Recent claims by the Conservative party that Michael Gove has passed the Turing test and is therefore a real human being have turned out to be ‘inaccurate’.

So Michael Gove tried, and failed, to pass himself off as a 13 year old boy?

...trying to sort out why a list was in the wrong order.
The data comes from a DataGridView, and it's SelectedRows property, and I use Linq methods to process this (eventually) into a comma separated string (ready for a columns list in an SQL statement).
And no matter what I did, it was always backwards: last selected column name first. Now, I know that SelectedRows is returned in "last first" order, that's what I want. So I use Reverse..and nothing changes.
Pull hair, puzzle, change, run, check MSDN, run, puzzle, repeat...realize that's the wrong damn method, that one gets the table names...

Indeed. There tend to be more "?" in the comments section then in the actual question. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Hi All,
I know there are several Cyclist regulars here so you maybe able to answer the question, on my walk to (& from) work I usually walk past a cycle path in which none of the cyclists use. It is on the side of a (at times busy) road. Having walked up & down this road both day & night I can say for certain that cyclists use the foot path not the cycle lane. Also in town/shopping areas a lot of the locals ride in pedestrian areas and view pedestrians as either viable targets to run down or an inconvenience (tends to be hip youngsters). The worst however are the "I'm riding to save the earth type" you point out to them that the bike they are riding is made from very polluting alloys, the fact that the lycra outfit is made form oil... the best thing they could do is walk get greeted by the "I haven't got time", just thinking... (all right I flatten by a cyclist this morning and letting the venom out  )

I do use the cycle lane if available (and in a decent state). If the cycle lane is not available or practicable, I just ride on the road. I never ride in the foot path.
As runner, however, I often invade the cycle path.
Veni, vidi, vici.

Cyclists are to road users what cats are to humans: evil.
Unless you are a cyclist, in which case Everyone not riding a bicycle are to road users what cats are to humans: evil.
Oh, and yes, cats are evil anyway.

Isn't it odd how many people rant against cyclists whenever they see one doing something wrong on the road? And yet we almost never hear similar tirades against motorists, who regularly drive at 30-40% above the speed limit down the road where I live, park on the pavement, jump red lights, fail to stop at pedestrian crossings, etc., etc. Or the pedestrians who step out in front of me when I'm riding (legally) on the road on my bike?
And, for the record, I regularly walk, cycle, and drive (motorbike and car). And probably break the odd rule.
