So you're in good company, Jim. Well, there are now 2 other people with the badge, Gamecat and Mghie, both of whom are really smart guys that know what they’re talking about.

Stack Overflow has some great visibility, and there are a number of questions about <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/751993/what-language-do-i-use-for-my-project" rel="nofollow">which language to use</a> for various projects, which means people on Stack Overflow are comparing languages, which is exactly the time we want them to see a strong Delphi showing. @Alister I think that is a great idea.

I initially thought I was being unhelpful - however many have emailed me back letting me know that their question was solved - which is pretty cool. I wonder if everyone should ask their questions on StackOverflow as it will increase Delphi's profile in the programming community (rather than asking them on an obscure newsgroup).
