The sun has set in the deep desert and lone figure sits quietly meditating next to a small camp fire. While sitting there, he simply cannot believe how ridiculous some requests for help can be.
As you come nearer to the figure you can hear the words of his mantra, "Must stay in the desert, Must stay in the desert"...

Is it too ealy to start talking about requiring minimum qualifications before you can even connect to SQL Server, or any other DB system?

Calm you must be, Lynn. Dwell on them you should not.
For though their numbers are legion they are not strong in the Force.
Hey Bruce and Paul... how is life in New Zealand? Where do you each live again?
Bruce, you're on the North Island (Auckland?) right?

Calm I am, soothing is the desert at night. Strong is the force for I have not succumbed to the calling of the ID10T's...

[font="Verdana"]I'm in Auckland, which is in the north of the North Island. Paul's in Wellington, which is in the south of the North Island. It's winter here now, so it suddenly got cold a couple of weeks ago. But it hasn't been anywhere near as rainy as it usually is this time of year.
I had a migraine this week for a couple of days, which is why I haven't been around much. Other than that, all is good. Getting near the end of my six month project, and it's just about ready to go into the development review! Then we start the testing phase. :w00t:

We had some amazing rain this morning - monsson-like! Sunny and nice now though with a cool breeze. Tghe last couple of days were very spring-like didn't you think Bruce? It was still 15 degrees at midnight last night. Made a nice change from the 6 or 7 degrees of last week.
The day has just improved markedly, as one of my colleagues from Platform has fetched me a Friday afternnon cold Speights Summit from the fridge. :w00t:
