The same thing happens in TV advertising, at least here in the UK. Almost every product these days is "voted product of the year" (by whom one asks, but see Dave Gorman[^]'s take), "5-star rated" (by whom again), or (some variation of) "designed for you". Just meaningless drivel.

Yes, I have noticed such things, about since the arrival of the C64.

I can certainly confirm that playing bagpipes is bad for you health.
... If you play them near to me, at least.

Bagpipes - Next to a march of John Philip Sousa they rate a pathetic "bleah!" for being a barely tolerable cacophony of screeching noises!

Quote: a barely tolerable cacophony of screeching noises Why are you talking about Justin Beiber all of a sudden?

Now you are insulting bagpipes! As I said, bagpipes are barely tolerable. Bieber is totally intolerable!

You would think the sound would sterilize everything in a 100 foot radius.

No.. I very much enjoy the sound of bagpipes.
When I pass, I've asked that bagpipes be played at my funeral; my only regret is that I won't be able to hear it.

Sounds like a market opening to me.
HEPA filters that can be inserted into bagpipes without affecting the sound. If that were in my wheelhouse I'd be all over it.

A gentleman is someone who can play the bagpipe, and who does not
You always obtain more by being rather polite and armed than polite only.

I hope I could get help developing this. I am not done with stuff, want to publish examples. Don't know how to code either. It would be similar to 80's basic (vsbasic) , with new ideas.

Any takers?

Not really. (will not even go to the link).
sorry.

You could try here: Collaboration / Beta Testing Discussion Boards[^]
But... don't just give a link to a random site, few of us will follow it, given that we have no idea who you are. Explain what you want to develop, what you expect to contribute, and what you expect from collaborators. Add in what they get out of it as well.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Looking at that link in Fiddler[^] (not that I'm paranoid much! ) shows a lot of tracking code, some "free hosting" adverts, and a tiny amount of text that you could easily have posted in your message.
No thanks.

So, you want to create VB.NET: are you aware that it already exists?

Always seems to be really stupid Reponses on these message boards. Don't know VB Net. It looks useless here also. It is a world of wankers.
