      That old thing? That's been up for hours. Just one of those things we thought "hey - I wonder if this is useful to anyone?". One thing led to another and up it went. The coffee page is a result of constant in-fighting between the refined, sophisticated and educated Australian-based coffee lovers on staff and the unwashed North American staff. There is money on the outcome.

      cheers, Chris Maunder

        It's nice to know that I hadn't been as unobservant as I thought. Excellent choice there - but seriously; agriculture? :laugh:

          Just imagine me holding up a finger about to make a witty and relevant comment on this one, then frowning, turning around and walking away quietly.

              Cool fine, I signed up for one. Gonna see if it is worth it, and maybe sign up for more. (I know it is free, but sometimes even free isn't worth it)

                  Please let us know. I already get a few of these but I know after a while you can get a bit of magazine fatigue.

                    Be careful with some of the magazines, especially eWeek. They started sending me eWeek about 5 years ago and I have been trying to unsubscribe for at least 4 years. In the last two years, they started calling my office trying to sell other things/services, I usually tell them that "I don't want your magazine and anything else you may have, please stop contacting me", they politely apologize and hang up. Of course I will get a new call in a few days to a few weeks. I noticed the callers from eWeek acquired Indian accent. The funny thing is, I am beginning to wonder what happened to eWeek if they do not call for a month or two.

                                      Be careful with some of the magazines, especially eWeek. They started sending me eWeek about 5 years ago and I have been trying to unsubscribe for at least 4 years. In the last two years, they started calling my office trying to sell other things/services, I usually tell them that "I don't want your magazine and anything else you may have, please stop contacting me", they politely apologize and hang up. Of course I will get a new call in a few days to a few weeks. I noticed the callers from eWeek acquired Indian accent. The funny thing is, I am beginning to wonder what happened to eWeek if they do not call for a month or two.

                                      Hi, I'm not from eWeek and I'm wondering why three, yes, count them, three people would make "Hi, I'm from eweek" posts without even noticing that someone else made essentially the same post". Maybe they are from eWeek! [edit]Oh wait. Two of them are from the same person! Maybe the other one is just another login.[/edit] Marc

                                        Just imagine me holding up a finger about to make a witty and relevant comment on this one, then frowning, turning around and walking away quietly.

                                        Hi Chris, You might consider putting up a new page with some videos of you actually acting your favorite answers. That wouldn't stress our imagination any longer, and offer a nice change to the frequent "Fixed" messages you seem fond off as of late. :)

                                        This month's tips: - before you ask a question here, search CodeProject, then Google; - the quality and detail of your question reflects on the effectiveness of the help you are likely to get; - use PRE tags to preserve formatting when showing multi-line code snippets.
