    My first switch card came with the really secure default PIN of 5554 (btw, what's a "PIN number" - is that like a "DVD disc", or "NT technology"?) -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit! Buzzwords!

            I've been getting some failures when posting messages the last 24 hours or so. It hasn't been like that for at least a month, so maybe something burnt out again at the data centre?

                  Keep in mind that that number is only a high-water mark. The number of active users is an order of magnitude smaller.

                              I'm 1363. I can't image what Code Projet must have been like back then. Many people I thought I've been talking to since the beginning didn't have accounts until after me. I set all my PIN numbers to my CP id until I found an even easier number to remember. No I won't tell you the new one. ;P
