Welcome Scott! Great to see you on the Ranch!

The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts. Think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day. The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny - it is the light that guides your way. - Heraclitus

Thanks everyone! I'm a little late logging in, sorry about that. I was at a client the past few days and the hotel I was in didn't have high-speed access (hard to imagine these days, but...).

Scott,
this is off-topic, but there is currently a discussion about how to show Exceptions in UML going on in the OO forum, and with your experience in modeling and UML, I would highly welcome your comments!

But for those of us that miss out on the freebies, it's still a great buy!
