Google South Africa's Telephone Number

Are you tired of searching for Google South Africa's contact details? You are pretty sure that their office is on the corner of Main Road and Sloane Street , but more than that, you just don't know. Well, @StewartMoss managed to dig up their telephone number - after first having to call Google UK and Google Kenya! So, directly from the Kenyan horse's mouth, here it is: Google South Africa's telephone number: +27-11-575-6000 Apparently, according to the receptionist, they "don't accept calls." So, there you go.

Thank you for this information and for calling Google UK, Kenya and South Africa Stewart, you rock!

HOWTO: Generate a Random String of Characters in SQL

Here's a stored procedure to generate a string of random characters. This is useful when, for example, one needs to generate a random password. Please excuse the poor formatting, I am working on finding and implementing a decent code formatted for both SQL and C#.
