>>Here's the original post's content:
>>
>>First time listener and first time caller... Found this site in a Google search and it seemed to have a lot of traffic, so here I am. Is it a good one for NET?
>>
>>We have an existing Foxpro application - VFP9 - and want to convert it over to NET. I've have been the sole developer for a number of years - I own the code - and now want to start learning and moving it to C# (I think). I'm in a position to take the time to learn NET and improve the application, so I'm looking for resources to help me get started. I know nothing about it, other than what I've read online.
>>
>>Lynda

>>
>>What were the hints?
>>1) The lady is the sole developer - for a number of years! and even owning it! - of a VFP9 application and she only now finds out about the existence of the UT? Not years ago?
>>2) Indeed, look at the picture. We can acknowledge that there are indeed beautiful ladies in our community. But whom of them publishes a picture exposing herself the way this Lynda did? (I wish they did, but they don't. I guess because they are aware that some (allmost all, not me off course) men here have dirty minds.)

>As one of those who responded to the original post, I can tell you the picture did not have a thing to do with it. With the small, lo-res pictures here all I could tell was she was a woman with dark hair. All the replies were somewhat typical welcome messages, with nothing inappropriate or sexist in any way. No wonder there was puzzlement when Dmitry suddenly jumped in and said, in essence, you've been had. Seems to me he must have been tipped off.

I'm still confused about Peter's comment about her publishing a picture exposing herself the way she did. ??? I recall a woman wearing an open suit jacket or blouse over what might have been a dress. I see much the same here every day at the office. I suppose where Peter is, the women must all wear parkas in the office.

>There are many, many FoxPro developers who have not heard of the UT or any other online community. IIRC Ken Levy's estimate is that only 5% of developers are in an online group.
