I'm currently in some training to do with a system we purchased that is written in java.
In the overview the trainer said "Java is a very popular language".
I asked him to qualify what he meant by 'popular'.
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

Yes, it's really popular. Especially for me. It's awkward, oldfashioned and, together with its hobbled together IDE, slows me down to a crawl. It's time to dump this stuff into the bucket and write some real code again. Don't tell anybody, but I'm already looking for a good opportunity to quit my job here. Perhaps I will find something with good old C++ again, now that C++ is suddently 'in' again.

I noticed your sig - and have to ask, do you deal with sects that are only talked about - in other words, aural sects?
If so, may I suggest the motto "Prick up your ears"?

Nope, that's the link from your OP. Al Gore comments here.

...and the funny thing is that it's being reported that Samsung are preparing to take Apple to court for various patent violations as soon as the iPhone 5 is released and block it's sale

Chris really should stop bringing his daughter into the office. It seems to be affecting her psyche.

On Sunday, I achieved a cycling milestone by completing a 58.54 miles ride (solo) through North Georgia mountains. It involved climbing about 5000 ft. My speed was 13 mph (I stopped a lot to take pictures once I climbed a mountain).
This ride follows the route of a ride named 3 gaps ride and it is a major cycling event in Georgia. I am participating in it next week. For those interested - http://www.cyclenorthgeorgia.com/[^]
Here are my ride statistics from Garmin:-
http://connect.garmin.com/activity/115483836[^]
http://connect.garmin.com/activity/115483822[^]
Of course, the real bikers I know here Chris (Maunder and Meech) and Gary Wheeler will consider that a recovery ride . But I feel it was a major achievement for me as I was totally out of shape last year.
BTW: I did it on my new bike - Specialized Roubaix Apex[^]. After looking at a bunch of entry level carbon fiber bikes including TTs, I narrowed it down to Specialized Roubaix. I got the 2011 model at a discounted price.

That is pretty awesome. Congrats Rama. That distance and elevation change is something to be rightfully proud of.
