Chill, MM. He's trying to wind you up. If he succeeds, he thinks he's won, but the reality is that everyone here loses.

Well, my second thought was to ask them to move it to skype, so we could have video.

Why do you let someone (who you clearly don't like) bother you so much?
People are weird.

Excuse me, I am not weird ... uh don't ask SWMBO.

Wrong forum.
You want the surveys page.

You're right - Everybody was quite negative in that thread. The only one who was positive was Tom Hanks... (and his wife)!

You don't need any. Here's plenty of nifty DIY projects in case you're bored during the weekend:

I dunno, the obvious (at least to me) path would be an anagram of "Charley coming" but I got nothing... maybe a chemical or product name perhaps... dunno 
|
|

|

No I would never use a product name - chemical names yes - but this isn't one

I was going to go with 'unplanned pregnancy' but that was too many letters.

No, not all of us. I avoided this secondary problem by never getting married to the primary problem in the first place. But most men are hopeless optimists who believe that they can easily tame the old dragon if they can tame the younger dragon.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Not being an optimist, I (living in Israel) married a woman whose family lives in South Africa.

I can't believe how a message can get skewed as it goes through different ears & mouths and finally change the context completely.
We have a product in the making.
And we also do a POC that's related to the product.
The big guys - the board of directors were on the call And I asked "What are the ways the POC development could actually contribute to the Product roadmap"
The question is valid and all the CTOs & technical guys in the call understand it well.
One of the non-technical directors says "Don't get distracted by the POC, focus on the product, and you shouldn't point to the POC as a reason for slowing down the product development & goes on to explain about the Product roadmap"
Another director echoes - "Guys, this has been discussed over and over, let's not waste more time on this question again"
Finally, one good empathizing tech boss intervenes & explains the context and which is not against the development of the POC. It was all about correlating the POC effort with the product.
It's been really tough formulating the message clear with the right vocabulary while talking to the non-tech big shots. It's a tough exercise!
