      Good idea! There are "clubs" that serve alcohol but that most of the straight male (or lesbian) non-drinking members would enjoy. ;)

        Total # members - members that do drink = CP members that don't drink Should be easy enough to figure out.

                What about the members of CP that don't drink. Pubs really only work for drinkers.

                Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

                I don't drink but love a good night down the pub

                  I propose we have a day each year where all Code Project members actually get off their computers and meet with eachother in some public location. Here are the proposed details:

                  • When: the first Saturday night of August.
                  • Where: local pubs.

                  I know a lot of members don't like to post their location online. Somebody should build a mobile device app that will anonymously post a person's location. It will require Code Project login details so other's don't try to use it. And it should be on multiple platforms (maybe even one on Code Project for members who don't have smartphones). We can then use that map to find the best places to meet other Code Project members. Maybe we could even have a pin/wristband or something that identifies us, so we can spot eachother. This meetup day should be announced in all Code Project emails sent prior to the day. And Bob should dress up for it too. Now we just need Chris to ratify this proposal. :)

                    Hell no, you get to bring a big banner saying "Sponsored by CodeProject and Molson brewery" and pay for it all. Get your marketing minions on it, breweries are surprisingly easy to get free stuff out of.

                        We should all meet in Hawaii. I'm sure Chris will be happy to foot the bill.

                            How awesome would that be? A real life flame thrower war. We could wear CP t-shirts over those extreme fire proof suits so no one gets seriously hurt and the object would be to burn the t-shirt off. :)
