    given how often Bacon and CListCtrl come up in conversations here on CP, has anyone coined a rule/law for the probability of Bacon or CListCtrl being mentioned in an online discussion? Anyone care to?

          At least amongst the older CPians here, they’ve all used CListCtrl before, some of them continue to use it, but a good majority are using Winforms, WF, SL versions now. Now bacon on the other hand has remained a constant in their lives, it will remain so until their deaths, irrespective of increasing cholesterol levels and failing health.

                    Well the potent medicinal values of bacon have been well documented in human history. So no surprises there I guess.

                      In bacon's case it's a suggestion not a law.
