This is the second time this exact question has been posted:http://qa.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic640498-1291-1.aspx
No answers to the questions, no further interaction at all. I wouldn't be surprised to see it again in two or three days.
Care to join me in my trek across the desert?
Actually, no. It's easier to deal with guys that never, ever respond than what you've got going on over there.

Yeah, but did you see the reply to that?What's up with the grapes table that only has a priority column? What does that have to do with anything at all?
Yes, I did. And I just shot back two replies of my own. Grant, is that stick you have made of iron wood?

Now that I read the thread, I have a scene from "Jerry Maguire" running through my head AND IT WON'T COME OUT. Thanks, Ninja.
I don't have a stick made of iron wood, but I have a bag full of woods and irons. I think maybe a 5-iron for Lynn's "friend".

Haven't seen the movie, how about a quick synopsis of the scene you have in your head? May help get it out of there...

Oak right now. I want one of Appalachian Hickory (http://www.kingfisherwoodworks.com/[/url]).
For this job a thick enough piece of pine will work.

It sounds more like a Monty Python sketch to me.

At some point you just have to give up, unsubscribe and move on. How much time has been wasted at this point?

No, no, wait. I've got it. The fruit really did it.

Cool... I'd love to get back into the martial arts. I've been out of for 22 years now. Still, I remember enough to be able to defend myself.

Sometimes you gotta hope against hope that the OP finally gets "it" and provides you with the answer(s) you need to help them out.
