Hurray! What a great way to start the new year. I got an email this morning informing me I've been awarded the MVP award for the fifth year running.

Congratulations! We are pleased to present you with the 2008 Microsoft MVP Award! The MVP Award is our way of saying thank you for promoting the spirit of community and enhancing people’s lives and the industry’s success every day. Your extraordinary efforts in Visual Developer - Visual C# technical communities during the past year are greatly appreciated.

Thanks to Microsoft, and in particular Rafael Munoz, for the award. Excellent!
