Quick side topic: This post made me laugh a little because it reminded me of a conversion that I had with my wife a few days ago. I admit that I'm a geek and use the whole gamut of acronyms, pseudonyms and terms that we all love. She asked me the usual, "How was your afternoon?" and rather than the usual "Went great!" or "It was all right" I decided to actually tell her what I did that afternoon and I needed SOMEONE to hear it because I was especially proud of myself for overcoming a huge issue. I'm sure many of you feel the same way sometimes that you want to talk to someone, ANYONE who could grasp the monumental feat of intellectual gymnastics that you just performed... So I just had to tell her.
I spent at leat 20-30 minutes going over the problem, how I diagnosed the problem, researched it, took a couple of stabs at it and how I solved it. At the end she was just staring at me, so I asked "What?", thinking perhaps she finally understood how earth-shattering this news was. She responded, "Huh? Oh, I was just thinking we should paint the hallway yellow instead of green." Bummer. I haad my heart set on Sunshine Yellow for that hallway. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Kear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 01, 2005 9:12 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Use THIS scope or not? Thanks for your response Michael. I have seen endless discussion of the "this" scope for months. I wrote the question I did, because I am confused. Use "this" or not? I've read all that stuff, and now I dont know what to do. What does "... abstracted from the user thus require a different play book." mean? What's abstracting mean in this context? What's a "play book"?
