What kind of school is that which does not want you to learn things. These are really good articles by Ed Bott clearing up some of the sagas that we propagate each day.

whs, that series of articles by Ed Bott is great. I've skimmed through parts 1-3, but didn't know about part 4. I must read them all thoroughly, 'cause it's very informative.

Jack, HTG has a blog so how can you see it at school?

HTG hasn't yet been grouped in the security filters at WebSense, I imagine, which is why we aren't blocked from anywhere.

Ed Bott's series is definitely excellent, which is no surprise coming from him.

Aleeve, What do you mean by "heavy"? Too detailed, too much info or what?

I guess you misunderstood what I meant. If you are more the "experimental" type that does not like to read detailed specs, the Ed Bott stuff is heavy handed. If you are like me, who had to read technical specs half of their life, it is more business as usual. Has nothing to do with brain power. Much more a question of practice.
