Fantastic video. A C# project that runs a disco floor for the most excellent purpose of getting girls to come visit! Has anyone contacted Marketing? "C#: The programming language that runs your enterprise and improves your love life! At better retailers everywhere. Oh, and don't forget to see our new Vista OS on display -- now with AEROGLASS technology."

I bumped my dose of Zoloft (sertraline) up a bit, and it seems to be helping out a lot with things like hand touching.

It still makes me feel weird, but I feel more comfortable now than before.

That said, I only touched his knuckles - for some reason, that's OK with my neuroses

This is a common maneuver of mine. To avoid a handshake, I'll often offer to hug someone or to do knuckles.

Plenty of human contact, so people are happy, and I can avoid getting any diseases (which doesn't seem to have worked - at home with a bad flu right now - blah).

:s ?

Rory. Man, you really need to start shaking hands. Its exactly because you don't that you get the cold. Let me put it in MS terms. ;)

See, your immune system is sorta like Windows Live OneCare and it needs to be updated once in a while to keep the virus definitions up to date (i.e. get as many virus samples for your immune system to train on... especially new, updated vira). If you don't use the automatic update in windows your computer would be left wide open for anyone who'd like to get access. Just like your body is now open for all sorts of exploitation... :O

Ehh, wait. That last part didn't sound right... Well, you get the point. :P

So just go out and jump in an unclean pool... Sniff your fingers after poo poo, and sleep in a reactor core once in a while... It's all REALLY good for you! :D

Nah, I really like your interviewing style and your vids in general... Keep'em coming and keep up the good work!

I was thinkin similarly, but I want to see first if it makes sense to add the extra tag.

I think it will be, but I want to wait a little...

He really needs to hook up with my friend Martin who just delivered a video curtain to a cruise ship (which looks awesome and also driven by C#) - it would be totally Disco-tastic!
