[Sorry, off-topic] I saw the name in the link and thought it might be this Chris Norman[^]. I have been a fan of Smokie[^] since the 70's and now I need to find a couple of tunes.

A dating web site is in big troubles[^] while trying to manually populate fake dating profiles.
An advanced dating profile generator can surely bring you lots of riches and fame.

Something like that non-sensical comment generator?
Like the one using that[^] as a template? 
Still makes me chuckle when I remember seeing the bots fail and posting their source template

You know when I read something like that the thing that immediately comes to mind is that it's a pity they both can't lose.
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?

Wait, you mean a dating website for people to cheat on their spouses is doing something immoral?

Herself watches a variety of TV programmes that hold no interest for me. One of those is "ER", which she set up to record on Sky+ yonks ago, as it is on at 07:00 and she can watch it when she gets back from work.
Today, there are howls of rage, and sufferous swearing as she finds it hasn't been recorded, and isn't in the sky planner, and she can't find it anywhere to put it back...
Don't you love computers and the internet? 30 or 40 seconds to find it's now on at 05:00 on Atlantic (gawd knows why, or what else they show) and she's a happy bunny again...ah...and I get loadsa brownie points for doing nothing particularly difficult

In that category though, 200K does not even get you bronze status.

That should be either "5 PM" or "17:00" - "05:00" suggests AM. 
OriginalGriff wrote: gawd knows what else they show
Atlantic[^] is Sky's "We won't let Virgin carry this channel" channel. They tend to put anything they think might tempt people away from Branson on it. For example, Game of Thrones, The Borgias, Boardwalk Empire.

No, 05:00 is in the morning. The 24-hour notation uses 00-23 for the hours and 00-59 for minutes. It isn't hard and most people can pick it up after a few tries.

Precisely my point. ER is on at 17:00.

Different time zones, the UK is on GMT where as Wales Isn't It is on 1946.

Yep. It's on at 05:00, or 5AM

Really? According to http://tv.sky.com/tv-guide/[^], it's "The Devil's Dinner Party" at 05:00; ER is at 17:00.

90% of what Sky show is "atlantic", that is, cheap stuff sourced from the US that even their viewers got bored of. I don't have Sky and I don't have Virgin. Despite the phone calls we still get from them there's nothing that will tempt me to pay to use either.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Surely, "how" is obvious? The real question would be "why".
