      Not even close! We might have more articles here than my town has people. "Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything,

        In actual fact, the whole STATE where I live has less people. But of course, the figure is meaningless. Most of those people downloaded one piece of code and never came back. Christian I have drunk the cool-aid and found it wan and bitter. - Chris Maunder

            exactly 10% the size of codeproject.. Give or take a bouncing new baby or an old guy 6 ft under. My code isn't buggy. Those are all fleatures.

                    600k eh? Maybe we should consider declaring independence and start our own country. We'll install Chris Maunder as the first president of that country. Every 4 years after that, we'll elect a new president. Voting will be conducted at The Lounge, the White House equivalent. As we lack military might, and wouldn't be able to tell the difference between an atomic bomb and a coco nut, we'll be safe from countries seeking to take any WMDs away from us. Instead of having weapons of mass destruction in our arsenal, we'll have CMCs. CMC = Code of Mass Confusion. Considering CP gets a ton of those everyday, we should have quite the arsenal by now! As the population is quite small and the education level is quite high, I vote for a capitalistic hi-tech structure. We'll cash in so much money by hoarding all the best programmers in this country, there'd be so much money that even if we kept it all for ourselves or split it "brotherly", each and everyone of us would still have more money than we could ever spend. Shit. I really need to get some sleep. :zzz: -- You say it's raining, but you're pissin' down my back!

                      I gre up in the country, but the nearest town had 1300 people. The "city" I live in now has just over 11,000. That's a resounding 1.

                          I should probably have voted a 3 because I currently live in a town with less than 10k people in it (probably closer to 5k). But I should be moving to Toronto within the month, assuming the visa stuff goes ok :D James "then when you go to bed...wait, you dont do that do you....ok....when you plug into the 'hive mind' to charge yourself, ill hack into your head" Nnamdi Onyeyiri over MSN

Yeah, they make up some neat names these days for junior gopher. :-) James T. Johnson wrote: My primary focus now is getting acquainted with the latest product so I can start writing code. What about my Dundas Chart questions ? James T. Johnson wrote: He's not so bad in real life....really! Canadians are tricky James, if they were decent people the US would treat them a lot better. My big worry for you, is that oneday the US will invade, and they will mistake you for one of them, when they send them of to the reservations. You do realise that it was the Canadians who burned down the White house? James T. Johnson wrote: I'll be better buying one after I move. In Canada you'll need to make sure that any bed can fit through your igloo's doorways I guess. Regardz Colin J Davies
