Clever Americans
-
A cocky Mac user has just told me that a Windows power user is an oxymoron, like a clever American. I would like to give a few hundred examples (besides present company on CP) of clever Americans, but I have too much sifting to do to find those that really stand out. I'm looking for really clever Americans, quantum physics etc. Please contribute.

Getting good grades says nothing about being clever. I know plenty of my fellow students who have 4.0 GPAs and can't really think for themselves. And I know kids who've got 2.0s and are some of the most clever people I know.

I believe this is a good time for you to look up the following things:
- Stereotype
- Sarcasm
- Humor
Brad Australian - Bradml on "MVP Status" If this was posted in a programming board please rate my answer
Typical bloody Australian, always missing the humour. No, this is sort of a personal joke I asked for help with. This guy is always ripping Windows users off, so, meh, if I have to explain it would take too long and take some fun away.

On a related note, so was the warship which captured the Enigma codes from a German U-boat. :-)

The USA has had more winners of Nobel prizes than any other country . They lead the world in many forms of technology . But the clever dumb balance must be maintained (its a fundemental law of nature). And to balance the clever ness you voted in Bush (twice) , have the worlds most stupid gun laws, have a highly peverted view of history , and a very dubious relationship with your flag .
Bad code does not kill apps , assumptions do.

Good. And my 5-day weekend will start from this wednesday.:)
Regards, Vijay. God may not give us what we 'want', but he surely gives us what we 'need'.

Wally He's maintianed a white collar job for decades without ever doing the least bit of work. That pts him well above dilbert and alice.
-- CleaKO The sad part about this instance is that none of the users ever said anything [about the problem]. Pete O`Hanlon Doesn't that just tell you everything you need to know about users?
