I know... I had to add a "Don't use the obsolete collection pattern" chapter to the coding style guide for my team...

It did for me too. That is until 2005 when .Net 2.0 came out. Just saying. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Yes, but they didn't add a generic alternative to the collection so I still have to cast even today.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Not so much "belt and braces" and "braces and braces and braces" code.

That containment field seems a little weak. Tack on a few more pairs to be sure it safely contains that massive expression.

A question this morning, and as part of explaining what was causing the problem he had noticed, I suggested that this code:
string checkuser = " select count(*) from UserDetail where UserName='" + TextBoxUN + "'";
Wasn't going to work, because it would be the same as writing:
string checkuser = " select count(*) from UserDetail where UserName='System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox'";
And he should use TextBoxUN.Text instead, but that it was dangerous because of SQL Injection.
Unrelated to the problem he had noticed, but going to be a problem soon.
So...fast forward a couple of hours, and the same user has a new problem: his code doesn't find his username:
string checkuser = " select count(*) from UserDetail where UserName='System.Web.UI.WebControls.TextBox'";
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand(checkuser, conn);

I'm with the army, and do not bother with anything. Technically speaking it's the air force I'm with, but I still don't bother.
After two weeks I now think about starting a Zen Buddhism class, that's how much I bother.

Switzerland has an air force? 
That doesn't involve folded sheets of paper? 
Why was I not informed?

The airforce is probably the most useful part of the swiss military, and reasonably good equipped. They maintain their own fiberglass high speed network across switzerland, and even the radar stations on the top of the mountains are connected to it.

Yeah. With breathtaking 8 Mbit/s transfer rate 
I know that. Because well, thats what I did/do during my army time. Setting up radio stations to connect to that network. Well, it's enough for telephones and fax devices

Origami Death Star Instructions:
1. Take square of paper (from newspaper should work well).
2. Screw it up into a ball.
3. Press thumb into one side to create recess.
4. er.. that's it.

I am simply liking the tag line: "I would love to change the world but they won't release the source code."
