@StefanKottwitz I use breqn allot ! I use it to break all the equations generated by computer algebra systems. But I have many problems with it. I have to limit the size of the equation used, else it will fail with latex exceeded capacity error. I also can't use with tex4ht, it only works with pdflatex and lualatex. I'll buy your book when it comes out in print (do not do ebooks/kindle stuff, do not even know how they work).

@PauloCereda You asked about my TeX-sx business cards:
 
@JosephWright Ooh, rounded corners. Looks quite nice.
 
@Johannes_B They are
@Johannes_B Supplier is moo.com: very good quality, the box they come in not one of the usual tacky plastic things
@Johannes_B Even has dividers so you can keep peoples cards in there
 
@JosephWright Sounds neat :-)
@PaulGessler on german grounds yet? ;-)
 
9:08 AM
@Johannes_B ach ja! Just through border control moments ago.
 
@PaulGessler ausgezeichnet
 
9:50 AM
@PaulGessler welcome :-)
@egreg Out of interest, did you change the wikibook page on titles and removed that damn pdftex option? ;-)
 
Birmingham airport has free wifi: I'll probably get spam mail forever
 
@DavidCarlisle :-)
 
10:13 AM
@DavidCarlisle Just looked at size10.clo and the others. the parindent in onecolumn-mode is 15pt, 17pt and eventually 1.5em for size12.clo. Do you know, why there is this difference? pt vs. em
 
10:26 AM
@JosephWright ooh lovely! :) But I was expecting your duck avatar to make a cameo. :)
@DavidCarlisle When I was in Guarulhos (SP) and Barajas (Madrid), they were advertising free wi-fi, but you had to fill out a form online to have 72 minutes of use, then the additional minutes you had to pay. It was the very same system, so I suspect every major airport has a partnership with this thingy. So it's free but not much. :)
 
@Johannes_B I think it was just that way in the beginning....
@PauloCereda it doesn't say it's timed (but then I didn't read the terms and conditions, I just ticked the box, so who knows:-)
 
@DavidCarlisle ooh so it begins. :)
 
@Johannes_B yes just checked latex 2.09 the values are just copied from there, so you know who to blame.
 
@DavidCarlisle Arrgh! :-)
 
10:43 AM
@Johannes_B doesn't make any difference of course, it is still set to a fixed value it isn't set to a value that depends on the font used in the paragraph.
@Johannes_B 17.62482pt
 
ooh there's a dog with a scarf!
 
11:00 AM
@DavidCarlisle Yeah, i know. I just wondered about it.
 
Hello guys.
 
Strange: in the last two days someone upvoted all my answers which had 9 votes (except one)…
 
@HarishKumar Hi Harish!
 
11:18 AM
Hi @PauloCereda Missed me? ;-)
 
@HarishKumar Of course. :)
 
@PauloCereda I lost track of things here. What is trending at present?
@PauloCereda How are you? and how is every one?
 
@HarishKumar @Joseph and @David breaking the LaTeX kernel, basically. :)
@HarishKumar I am fine, thanks. In a hurry, but fine. :) And you?
 
@PauloCereda Oh they didn't change a bit then! ;-)
 
@PauloCereda they haven't quite the the economics as you suggested, it didn't ask me to pay it just dropped the connection and showed me a spinning disk.... but found another open network....
 
11:21 AM
@PauloCereda: I am fine too. Took time for something else.
@DavidCarlisle Hi David.
 
@HarishKumar too late to try to be polite now!
 
@DavidCarlisle Hehe. I couldn't escape your watchful eyes.
Bye for now. Gotta go.
 
@JosephWright \pushcatcodes/\popcatcodes doesn't seem right name, should probably have table in name somewhere but do you think they should be @ names, don't really want to encourage people changing catcodes mid document... emu-luatexbase makes them available as \BeginCatcodeRegime anyway...

Guys, any hints on why this is not working for me?
\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{array}

\newcolumntype{C}[1]{>{\centering}m{#1}}

\begin{document}

\begin{tabular}{|C{2cm}|C{2cm}|C{2cm}|C{2cm}|C{2cm}|}
%\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline

\end{document}
It appears to have something to do with the \newcolumntype thingy, but I don't know what it is (I borrowed the code from one of Jake's answers).
Oh I had to have \newcolumntype{C}[1]{>{\centering\arraybackslash}m{#1}}.
