in thread A quiet place to code...

"Lately I've ben trying to ignore the people behind me until I am spoken too..."

Oh man, that's the worst! When you get that strange feeling that someone is staring at your back, and then you say, "Is anyone in here?" (because you are too lazy to turn around), and someone says, "Oh, yes" and you respond in your snottiest voice possible, "You're still here?" and they *still* don't get the hint. BTW, I don't do this to everyone, just the senseless one's who can't pick up a hint the first time around.

    One way to solve the people sneaking up on you is what my Honours supervisor has, which is a convex mirror on top of his monitor so he can easily see anyone that walks into his office.

    Cheers!

        Well, untill then go to Think Geek and pick up the C.H.I.M.P, It's worth it, trust me!

        How about a webcam which performs image recognition and when it recognises an unauthorised person entering your cubicle it initiates the, uh, defensive measures. (Which includes calling the fire department to put out the fire...)
