Hi All,
I had the day off yesterday, did various things including a trip to the dentist (less said the better, suffice to say I am now looking at food thinking will it send me to orbit!) so didn't realise I had the ISTQB results for a three day course I took. The thing is the main thing I learnt was how to figure out what the question was asking. Why is it seen as a 'good thing' when all it does is find is really test your translation.

Quick, offer your services to NASA as long as they still don't have any system of their own!

The worst bit was the descaling, I swear he was using a Dremel milling bit...

Used that myself yesterday, but not on someone's teeth. 
It was my currently favorite toy[^].

Cue 'Ride of the Valkeryi' & Charlie don't surf!

The surfing part is already on the way to someone else. I participate in a model building contest (topic: Vietnam) and originally wanted to put surfboards on the landing skids. Unfortunately you can have weapons or surfboards, but there is not enough room for both. If you look at the scene from the movie, you will see that it's not the gunships that carry the surfboards.
Another guy was building Kilgore's command Huey at a smaller scale, so I printed the surfboards for him and sent them by mail. But yes, at least I know the soundtrack for the maiden flight.

The filling was fine, the descale hurt. Why don't they do what gets done to kettles use an Acid. Hmmm maybe not such a good plan...I have seen way too many Tooth Paste adds...

Big money fashion consumed a buzz (9)
Sorry I didn't post yesterday. Codeproject was down for me all day yesterday from my work. Have no idea why. Could see it was up from my phone but didn't know my log in details.

I don't get the big money part though  or is it OMB for office monetary budgets or something ?

I mean the AI he has in his signature. I had to do a search by signature, as we had yesterday and had to binary click (C) through 122 pages of Marc's postings before finding the first results I was looking for. And that in less than 10 months. How do you put artificial intelligence into the signature, anyway?

It's a very clever signature.
Unlike CodeWraith's, which is mostly thinking about food.

Someone was searching for postings containing the words 'artificial intelligence' and got many results from Marc because his signature contains these words.

I hope they don't debug this important feature away. A search for unique parts of the signature is often better than the official options.

The last time I had a question answered was in Septermber 2015.
Two questions in 2014 recived a combined total of five answers, leaving those out we have to go all the way back to 2011 for my record - 4 responses. In 2011 / 2012 I could fairly consistently count on 2 responses.
What do I need to do differently for a better response rate?

It really depends on the questions. A detailed description of the problem and the occurung errors are helpful. A lot of answering can do the Google search box 
Press F1 for help or google it.

That can also be a detriment. If you fully explain a problem and provide comprehensive example code, people lose interest/get bored, and move on.
