113'F is maybe a tad warm, but you can always supplement that with
I will settle for at least some summer before winter kicks in.

It was nearly the hottest Scottish Spring on record (according to the Met Office, so probably wrong).
I meant to add this to the solar panel thread.
Scottish Spring is a very different thing to Arab Spring.

1st day of Hurricane season for us here, our sphincters don't loosen up until Nov. when it's over.
Here today gone to Maui...

I'll be interested to see what happens this year. They overestimated the hurricane activity for the last few years, now they're saying it'll be a "slow season." It would be ironic if one could measure hurricane activity by the inverse of the predictions.
In any case, good luck! Though even here near Albany NY we've had considerable damage from Irene and Sandy.

When I lived in Jacksonville, FL 9 was a particularly bad year we had 3 within a couple of weeks, they weren't direct hits but scarey. The last big one was in 64 so they are due.

I heard those were pretty bad, hopefully that's all for a while.

Good job of those students. I hope they were rewarded with a good grade.

Stack Overflow is down. OMG, I had no idea how frequently I rely on this for various little code snippets. It occurs to me that my productivity is significantly enhanced my SO, and significantly crippled when it's down. Wow. I guess this means I'll have to actually think, or worse, use MSDN.

I guess their servers crashed because they couldn't handle the amount of questions/requests you fired at them

That is a pretty damning indictment of CodeProject that your find your knowledge route is crippled by the unavailability of SO. What went wrong here?

Unless you specifically prefix with CP google serves up SO responses well before CP and I guess we all just go for the first response that looks close, this reinforces SOs dominance etc etc etc.
I think it is going to be tough for CP to dent that. I find CP more a community which I don't see on SO.

Quote: I find CP more a community which I don't see on SO. Yeah, I find SO to be pretty harsh sometimes (then again, I don't spend much time in the QA here )

Maybe it is the questions I have, but I rarely see good answers on SO. I have seen many wildly inaccurate answers get high marks from there. I tend to find that I get most of my answers from blogs and articles here on CP.

I think that is most probably the difference, or the type of work, I'm doing donkey work of creating apps rather than pushing the envelope.

Be fair - I've seen the same here too...

Indeed. This is the problem with any rep based/badge based system, with people running all over each other in the pursuit of a high score - as though it were an ego-fest video game, rather than a means of helping others out.
