing native code will be the folks at microsoft! Rich

      I think you'll find at least a handful of developers at a handful of other companies (Sun, Apple, IBM, Oracle etc.) who still write native code :) regards, Paul Watson Ireland Feed Henry! K(arl) wrote: oh, and BTW, CHRISTIAN ISN'T A PARADOX, HE IS A TASMANIAN!

                            It's about as sexist as my pencil sharpener. How about Joe writing the code and John fawning over him? Some people will read offence into anything.

                                        I gotta ask, are those supposed to be jokes? They didn't make me laugh. In fact, I winced. They reminded me of old black-n-white movies where you can definitely tell its an old movie by their speech patterns.

                                          Men don't "fawn". They "lust", and it has nothing to do with a woman's brains. ------- sig starts "I've heard some drivers saying, 'We're going too fast here...'. If you're not here to race, go the hell home - don't come here and grumble about going too fast. Why don't you tie a kerosene rag around your ankles so the ants won't climb up and eat your candy ass..." - Dale Earnhardt "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001
