    Speak for yourself. As the Countess Scarlioni will confirm, I'm "all man".

    Fsck it, overshot.

    Time travel is not so difficult you know, it's the right angle turns at the start and end that are a bit of a booger.

    Are the aliens here yet? On your time line the little green men make themselves known this year (except they are not little, green or infact men).

    It is the Russian view that the way you meet the new year will determine how this year is going to be.

    What are your achievements so far in the New Year?
    There was a New Year?...a few drinks too many perhaps...in which case I can't answer that!

    No. On that evening I was working on multi-way merging algorithm to replace current two-way merging that is not as efficient in a long run.

    I have actually succeeded near 8am and now I just need to augment new code with smarter minimum-comparison algorithm and then parallelise code to run more efficiently on dual (or more) cores/processors.

    What are your achievements so far in the New Year?

    AtW, please tell me you were not on here the entire evening, date and time properties open, hitting the 'Update Now' button every few seconds just to check that your post would be sent on time...

    "Bugger, I came home too late to win this enthralling contest." - likewise BFG, please tell me that the most exciting thing you could think of on coming home this morning was not fire up the PC and check this forum for new posts...

    In any case, a Happy New Year!
    As far as I recall my good lady wife (who earlier in the evening claimed to be fantastic at pacman in her younger days) and I decided it would be a good idea to play a pacman challenge versus our friends for vodka shots, but it gets a bit hazy from there. I think we lost.

    Why the hell I went onto this board I have absolutely no idea.

    In which case it is obvious that GMT settings are appropriate since its UK Contractors.

    Post dated in this thread - whatever happens in real world is totally irrelevant.
