Pete O'Hanlon wrote: the crowd who frequent this place
Indeed, a madding crowd of Hardy Boys, oft tragic as Tess was, oft vexed as Gabriel was with Bathsheba.Quote: Far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife
Their sober wishes never learn'd to stray;
Along the cool sequester'd vale of life
They kept the noiseless tenor of their way.
Thomas Gray Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard The source of the title of the later novel by Thomas Hardy, Far From the Madding Crowd
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

I didn't really understand what Gabriel saw in Bathsheba Everdene. When you look at the relationship he shared with her - driving her to move to get away, it's worse than something that would play out on daytime TV now.

Possibly a little easy, but I like it!
Do you want the answer now, or let the others have a go?
Well, that decides that one!

It was indeed a nice easy one - mainly because my commute was disrupted by a bus strike so it was totally off the top of my head.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I don't know if that's funny or painful.
Ipad? It just connects.
Two android phones and three android tablets? They just connect.
Windows laptop & tablet? "Checking network requirements".
I'd bet that they're not "checking" anything; they just put that message up to cover the fact that they're cr@p at connecting.
