No, you're slipping! A bear does not indicate the quantity. Maybe a pint, maybe a gallon or maybe a half of weak shandy if you're from Luton. :laugh:

FTFY. But then again, .129% and .138% is somewhat lesser for you, isn't it? ;P

Don't worry. The chance that he actually wrote something useful under the influence of gin is slim to none... :doh:

Maybe he was a bit past his Ballmer Peak when he wrote the license. And revised it. And revised it. And revised it..

We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.
