    Oddly enough, this very subject was covered in a recent NYTimes story: [http://www.nytimes.com/2002/11/25/technology/25CND-IDENTITY.html](about:there was a perfectly good arrow to the left, you should have used it.)[[^](javascript:alert('way to go!') "New Window")] Shog9 ------

    You are the intrepid one, always willing to leap into the fray! A serious character flaw, I might add, but entertaining. Said by Roger Wright about me.

      Would some of you soapboxers STOP making trivial posts of the most minor matters here. Just refrain yourselves for a moment and look at the last few post's subject lines. My latest run-in with microsoft UK Slides on photo CD, and Diana Ow, my brain bubblegum instability When you have friends like these... (ok this one wasn't too bad) Things to say when stressed at work :-) Drunken rant... If you ever need to cuss in a different language Possibly Ruined Weekend a little consistency, please Santa... :P Just because some weak thought has entered your head, there is no reason to share it with the rest of us. Try to make posts here in the soapbox that are well thought out and antagonize the maximum number of people possible. Regardz Colin J Davies

      U-Huh.....

VB has always lacked even that... - Shog9 04-09-2002 Again, you can screw up a C/C++ program just as easily as a VB program.

        You missed "Trivial Posts" from your list Colin Davies wrote: Try to make posts here in the soapbox that are well thought out and antagonize the maximum number of people possible. I placed a link to my site so i didn't have to waste CP's bandwidth, is that a crime? Ok ok, all who forward the motion of having a "Useless Cr*p" forum say 'Aye'

        We brought out this new and very similar version of our expensive software because the old version was......old....It's a good enough excuse for Microsoft so its fine for us.

Colin, But the criteria for posting here is just "The Code Project discussion boards - The Soapbox - off-topic rants / If you want to get something off your chest then do it here - but enter at your own risk." So if you want to get something trival off your chest why not? On the other hand the trival posts seem to have at least antgonized one person. Is that OK. Have a wunderful week. Mine was great.

                    Hey all, I'd like to apologize yet again for my "Drunken rant" (I honestly don't remember posting it, among other things my roommates said that I did). I totally agree that stuff like this shouldn't be posted in any forum on CP. I'll have my roommates take away my CP priveledges when I'm wasted. Colin, I appreciate your straightforwardness, it seems like everybody is beating around the bush to try to solve problems these days. Brad Jennings Feel free to beat me up now.

                                          Would some of you soapboxers STOP making trivial posts of the most minor matters here. Just refrain yourselves for a moment and look at the last few post's subject lines. My latest run-in with microsoft UK Slides on photo CD, and Diana Ow, my brain bubblegum instability When you have friends like these... (ok this one wasn't too bad) Things to say when stressed at work :-) Drunken rant... If you ever need to cuss in a different language Possibly Ruined Weekend a little consistency, please Santa... :P Just because some weak thought has entered your head, there is no reason to share it with the rest of us. Try to make posts here in the soapbox that are well thought out and antagonize the maximum number of people possible. Regardz Colin J Davies

                                          Oh Colin. There you go with your humorous rhetoric tinged with black sarcasm again. It's a good thing you didn't ruin the tone of the post with excessive amounts of smileys. :rolleyes:
