    META predicts[^] that MS will start moving key server software over to Linux by 2004. This is based on their predicition of Linux grabbing 50% of the server market by then. Yah, and I confidently predict John Simmons will start using words like "ouch" and "you horrid person", that VB programmers will be welcomed with open arms by CG and I will become a Playboy centerfold... X| Sure, yes, it is their job to predict... but really! META may stand for: Mostly Erratic Transendental Analysis predictions.

I reckon me as a Playboy centrefold will definitley happen before either of the CG or John ones. But will John go soft before CG accepts VB developers, or vice versa? I cannot decide.

I could approach that with several arguments. A simple one would be that dementia strikes both CG and John :cool:, well before your modeling career.:rose: "I will find a new sig someday."
