Need to re-register ASP.NET?
C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v#VERSIONNUMBER#\aspnet_regiis -i
(Edit #VERSIONNUMBER# as needed - do a DIR if you don't know)

Re: honeybee
A period 2 lines down means it's a final statement

First of all I am surprised and kinda honoured to see a thread titled with my name.
Secondly to answer your question, long back when I joined the forums, I formed this habit of starting all my replies (and sometimes threads) with "Well ..." and ending with a blank line followed by a period. I don't know how I came to do that, but I decided to stick with it as an identity of my own.
When I rejoined after a long long break, I dropped the habit of starting the posts with "Well ...", but stuck with the blank line and period.

Re: honeybee
I think, the advantage of using a period at the end of his posts is that, it would make it more readable. Because his signature is also of the same text size and text color. If he didn't included a period, it would look messy.
@honeybee: I'm not complaining about it. Please take this in the good sense.

I wondered about that myself. I was thinking, Overly Curious Disease. I did a search and it's Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. You can read about it on the wikipedia page. I had heard of it before but didn't connect the abbreviation with it.

Oh, I am actually overwhelmed by having a thread with my name in it and the attention it's receiving! I am afraid I shall contract OAD now (Overwhelming Attention Disorder).

There's also OVD. Overwhelming Vanity Disorder.
honeybee, you have PTLALSH. It's not too serious. It just means Period Two Lines After Last Sentence Habit.

Re: honeybee
I've always thought of honeybee as a he. I thought Lord Rat was a she and he turned out to be a he and now honeybee is a she when I thought she was a he. Sounds a little bit poetic.

Well, since you have the prefix Lord in your username and female character avatar I though you were male. However, honeybee on the other hand I was never sure and still aren't sure despite having a baby for an avatar.

Re: honeybee
I would have loved to have everyone think of me as a she, because then my perceived IQ would have probably shot up much higher. But I am a he.

Re: honeybee
So Martin why did you think that honeybee was a she?
