Quality of the articles
-
I know it's not polite to comment on people's bios, bus this particular author's bio says :- I am currently the Director of Engineering at Citynet. We're a CLEC/IXC/ISP. My only time spent developing any more is management of my tasks here and some consulting here and there. With 19 years in the IT field, I'm MCSD, MCSE, MCT, A+, Net+, iNet+, Security+, CCIP, CCSP, CCVP, CCNP, CCDP and pretty much every other certification known to man. And I find it hard to believe that someone with that sort of profile can write this sort of code or article. :~

So many letters. So little talent. I wonder if the village realises that it's missing an idiot.
the last thing I want to see is some pasty-faced geek with skin so pale that it's almost translucent trying to bump parts with a partner - John Simmons / outlaw programmer
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before. -
In the last months I was less "rigorous" about the quality of the articles, because I'm writing my articles... but this[^] is a live "Daily WTF[^]" :wtf::omg: Snippet:
Dim DeleteColZero As Boolean = True Dim DeleteColOne As Boolean = True Dim DeleteColTwo As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColThree As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColFour As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColFive As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColSix As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColSeven As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColEight As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColNine As Boolean = False Dim DeleteColTen As Boolean = False

I have posted a solution for that under comments. I also encountered the same problem. I need someone who can extend that for 100 columns.

Really? It's exactly the sort of profile i'd expect. But then, i have a rather dim view of certifications...

I was about to correct a little gramatical mistake you had in there, but then I realised one of the possible corrections would sound totally absurd. The article will get put in the purgatory "get" generally being used as the opposite of "put" it makes it sound very odd. e.g. "I get the apples off the shelf." Now reverse the action. "I put the apples on the shelf." Back to the original statement. You can also say: The article will be put in the purgatory
