    I suspect the illegal narcotics helped as well.

    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. :-\

          beg to differ, almost every question in the lounge is answered. If the question is interpreted differently than expected: whose fault is that? It's just like coding, if programs don't do what you expected is that the computer being obtuse?

              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.

                        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:

                                  Should try Solidworks for a day! That has got to be one of the buggiest pieces of crap software ever written. I’m sure the people that wrote it couldn’t even program a for-next loop properly.

                                      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. :-\

                                      You know, even in the first century AD, there where people that lived longer than 20 years. So a single person living through 55 - 66 -77 - 88 -99 - 101- 111 would not be so hard to imagine. I don't think they numbered their years like that, though, so they might not have known how special they were.
