    For those of you who's Googled by the keyword "architect sexy"[^] - it seems to reconfirm that architects really are sexy. After all, Google represents the collective knowledge of human being. Then, why are we not? (I guess I understand this - they make things that are tangible) So if you make tangible things it makes you sexy?

    Under no circumstances can I be even remotely considered to be sexy.  My code, on the other hand, exudes an allure that causes most women to swoon. ;P /ravi

        The last time I showed my code to a woman, I also thought she swooned. Actually she had just fallen asleep.

          In my case it was the 14 goto statements in a short method that caused her to swoon.  Apparently she misunderstood when someone had described me as being the "go to guy" in the group. /ravi

              Gawd I wish I knew. When Dij was a kitten, he was really tiny - he comfortably fit in a single hand. But the smells he could "produce" - seemingly at will - filled the room with a noxious miasma that glued itself to your throat... X|

                        Tangible? Are we talking about the same kind of architect? All the architects I've known just come up with bright ideas that programmers/carpenters/builders have to rework several times, just to reach even the remotely possibility of bringing them into tangibility.

                                        For those of you who's Googled by the keyword "architect sexy"[^] - it seems to reconfirm that architects really are sexy. After all, Google represents the collective knowledge of human being. Then, why are we not? (I guess I understand this - they make things that are tangible) So if you make tangible things it makes you sexy?

                                        It says "Architects are the sexiest profession". There is a typo. They meant "Architects are the sexist profession".
