4th July Rules!
G'day!
Since the USA is supposed to be on holiday, how about rules for what the rest of us will do today? Suggestions to kick off with. 1. Start off with a rousing chorus of God Save the Queen or whatever National Anthem you prefer as long as it's not Stars and Stripes. 2. All references to Bush and Kerry are banned!! You may however, bore the pants off everyone else by discussions of your country's politics. 3. All are allowed to bitch about the USA centric nature of MS products. (Even the MVP password forgets that there are two hemispheres.) BTW what is the current rate of tax paid on tea? And do you feel as if you are adequately represented? I'm outa here. Fast! Happy Independence Day USA. -- Regards Norman Harker MVP (Excel) Sydney, Australia |

4th July Rules!
Hi Norman
bit bored are we? as its bucketting down over here i'ld like to forget that there's two hemispheres too and have their weather ... seriously, my suggestion for today's topics for us from down-under, at least, is "Do we need an inderpendance day too?" (variation of the monarch vs republic debate) Happy 4th July - USA! Cheers JulieD "Norman Harker" wrote in message ... G'day!

If you're not yet bored enough, how 'bout a nice textual comparison of the
US Constitution, with or without amendments, to the proposed EU one. FTHOI, http://www.house.gov/Constitution/Constitution.html and http://europa.eu.int/futurum/documen...80604_2_en.pdf Speaking purely from my own peculiar biases, beware of fundamental laws that require tables of contents. |

Hi Harlan!
I much prefer the USA one. But you can keep the second amendment. But the British Constitution has stood the test of time; there isn't one! Not much to complain about with Excel though apart from those date issues that come through VBA. Happy Independence Day to you and yours. -- Regards Norman Harker MVP (Excel) Sydney, Australia |

It's very hard for Brits to ignore the USA especially when Bliar begins all
his speeches with, "My fellow Americans". -- Regards Andy Wiggins www.BygSoftware.com Home of "Save and BackUp", "The Excel Auditor" and "Byg Tools for VBA" "Norman Harker" wrote in message ...

And of course the C in temperature really stands for Celsius (I believe many
people think it stands for Centigrade) who was Swedish Anders Celsius original thermometer had 0 for boiling and 100 for freezing, I believe Linné (or using the latin version which is used in some countries: Linnaeus) ordered the first thermometer that reversed it to 0 freezing and 100 boiling -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom (No private emails please, for everyone's benefit keep the discussion in the newsgroup/forum) "Norman Harker" wrote in message ... Hi Don! Remarkably mild Winter here with a high of 23 C today; 73 F in your money; that's =CONVERT(23,"C","F") Would expect Texans to drink tea; you weren't a British colony and hence drink a poor imitation of Single Malt. -- Regards Norman Harker MVP (Excel) Sydney, Australia |

Yes but look where it gets us, the most secretive 'democratic' society, and
the most introspective, jingoistic to boot. Nothing to commend itself here as far as I can see. Bob "Norman Harker" wrote in message ... Hi Harlan! I much prefer the USA one.
