Aha!

What do you advise me to do?

Fit webcams on your sunglasses, so that you can see behind you, and have a two-way radio installed in the heel of your shoe.
Oh, and send me all your computer hardware, so that I can inspect it for listening devices/keyloggers -- the investigation will only take a couple of years.

It could be related to this[^]. Users get points for bookmarking a post, so you'll sometimes get idiots randomly bookmarking thousands of posts to increase their CodeProject score. Quite what they intend to do with all those points is anyone's guess.

151576. That's libido factor. I had it twice when I was 15 and the next time is scheduled for when I'm 76, if I can still remember by then.

First of all, I understand that Code Project is, first and foremost, a site for developers and that its responsibilities do not include commentary on non-developer related events. That being said, it is my personal opinion that a site and newsletter that has such a large following has the privileged opportunity to pass on a small message of remembrance.
Unlike Christmas, Easter, or other holidays through the year, Remembrance Day is recognized in some form in many countries through the world, is non-political and non-denominational so it shouldn't create conflicts within the CP membership and can be done without offending anyone from the numerous regions, cultures, political views, and religions that make up the CP membership. It is important to recognize both the commitment and sacrifice of those past and present that served to protect us.
So I respectfully request that the great people that make up the CP team please consider making just a small mention of remembrance on future November 11ths.

While I applaud your wanting to commemorate Remembrance day, remembrance is, and should be, a personal thing. However, it is important to remember as well, that Remembrance day is not actually a fixed point for all nations. Some examples[^]

And it isn't observed at all in Germany for some strange reason...

Correct, though they do have their own days of mourning and commemoration (from Wiki "in practice this is the Sunday closest to 16 November").

Here you are wrong.
There are many Commonwealth War Graves in Germany and at each and every cemetery there is a service. This applies throughout the World; maybe the countries don't observe it, but someone always will.

Hi Pete - thank you for your feedback, though I respectfully disagree. A birthday is a personal thing. And I totally agree that individually we may have different personal thoughts or memories related to remembrance, ranging from relatives who have fought, those currently serving, or simply a solemn respect for those who died. I was not suggesting that all CP members participate in a moment of silence (which would be a personal choice), rather I was just suggesting that we recognize that today is Remembrance Day. The manner in which an individual personally pays tribute to remembrance does not change the importance of the act itself. Remembrance Day, Armistice Day, Veteran's Day, etc. are days intended to signify (again, without relation to religion, political affiliation, etc.) respect through the simple act of remembrance and, in my humble opinion, is one that should easily transgress borders in all their forms and one with which all individuals should be able to relate in some form. Lest we forget...
You are most certainly correct in saying that not all nations have the same fixed point for Remembrance Day; however, November 11th is a common date for many and marks the armistice of the first World War so is a logical date. Not to mention that CP is Canadian 
But I'll get off my soapbox now - not trying to start a flame war on Remembrance Day

And I disagree that it is.
Today is Armistice Day, yesterday was Remembrance Sunday.
In the UK, for me at least, they are slightly different things.

If you read the sentiment and facts of the entire message I have acknowledged that it may be called different things in different places (be it Armistice Day, Veteran's Days, Remembrance Day, etc.) but what is important is not what each nation may call it, rather that it is being recognized.
So please allow me to reword the above in a manner which shouldn't cause disagreement: "rather I was just suggesting that now is a time of remembrance".

I am sure that there was an upated logo last year.
I also here what you say about "it shouldn't cause offence", however in todays world, there is always someone upset/offended about something.
