A wonderful story, thanks ! I read the linked-to essay, by Jeff Ello, and I am glad to know idealism is not dead 
“But I don't want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“Oh, you can't help that,” said the Cat: “we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.”
“How do you know I'm mad?” said Alice.
“You must be," said the Cat, or you wouldn't have come here.” Lewis Carroll

I'm glad you modified your post, it removed a level of cynicism I didn't account you for.

... that the 2nd Article submitted to CP was just a collection of jokes?
Proof[^]
I was searching for an old message when I stumbled upon it, 'twas linked from an old Lounge post.

That does not qualify as an article, we should report the article and the author

He is younger than me!

Reportedly found dead in his apartment this morning, some overdose speculation.
Doesn't seem to be any confirmation he is dead yet, news sites just picking it up, some still suggesting May be latest death hoax.

Because you haven't added them yet? The Botham heart attack was inspired.
If it's real, a pity, he was a decent actor.

So don't throw a pick in your arm and you should last longer than he did...

I want to ask everyone on codeproject is Indian Forum the only place to ask questions for Indians on ASP.Net.Why I am asking this please refer to the solution posted by Mr. OriginalGriff to my query here is the link
http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/719809/ASP-Net-Best-Practices

1. Don't call him Mr. - he may pick you to the bones...
2. No, however in your case it was a thinkable solution - I'm sure you noticed that he offered this as an option. Also you have all the right to NOT accept, even down-vote. Believe or not OG is a harmless person if gets his raw-met-of-lambs in time...
3. Bonus - Useful Reference Books[^]
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

1) Oh I thought "Mr." is a decent way of addressing someone and by the way I have not offended anyone that someone will pick me to bones.
2)"In my case" I was just asking for asp.net best practices book based on readers experiences as googling gave me so many results.But how does it matter if I belong to India or some other country? I never mentioned I have problem reading books written in English language.
3)Thankyou for the bonus links.

Interesting, someone asked something similar earlier today and this was my response to him.
If you are not a native speaker, and you don't possess at least quasi-western social attitude, Code Project is not the best place for you. That is how it is, it's a site run out of Canada catering towards American and Canadian developers primarily (and to a lesser degree European and Australian devs too).
The General Indian Topics forum exists not because it's a place for Indian devs to socialize but so that Indian devs who don't fit the above characteristics can stay off the Lounge and the Soapbox.
I am not trying to scare you away, just trying to be honest about how it is. There are plenty of Indian developer sites run by Indians - so you should be able to easily find alternatives.

Is this something written by your own? You mean to say being an Indian I have no right to ask a quesion other than in Indian Forum?You mean to say Indians dont have the knowledge to ask question openly. They should only interact in Indian forums? And sharing knowledge depends upon which country I belong to? Your response was not good enough.

That is not what Nishant wrote. You may notice that Nish is Indian himself. What he was pointing out is that oftentimes Indian contributors get a tougher ride because western attitudes jar with them. If you ask a good question, and show that you have tried then that is all that matters.

I noticed that his response was not good enough.

Whose response? Please try to be more specific.
|
|
|
|
|

In what way was it not good enough?
|

Thanks Pete. Apparently my original response was not clear enough, based on some of the replies I got.
|
|
|
|
|
It seemed perfectly clear to me. Perhaps I just get you.
