I forgot to post this from a while ago…but I still want to rant…
I read this post and couldn't help think about my flight experience last week. My family, which includes three kids between 4 and 8, were flying to Newark via AirTran. We arrived at the airport slightly late (but not that late); we didn't think to ask the TSA to let us skip to the head of the line and consequently after an hour in line, we finally made it through. It was 9:05 for a 9:20 flight. We went to get on the train to get to Concourse C. And, the train was broken… So, with all our stuff for three kids—and the three kids, we ran all the way. My wife and I taking turns to carry the kids at one point or another. We got to the gate at exactly 9:20 with 3 other people. The gate agent couldn't care less that the train was broken or that I just looked like I'd taken a shower. The plane was at the gate, they just wouldn't let any of us on the plane.
I recently upgraded Internet Explorer from IE6 to IE7. I added the "debugger" command to my javascript and I tried to debug, but I kept receiving an error message that said "There is no source code available for the current location." I found a few articles talking about this and I found information that VS2005 was going to be patched with VS2005SP1. The short of it is: there is a Microsoft knowledgebase article 930873. I downloaded the hotfix and all is working. Alternatively, you can move the javascript into an external file and it will work that way as well.
