Yeah, I´ve seen threads with titles like "Coling Angus Mackay please help me!". I think they see all that you've helped others and want your help also. Don't be bothered by that, just keep answering those questions you know the answer as you normally would. You're in no way obligated to answer (ok, only my questions in the SQL forum :-D). But seriously, many of us really appreciate your help in th forums, so don't be discouraged by a few people. Keep it up! :) -- LuisR

      drink coke and then sleep. When I drink coke and sleep I get the best sleep I can imagine -.- maybe because I have a constant level of coke in my body ^^

      :omg: You've got to be kidding. The level of caffiene and sugar in CokeTM is enough to kick start a T-Rex. Unless of course I've assumed to wrong kind of coke :~...

        That's nothing -- I once stayed up 48 hours straight programming almost the entire time -- a massive Perl script to format data tables into a 180-page LaTeX book - for my PhD research - ack -- ~344 iterations total...then I promptly totaled my little Honda driving back to get some sleep... :mad: X| Sincerely Yours, Brian Hart Department of Physics and Astronomy University of California, Irvine

        Sounds familiar. Back during my undergraduate days, I had one quarter where I did two 40+ hour days in a two week period. I was taking two software classes, an engineering lab class, and I had an independent study course. On top of that, I was taking philosophy 101 as a general education requirement from a pr*ck who hated engineering students. Completely insane.

          :-D I remember those days well. Does the Commons still stay open 24 hours all during finals week, and serve coffee and donuts all night? That was a godsend, as I couldn't go home - no gas available in Orange County. Thank goodness I didn't crash the car once I did get fuel, though... Someone else did that for me a week after.:sigh: "If it's Snowbird season, why can't we shoot them?" - Overheard in a bar in Bullhead City

            Go to they gym, that helps me when I can't sleep. 1. It's too easy to get into a vicous cycle of not being able to sleep 2. Let those in the programming forums make a bit more of an effort. Some of the questions I see in there are ridiculous and make it harder for the worthwhile questions to get answered.

                I take it you're tired.;P Ok ok, just so you know, there are some folks who just plain appreciate your efforts but never post about it. I happen to be one of those folks.

                  I hope you feel better soon, Colin. You're one of the good guys around here. A good night's sleep can work wonders. :)

                      Is that for daylight savings time? I think they do that in late April around here (it usually seems to coincide with the start of baseball season)
