    Last millennium. That's 1000 years ago! :)

        Yeah, that Viking age software really was a mess. From Vikings for Vikings.

          According to some of the posts in this thready, you are over a 1,000 years old. I am sure you attribute this longevity to dining on fine wines and cheese, possibly a good curry from time to time?

            Clearly you have been around the block my friend. I haven't touched Corel anything since the 90s... and yet I still remember the pain... oh the pain... curse you Corel Draw! On a side note, I just checked. That thing is still selling... :omg:

                    Elephant it, why not? So long as their use doesn't cause problems, it's just a different experience to alcohol. Besides, we're one of very few generations to live through two palindrome years. Perhaps the third, I suppose. 99 & 101, 999 and 1001, 1991 and 2002. One may as well enjoy oneself after a healthy dose of hard work and helping others. Yeah, I used to get out more. :-\

                              Is that what they're calling Bloatus Goatse (aka lotus notes) these days? Because every lounger knows that particular pile of filth owns the buggiest code in the world title.

                              Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?

                                        Sounds like someone needs to pull all the server HDDs, stand them up on the safety rail at the top of a stairwell (or the edge of building if you have roof access) and play Dominos :-\ with them to force the issue. :rolleyes:

                                        Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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

                                          Sounds like too much work. I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the fire, once it starts.
