    "What are some uses of Dihydrogen Monoxide?"

    Heh... the very same as Hydrogen Hydroxide. "Oh bartender! Can you fix me a Perrier and water, please?" 😛

    Best to water it down, yes. School chemistry lessons taught me that anything with an OH on the end was an alcohol (like C2H5OH - ethanol) so H1OH must be quite potent!

    ...and Matt's did for me!

    I can see it now:

    EXEC sp_AbraKebabra @ChilliSauce OUTPUT;

    And yes, there is a local take-away here called Abra-Kebab-ra 🙂

  • if there is anything that I have learnt from these forums, is that the stupidity of questions is not in scale to the number of points for that op. the amount of questions that I have seen recently where the op has asked for not just help, but to do the entire question for them and put on a nice pink ribbon and hand it back to them and they have more points than I do!!!!

    Woo-hoo! Back in 6th place. 🙂

    Now all I need to do is to keep this up for three years... And for at least four people to die... :Whistling:

    No complaints. I'm in 10th and I'm never going to be any higher, ever. Unless... How many of you guys 1-9 will be at the Summit?

  • I'm at #9 and hope to stay in the top 10. It takes quite a bit of work.

    I'll be at the Summit, I hope all that are going will be at the SSC party, that'll make it easy to meet.

    Unfortunately, I won't be there. No money (personally or at work).

  • Grant,

    You're always welcome to come speak (and ski) at the user group meetings. We have 3 in the same week, consecutive nights. Lynn's in the Springs.

  • It's hard to stay in the top 5-10 here since you get points for questions. It seems that we'll have a few people every month answering 500 questions and jumping up in the rankings for awhile.

  • I don't worry about the rankings, Steve. I just worry about getting banned from SSC. 😉
