This is a great forum for the exchange of ideas, experiences and solutions to problems and inevitably, things will tend to go off on tangents. Hope the ribs are not too sore. :)

Nope ! Personally, i enjoy the exchange. I've been programming for 16 years, and just *discovered* the internet, and UT, a few months ago. There do seem to be some *tort* type rules that get learned the hard way. Typing in caps, whether to respond to the top or bottom of a message, interrupting threads.... Perhaps an expansion of the new *Rules of Conduct* would help newbies like me. Anyway, good luck with your consulting. This is the BEST forum on net !!
