    You find something you wrote over a decade ago and had absolutely no idea it existed because you forgot it existed. :doh: Beginning KDevelop Programming[^]

      I was cycling through some old stuff yesterday and found a CD (yes, imagine, a CD) of some code I thought would be useful to me when I had written it. It is more than a decade old (nobody writes VB code anymore). New desktops / laptops don't even have a DVD player in them, let alone a CD player. I really dont know what to do with this CD.

        I have an external DVD reader. I use it only once in a long while, but for what it cost me, it's worthwhile insurance.

        If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

          I have pubic hair older than you. You can't claim to be old yet.

                Just today I found some code I wrote in 2011, that filled a small need today. :-D

                That's awesome. I love it when that happens. Circle of life type stuff.

                    Protect your desk from condensing water out of the :beer:

                    M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                      Better yet; looking at code and thinking "whoever did this was being a bit too clever for their own good" and then realizing you'd written that code a month before.

                        Ha. Same thing happened to me more than once, but it usually goes like "who the elephant wrote this crap", only to realize it was me. :-D
