They are not really relevant. I could have just as easily referred to the Filipina & Indian as non-American. I think the American's ethnicity is important because she had an accent that was not the type that offshored workers try to emulate, which means that she was based in the USA. I think that she was based in the USA because I have a hunch that have is an independent contractor for AT&T that gets paid on any commission, so she would not want to steer me in any direction to save me money.

A blonde, a brunette, and a redhead all work at the same office for a female boss who always goes home early.
"Hey girls," says the brunette, "Let's go home early tomorrow. She'll never know."
The next day, they all leave right after the boss does.
The brunette gets some extra gardening done, the redhead goes to a bar, and the blonde goes home to find her husband cheating on her with the female boss!
Quietly, the blonde sneaks out of the house and returns at her normal time.
The next day the three meet at the office.
"That was fun," says the brunette. "We should do it again sometime."
"No way," says the blonde. "I almost got caught!"

I was browsing through the "3 open source projects for modern COBOL development" article under the Developer News section. It referenced a book by one Micheal Coughlan. The very one who taught me my first COBOL back in the spring of '87!

Open source pays better than teaching now?

Why not? I started out using COBOL. It's not a language I'd choose today, but I learned it and used it for something like the first 5 years of my career.

Why does Visual Studio 2010 (VB) have the Launch Condition underlined in red? and how to fix.
I believe is it related to the .net version. The program has the full .Net 4 profile selected but the launch comes up with a link to the client profile. When changing the launch condition via the dropdown to the full profile the URL does not change.
Shouldn't there be a good explanation for all of this?

Ok, your first mistake is VB. After that, nothing much will help.
|
|
|
|

Then the mistake was made a long time ago.
How about some real help????

Right now I am in the middle of converting 4 old VB ASP.Net projects to c# so I think I need the help a lot more than you do!

How about giving us enough information to help you? Remember, we're not the NSA; we can't see your screen, access your computer, or read your mind. You need to give us a clue WTE you're talking about.
Also, this looks suspiciously like a programming question. Try reading the text at the top of this forum:

Hmm: something up at Arvixe. Taking ages to respond to support tickets and the mail.domain.com server has been down since yesterday. Had an issue with a site a couple of weeks ago and they took over a week to respond!
Think it's time to move everything to Amazon - have enough to do without having to worry about a web host.

Yeah, sorry for the repetition, just a bit mad at them for really poor service plus it is a pain to move stuff.

I love astronomy and I love these images, don't care if they've been doctored in some way, they represent the most beautiful aspects of our universe. I lament the fact that I will never get the chance to go out there and explore.

There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Somewhere, I've heard that the micro/nano world resembles the super-macro universe shown here. So, 'looking down an electron microscope' would yield similar images; which means that you're already there - touching and feeling these objects, albeit without directly perceiving them.
