Dear Maximilien,
I am deeply and truly sorry. May the changes you'll see in your Codeproject experience be of acceptable harm to oyu, your friends and family and your personal pursuit of happiness. I take of course full responsibility for setting things in motion, but at the same time we both have to admit that the effects that I sincerely hope won't mean significant permanent harm to you are beyond our control.
Thing is, and I hang my head in shame, instead of the post you replied to I accidentally reportet your reply as Spam.
May the algorithmic gods have mercy on our souls.

Hang the spammer Maximilien (he has been reported so it must be true - we need to add this fact to his sig immediately and inform the world of his behaviour)

Mel & Sue[^]'s website doesn't appear to have been touched since 2002. How has it managed to still live?
The email sign works, but I haven't received anything aside from a confirmation yet (different address to the one I got the sacking on so I didn't just sign up to a virus delivery service (I'm not quite that stupid)).
I wonder what the oldest website still live is, by oldest I mean longest ago modified, and why it still lives. Does someone just sign off on the invoice every couple of years without thinking, or was it paid for upfront for a long, long time? Is there anyway to find out?

I can see why that one is still around, looks like some useful real good entertainment there.

Talking of Mel and Sue. What do you make of there Comedic Ability? Most people I come across(wipe it off in disgust) can't stand Sue but don't mind Mel.

My dad really, really hates Sue. "That hideous bitch" I think is how he last described her.
Mel is naturally very funny because she seems a little bit mental, on 8 out of 10 cats she was very funny indeed.
I can't really remember their time as a double act, can remember watching it but cannot remember if it was any good. Discovered by French & Saunders IIRC.

I'm with your Dad on that one, really can't stand her and have no idea how she got a career. I have a theory that somebody once told her she was funny when she was 12 and she believed it.
Having said that, I love the GBBO and watch it just to hate her, even watched it instead of England Norway the other week. And no I'm not Gay.

Not counting that, I know sometimes websites get moved to servers and just left there. When a company gets big it often can't control it's domain names well enough to know which ones it has to toss. So it keeps paying. When you have thousands, and some are going to require research to determine whether they have value, it usually just is cheaper to pay the registry fee.

I'm WFHing today and even though it's been less than an hour am already raging at the total lack of palm rejection in my crappy Lattitude's touchpad. This is made worse by the fact that Dell removed the disable when mouse is plugged and disable within 1/n seconds of a keystroke features from the driver meaning that any time I try to type the touchpad sends my cursor flying all over the screen. The only option I can find is one to totally disable the touchpad, but it's buried deeply enough that I'd never be able to find it without help, nor could I get there with only the keyboard; and I don't want to always have to drag a mouse with me for meetings when I'm going to barely touch my laptop.
Can anyone recommend a 3rd party utility that works in win7 to do the automatic on/off for me; even a manual toggle would be acceptable if the app is keyboard drivable and could be pinned to my start menu for easy access.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
