57%. But I know with some work, I can get that percentage up. :-D Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Should I be proud or not??? X| X| You're pretty much a nerd, sure enough. So if that's what you wanted to hear, well done, ish. I mean you're a "kind-of" geek, but definitely not gifted. Either you're a hard worker who's as thick as two short sales executives, or you just can't be bothered with detail. Whichever, you're a loser. That's why I ramble so much. If you're short and quotable, there's a much greater danger of ending up in a sig. [Christopher Duncan on how to prevent yourself from ending up in a sig]

:-D That rocks. Not to sure this could be called a 'suitable' Christmas present. Thinking of such things, I've been dropping hints for a CP mug and mouse mat, I wonder if they will pay off...

"In meetings, the person who is least competent usually does the most talking. Talking is a direct substitute for competence, at least in the minds of other people. Five minutes after you leave a meeting, you won't remember what anyone said but you will remember who did most of the talking. Withing a day your mind will translate that into a notion that the talker was unusually knowledgeable" - Scott Adams, Dilbert and the way of the weasel

Hmmm... it strikes me that we should be doing better on this - like all above 90%? Does CP have the wrong following (are we all strippers posing as dev's), or is the survey odd? :~

See title. Guess what I answered for number 2 ("BTinternet?")... i answered "Argh....." ;) [edit: apparently each time you get different questions. :-O] Certificate[^]. I didn't get these, but surely the fact I even bothered to find them must add something to my initial score?... 100%[^] 0%[^]
