    to your all posts, and somehow feel how the time has passed, and stupid? I was reading a long thread with John Simmons, at that time I had just two years of business work. Now I have just a little bit more, and I absolutely do not agree with myself at that time... Here is the thread in question, it was in 2006... http://www.codeproject.com/Lounge.aspx?msg=1740465#xx1740465xx[^]

      Wow. When did the CP forum backend get updated so that threads from that long ago actually can be navigated without timing out after a minute or two...?

      Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

        Nope, I'm still as stupid and clueless as I was a long time ago. The only difference is that I know now that I'm stupid and clueless !! ! :rolleyes:

        I'd rather be phishing!

          Experience teaches us how ignorant we are.

          Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet. The interesting thing about software is it can not reproduce, until it can.

            Ignorance is fractal ... the more knowledge you put into the gaps, the more gaps you see that there are! Hopefully, though, you're now stupid and clueless about different things than you were years ago, or at least your awareness of your ignorance is different and illuminated by the knowledge you've gained.

              I re-visited the posts around 9/11 after reading a post from JSOP saying how forthright he was on here at the time and it led to the Soapbox being created. Either he wasn't very forthright, or I didn't find the posts he was referring too, but nevertheless the posts were quite interesting. If I remember rightly Christian Graus broke the news just before he was going to bed, and it's interesting to read peoples reactions as it was happening and in the days afterwards.

                    I found out about the events of that morning via CP. It was a truly awful day, and one I try not to remember in too much detail.
