    Angry Submit Reply = Cry :(

    Geeesh
    i posted a 1000000 billion word reply to the thread http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...180#post500180 and when i clicked the Submit button it came up with page not found error. So i click the back button on the browser and its all gone!! D'oh. So, if any one sees my post in a bin on some side street can u pls send it back to me... no need for a stamp i will pay at this end.

    Is this normal behaviour? Does anyone copy their post before they press the submit button in case of errors? When will the pope die?

    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    Does he know? I tried to phone him (VAT69), but they said he'd taken his dogma for a walk.

    What timezone is this BTW?

    And is he really Catholic?

    well it took a while and i shoulda saved it but i figured it wouldve taken 2 C90 tapes in my Vic20 cassette player. And that wouldve meant taping over a Spice Girls album. So, i took a wild risk and entrusted my valuable insights to this sites reliability.

    PS I saw the pope once at Vatican..stupid pope mumblin away and stopping me from getting in the cathedral cos i went on a Wednesday. Well, i will try again in 2012.

    You probably had AutoCensor switched on by mistake, and the system realised what a load of tripe you were submitting and lost it to save us the hassle of reading it.
