Yeah, that would give a deeper meaning to the word "satisfaction" that OP was referring to! 
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

So we had 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, the obvious way to extend that pattern is clearly 4.5.2

They did 3 point releases for 4.0, this is the 2nd one for 4.5. IMO doing it this way is cleaner than 1.1 SP1 or worse 1.1 SP1 with KB1234567 patch versioning that they've done before.

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?

Great, last inplace upgrade they had (4.5) messed up MSBuild. What will this do?

For without it, it seems I would have no luck at all 
Wednesday morning on my way to work, the driver of a Porsche made an insanely illegal move, pulling out of his left turn lane and cutting straight across three lanes to turn right at the intersection instead of left. Unfortunately, he never saw me coming and I was going the speed limit in this 50 mph zone.
If he had only used his right-turn blinker, maybe I could have started breaking and trying to avoid hitting him earlier, but as it was, he just kept driving diagonally in front of me and all the breaking and turning I did could not prevent me smashing into the side of his car (although I am sure it lessened the impact).
As I sat there looking at my deployed airbag and a ton of glass scattered on my hood (presumably from his right side windows), I checked to make sure I was ok and got out of my car. I was trying to figure out where the sunshine had come to rest, but several witnesses told me he stopped for a few seconds and then took off.
Another witness came back a little later and told me he tried to catch him, but could not keep up with him. I was surprised he could drive at all, because my car had to be towed to a body shop.
My insurance company will cover the damages if they never identify the driver, but even with 5 witnesses telling the same story and saying I was completely without fault, I have to pay the $1,000 deductible unless they extend me the courtesy and waive it.
My hand, shoulder, ribs and neck are aching a bit (I expect increased pain tomorrow morning), but I was lucky and I don't think I have any serious injuries.
And this happened the day after my wife had a biopsy on a number of lumps in her knee - we are crossing our fingers for good news when the results are ready on Monday.

I am not really a big fan of the Simpsons, but I think you were trying to cheer me up a bit, so thanks.

I like Homer's version of "If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all" - and let's face it, if with all Homer's bad luck he can still smile, there's hope for us all..

 Hmmm, does that mean there is also hope for the driver of the Porsche? I think I need a little time to decide if I am ok with that.

In the scheme of things, you're OK, your insurance company will pick up most if not all of the bill, so it's not all that bad (not belittling it at all, but you could have been burned horribly in a fiery wreck!)
The fact that the driver of the other vehicle took of suggests one of a few things (stolen, drunk, kid borrowing mummy's car) one can only hope they shat their pants and won't do something like this again.
It would be nice it the cops could find them - if only to give you closure. I'm sure it would be quite easy to find them if the cops had the manpower - if they'd killed someone you can bet they'd be in the lock-house by now, but one must prioritise.

Yes, I know you are right and I have also been thinking about how easily I could have rolled over, smashed into a concrete barrier or something similar. My previous car was totaled in an accident four years ago, when an elderly lady ran a red light and plowed into me, spinning my car around 180°. But this accident was at a higher speed and it really does make you think.
As I drove to work in the rental car Thursday and Friday, I did slow down as I passed the site of the accident - hit me once, shame on you... 
It is quite possible that there is a huge brown stain in the driver's seat of that Porsche. After all, I saw the car coming (although I realized too late just how far across the road he was headed), but I really believe that he never saw me at all. A smack like that coming from out of nowhere would scare the crap out of most of us.

Hello Sir,
Hmmm it sounds like the story of Bruce Almighty  Well if you believe in astrology(we Indians do believe a lot) it is sometimes the planetary position which may cause such things to happen.
Speaking about myself : When i was in college i had a exam, when i was going to give the exam there was a huge traffic jam, the traffic police caught me. I reached late that day, i flunked in that paper. When i was returning home, i met with an accident.
When i reached home and turned on my TV it said
Quote: You have not paid the bill of your TATA SKY, we are discontinuing your services.
This was the most epic mishap.
I slept that day, when i woke up the next day, every thing was all good. After a few months when i gave my paper for re-evaluation, i cleared that paper with good marks.
Things do happen, the only thing you can do is take it in your stride. If you think you are gone. Well my best wishes are with you and your family.
Thanks a ton,
Rahul

Thanks man. I also had a run of bad luck back in December, but this one has the potential of being much more costly.

Hello Sir,
I will pick up lines from your own quote:
Quote: "When you don't know what you're doing it's best to do it quickly" - Jase #DuckDynasty
I will modify it:
Quote: When you dont know whats happening with you....forget it quickly.
yes i understand, the best thing is never to keep anything in the heart, just spill the beans, it helps.
we are all your friends here and again my best wishes are with you. And please remember this happens because of bad planetary positions, when the phase changes all of a sudden every thing is smooth sailing.
Thanks a ton,
Rahul

Thanks Dinesh,
Yes, fortunately I have not had any pain since the day of the accident. Quite a nice surprise as I know how those things usually work.

Thanks. The results will be ready on Monday, but she is relieved to have this first step out of the way. The doctor had told her, he would have to make an incision and go deep in order to take the samples  . He ended up doing it with a big, fat needle instead - better, but still...

As the Porsche was probably stolen you may be thankful he did not stop. Pissed off robbers are not the most pleasant people.
