I will second that. Frans well done, brilliantly said. Even though I didn't answer to either threads, on/off topic!

As I am one of the ones who replied, not to the question at hand, but to the tone of an answer, I would like to offer my apologies to the ENTIRE group. In the future, I will limit my posts to questions, and (if I get a whole lot smarter) answers. Again, my apologies.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Frans Bouma Sent: Monday, July 26, 2004 12:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] Common Sort Order for .NET and SQL Server I'd like to add that of all the people participating in this thread, a very low number actually tried to answer the question(s). (2 or 3 to my knowledge) You all may get offended when someone is less 'diplimatically correct' with saying things, fact is that taking time to answer off-topic issues but not taking time to answer the ON-TOPIC issue (the start of the thread) is pretty erm... let's say it bluntly: wrong. IF you all get so offended because someone calls your president a retard or worse, and you take the time to reply to THAT, please, also take the time to answer the question at hand. After all this IS a Q/A list, not a list where someone should be interested in your political motives, fav. color or on which grounds someone gets kicked out of his lazy chair. Thank you.
