For once I get to out-Raymond
Raymond and post something from the way-back
machine. I'm not sure what it is with Microsoft employees and milk, but here's
another bug report from Excel from 1994 that I saved because it was funny.
Aliases removed because a surprising number of them still seem to be around.
(The T: indicates the person was a tester, I believe, while D: was for developer
and P: was for program manager.)

: Go to the kitchen
: Grab a Darigold chocolate milk carton
: Read the ingredients list
--! Either Darigold has discovered a chocolate cow, or something's missing
from the ingredients list. It only lists milk, vitamin A, and vitamin D. So
where does the chocolate/sugar flavor come from?
-------------------- ACTIVE - 05/12/94 - T:XXXXXX -----------------------
Moo info:
: Grab a Darigold 2% milk carton (NOT chocolate)
: Read the ingredients
--! Says it contains Cocoa, Sugar, Guar gum... Looks like the Chocolate and
2% ingredient lists have been swapped.

looks like an internals problem?

UI Problem. I'll take it.

They don't make milk at the Issaquah Darigold. Calling Ranier Ave.

I can't repro. Do you have the wrong MILKINTL.DLL?

By design? I think new US health labeling went in to effect this month.

Wrong Department. Transferred from Distribution to Production. Left voicemail
for "Frank".

Reproduces in the Development Kitchen. Need a native build of the Kitchen...

This is a feature. IntelliSense labeling knew that you didn't want to feel
guilty about the chocolate in the milk, so it didn't list it on the box.

Recommend postpone. Reading the ingredients is not a common user scenario.
--------------- ASSIGNED to EXCEL - 05/12/94 - D:XXXXX ------------------
By Design. However, there's another bug that should be entered:
They got the calories correct on the chocolate milk (190). I still feel guilty.

I think postpone for after mac release. Also keep the buggy samples fully intact
with debug symbols and map file till this one gets reactivated for the next
release.

Please make sure a copy of the above is stored on \\cashcow for future
reference.
--------------- RESOLVED - WON'T FIX - 05/12/94 - P:XXXXX ---------------
Fixing the package is just a band-aid. We need to come up with a solution that
addresses the real problem in 96. My recommendation is chocolate cows.
Please close and assign to DARIGOLD.
