![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif) In memoriam beloved Elwood Quigley, age eight, late of New Jersey by way (ancestrally) of China and Mexico: the world's now less one mohawk-tufted Yoda impersonator, and, it's a darker, more hopeless world, for all that.
"After garnering the ugly title, Elwood became an online darling and developed a worldwide fan base. During his life, he appeared at more than 200 events that helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for animal rescue groups and nonprofit animal organizations" [^].

"What Turing gave us for the first time (and without Turing you just couldn't do any of this) is he gave us a way of thinking about and taking seriously and thinking in a disciplined way about phenomena that have, as I like to say, trillions of moving parts.
Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett

Elwood was fine, but his wife was a bitch.

Poor Elwood....

My sympathy to the owner. We lost our little dog a few months ago and we are still not over it, he was such a large part of our lives. It looks like Elwood was a great ambassador for diversity and looking more than skin deep at people as well as dogs.
RIP Elwood.

Don't you think there are already enough to cover just about every subject? Plus Q&A and rootadmin. What exactly do you think is missing?

The geek (my eldest, 9) is giving her mum a lesson in entering unicode values on a chromebook for putting symbols on her school homework presentation.
She has also now bookmarked a website that has the look up tables for the symbols to unicode hex values.
Too amusing...

I bet people here remember VS2012's 'Waiting for a background operation to complete' dialog. Well, VS2013 has that dialog, but with the message 'Waiting for a required operation to complete' instead.
Looks like someone on the VS team has some sense left!

But is it waiting for its complement of lemon-soaked towelettes?

Of course! It needs it's comfort, refreshment and hygiene like the rest of us.
