Storm Chasin' again - No Fluff Just Stuff

Storm Chasin' again

Posted by: Venkat Subramaniam on April 3, 2006

I did it again. Last year was a year chasing storms. Little did I know
when I set out for my trip yesterday. Driving through Tennessee was
quite an experience with heavy rain, tornado warnings, and hail.
Today, it's a different kind of rain, its .NET 2.0 raining, I mean training.
I am teaching selected topics in .NET 2.0. At the end of the day we had
fun with a live debugging session on a current project. They (client) were
having trouble with an ill-behaved 2005 PDA (CE) application communicating
with a 2003 Web Service. Took us an hour to fix the problem - solution,
exactly two lines of code!
