Busier than a busy thing

This week has been crazy on a secret site that is being launched next week. 3 hours sleep has become the norm, and caffeine is my friend.

And it's the most fun I've had programming under pressure since debugging on the bridge of a $100,000/day survey vessel while Piper Alpha burned and everyone was willing my fingers to type faster.

So when I hit a roadblock in the early hours of the morning it got frustrating; the web.config inheritance problem where all my very simple vdirs were being screwed by the very complicated root web.config.

But Terri came to the rescue while I went onto other tasks - she found Steve Smith's blog post HttpModule Breaks Sub-Applications Problem Solved. Thanks guys, perfect timing.

They even had computers in '88? Or were you debugging punch cards... that would've been sweet. :) *ducks*

It was a 9000 series HP, very fancy for the time. :)
