    Upon receiving the daily newsletter, the following jumped off the page: Space is limited: Register Now for The Code Project Tech Summit on Visual Studio 2010![^] I didn't get further than the "Space is limited" bit before I almost yelled at the monitor, "Oh yeah? How about you go about PROVING that!!!" ...I blushed with embarrasment upon reading the rest of the sentence. I am a geek. And proud of it. //L [edit] Fixed link, thanks goes to CM for spotting it.

    Lemme fix that link for you http://www.codeproject.com/feature/techsummit/[^] (and yes, we've been working like bandits to try and make it so that, for all intents and purposes, space will be unlimited, but we are fairly sure not all 7 million of you lot will fit through the doors!)
