Thanks Hannibal. CRA likes to keep everything ambivalent for a reason, just so they can change their mind later.

err... letitslidedude... Ka-CHING is not a 'man'...

Which is why what seems important to her (other conditions like the office situation) may matter to her even though they don't to you.

And most important... do you know Frznguru?

VS,

Frznguru lives across the street from me, and SHE and her husband are doing well. If I bump into her, I'll send your regards. Wink

That's what happens when you don't go back to page one and read the original post. It is hard enough keeping the regular posters straight without remembering those from a year or two ago - especially when their screen name doesn't make it obvious. (gee... aren't all gurus men? Cool) Women posters are a minority here...

Thanks for the update! This confirms much of what I heard at the conference.

I agree, Vs, women posters are a minority here, but are a majority in the quantity of words used in each post �.. also it seems they are a majority on the number of words they speak and write per minute ..� I have heard that women speak faster than men - 300 words per minute versus 125 for typical men. It seems to me the cause for this is that the �talk area� of the brain are larger in women than in men. Laughing

BTW, Dmb has tried to break the above record in writing faster than women, but unfortunately, he failed in several occasions. Laughing

So 007... from what I have seen of your posts, I can only assume that you are a woman.

... and haven't been paying much attention here as the vast majority of long long rants are always males.

This is what I'd deduced too...guys talk about women prattling on ad infinitum, but in my experience (as a guy), I'm ashamed to say that guys are just as prone to that- and more.

I guess that for me at least, 007 adds a kind of amusement factor to the end of a long, hard day at work. He's off the richter scale as far as 'sanity' goes, and I like a bit of surrealism to temper a plebian (though sometimes surreal) working day.

Interesting how this thread is beginning to lose its thread a bit.

I'm interested in hearing more about the compounds. Apart from the parties, what do they have e.g. swimming pools, other facilitites...

I would also like to know about the pros and cons of being a Canadian resident or non-resident while at CNA-Q.

Did you apply online or at a conference in person?
