      Should I set up an email subscription alert for these occurances? Honestly though - how can you not love Bill. There's never a dull moment when he turns up and he certainly knows how to stir up people when he needs to. cheers, Chris Maunder Rub your belly and pat your head simultaneously.

        You aught to make a "CodeProject celebrity" rank with it's own icon on the forums. It wouldn't have any actual benefits, but it'd be good to be able to have some kind of award handed out in recognition of the people who make CP the place it is. Maybe we could have nominations, a voting jury, and an awards ceremony. Just need to think up categories... -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

          No chance Bill is your alta ego though is there?!?!?!:-D Alice thought that running very fast for a long time would get you to somewhere else. " A very slow kind of country!" said the queen. "Now, here , you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place".

            I agree, never a dull moment when Bill's around. :-D And even though people knock the guy, he's not *all* bad. He does have some decent articles. Even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat.

                  I saw the initial post yesterday and ignored it thinking it wouldn't amount to anything. Then this morning (EST) I saw your mention of this - and I just got back from reading the thread ! LOL What a blast ! What an utter moron. Really, if there were a way to get email alerts to this sort of thing in the future it would be great, just for the humor involved ! Wish I'd paid closer attention yesterday !

                        Is there such an RFC? Looking at RFC index on http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/rfcietf.htm it appears that the highest RFC is 3295 ??? Have fun, Paul Westcott.

                            But his ramble yesterday seemed so... Ummm... composed. like he knew he was taking the piss... His old rambles; well I just got more of the feeling that he really had no clue about the way he acted. Have fun, Paul Westcott.

                                That's the advantage of the slashdot system. When people continually post rubbish, they get moderated down, and when they get negative mod points (called karma), their posts start defaulting to a level below the normal visable threshold -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

                                  But it's such entertaining rubbish! It at least has some value. Kind of like compost. :-D Even if you win the rat race, you're still a rat.

                                      Should I set up an email subscription alert for these occurances? Honestly though - how can you not love Bill.

                                        Obviously I don't know the man well enough to hate him properly, but I've known a number of his ilk, and visited his website. His personality is pure promoter, like the jerks in Marketing who promise the customer a technological breakthrough by lunchtime Tuesday without consulting the engineer who has to implement it. I'd be willing to bet that he actually does sell, and if you have a product to sell you probably could do much worse than have him promote it. It would be an interesting experiment. I wonder what he could do with a couple thousand copies of Nish's book:-) It might become a best-seller... I Drowned Schroedinger's Stupid Cat!

                                          Well, it's like they say, there's Lies, Damn Lies, and Marketing... Personally, I think it's a great idea. Hey, Nish, whaddya say? Let's put him on the case! Just don't forget us little people after he's made you Rich and Infamous Famous. :-D Remember, products don't sell. Quality doesn't sell. Service doesn't sell. Price doesn't sell. Salespeople sell...
