Posted by Rob Farley at 11:34 am 05 October 2006Fellow MVP (name dropping)So far, one of the best things about being an MVP is access to the MVP newsgroups, where some of the heroes of SQL hang out. I'm not sure I'll fit in, but it is very flattering to have someone like Adam Machanic blog that I showed him something (of course, I'm sure this is a once-off). Posted by Rob Farley at 5:57 pm 04 October 2006To be colleaguedI think there needs to be a new word in the dictionary, to describe those times when a colleague comes over to your desk and takes time from you. Actually, it might not be a colleague, and they might just take time from you in some other way, like via the telephone or an Instant Messaging system.

I feel honoured to be a part of this crowd, and can't help but think that there are other names that should be there too. Posted by Rob Farley at 5:28 pm Rob Farley - MVPMore letters...

Posted by Rob Farley at 1:18 pm PrimesA challenge is always good. Ward Pond has a way of finding prime numbers.

Just today I used one to generate a bunch of test data. Posted by Rob Farley at 11:26 am
