Oh, we still talk and chit chat, but when someone's wanting to get work done, and has their headphones on, we tend to not bother each other. Granted, the no bother policy only applies to questions that can be answered quickly or the information is on the web (What's the command to do foo? Where's foo?), things that take 10 seconds to ask the guy next to you, but take 30 seconds to look up online. For things such as program design, we still will sit down and interrupt work to have a 15 minute discussion. -- Josh McFarlane "Peace cannot be kept by force.
