    2/7... Guess I'd better quit my job :( Oh wait, these questions didn't actually have anything to do with programming. I live to code another day :)

    It's an OO world.

    public void DoWork(){ throw new NotImplementedException(); }

      On the BBC[^] I got 5 out of 7. (I am not asking a programming question, merely pointing at something that is (kinda)).

        Same. I thought Johnny was also a programmer, but not a hacker. I thought SLJ tried to access the system, but wasn't a programmer.

            No John. You do not get extra points for shooting the monitor because you just wasted 5 minutes. It does not work that way.

                                  I got a 7, but only because I took a blind guess at the movie question, on the basis that John Travolta was the only suspect without a picture.

                                      No, I said, Church. I have no idea who Charlotte is. Was referring to the inventor of lambda calculus, Alonzo Church[^].

                                      That was why I decided against the joke. Google images for Charlotte Church has some great related searches. Reads like the fetish list on a low rent pron site.

                                        On the BBC[^] I got 5 out of 7. (I am not asking a programming question, merely pointing at something that is (kinda)).
