Gotta say, John, First, thanks for being the first to reply, and second, I thought I was mandatory to start an inflamatory thread here. :) Actually, I'm a big fan of the Pittsburgh Pirates (baseball, for non-Pittsburghers) and have been to a million games, but also like the Pittsburgh Penguins(hockey, for non-Canadiens:)) (I grew up near Pennsylvania). On a more purposeful note: Do any of you guys feel that C# is an amazing new technology, or is it just Java with different marketing?? I honestly don't know, I've heard both, and I've decided to withhold judgement until the MS dust has settled. I'd like to learn the new technology (-ies??), but feel that waiting until one is proven before expending time and energy is the more prudent path. Any suggestions? Colin: Just saw your message and thought I'd say that I've gathered that Australia is more interesting than I thought, though I always liked it, and I'm learning a bit about South Africa. Is Nish that knob that writes inflamitory messages and then deletes them??? If yes - schmuck, If no - I apaologize and am sure he's a nice guy. :-D E

I can't say how often I'll post ... I hope it will be often. Just post whenever Christian does - you'll be fine. I'm soon to be married You're soon to be poor. hockey kicks the crap outta baseball Who cares - it's football season!! ;P ;P ----------------------------- "I leave no turn un-stoned." - John Simmons, Nov 6 2001 -----------------------------

Well Eric, welcome. You seem a lucid fellow, so we all invite you to post often and keep the Lounge interesting. Just for reference: Colin is from New Zealand. Nish, while he seems bent on a) maxing out the most active list and b) tweaking Colin's nose seems to have some substance to him. The goof who deletes his post at the first challenge is Hassan, and has about a dozen aliases easily penetrated by those who frequent the Lounge. David http://www.dundas.com

I'm soon to be married. You're soon to be poor. -I need a raise to be poor. If you've talked to my boss, thanks! Crapola - Reallllllly sorry about that Nish. Good thing you're too far away to kick me. E

Arch Stanton

My fiancee was an exchange student in Sydney, she remembers 'Kings Cross(??)' street in Sydney. She also REALLY liked New Zealand. I've never been farther away than Canada, myself. E

ColinDavies

Heh Eric, you do know to be nice to John Simmons (outlaw programmer) when he is here don't you ! :-) Regardz Colin J Davies

Canada.. Well, travel no further my friend, you've reached the Mecca (oh is that politically correct anymore) of modern civilization. Hope you filled up on beer and poutine. David http://www.dundas.com

Arch Stanton

I have no idea what poutine is, but I'm SURE I've filled up on enough beer to cover 'em both. :-D E

Arch Stanton

I knew John was an Outlaw Programmer, I didn't know, however, to be nice to him. I just assumed it was good practice. If I'm not, what are the consequences???? E

David Cunningham

What the heck is Poutine David http://www.dundas.com

Don't have a Sonork ID (yet). We've been looking for someting like this at work - might make for a good suggestion. Is it open-source? We're sick of ICQ (I-Suck-You?), and Jabber certainly didn't work out. Maybe we'll give ths a shot.... E

Arch Stanton

Celibate??!? Celibate!!!!!!? All plans are off!!!!! :-D E

ColinDavies

How do you know I'm from New Zealand, David, ? Confused you wouldn't believe anything you read in my Bio I hope ! :-) Regardz Colin J Davies

The client is open source Borland C+ I believe, the server on an intranet costs money! ICQ unfortunatly seems to equal spamware now! Check out the site and try it! But its mushrooming pretty fast now! Try and get a low sonork ID number. Regardz Colin J Davies
