American my arse! You'll notice I spelt "colour" correctly.
I'm Scottish, just living in the colonies temporarily (21 years now...!)

I had been looking down Wikipedia's glossary of nautical terms but I got bored in the Ls and gave up.
Just checked, I'd have got there in the end if I wasn't such a quitter.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I just searched the term line and eventually got there without having to read everything on that page.

Yeah, that would have been a smarter plan.

If you want to have a technical question answered in the Lounge, post using a female looking username.

Well as everybody knows, females need to be treated with gloves, so maybe i should change my username
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

Or provide a decent amount of information with the question (it was written much better than the usual Q&A questions - "plz give me codez", etc)
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

Top post in the C# forum was originally posted in the Lounge. It got a few sensible answers and was there for awhile before people did the usual "wrong Forum Please read the sticky at the top post". Whether this was down to the username or the quality of the question is up for debate.

Got it. And reply to our question is 50-50. We could confirm that 100% if we see one more similar thread.
