                                            | Don't know if this is of interest to anyone but I just stumbled across http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/order.php which lets you generate dummy data, including names, addresses and much more for a variety of countries in a range of formats including SQL.I've just tried it and it seems quick and useful to me.steve-----------What color do you want that database? |

                                          Cool Q &A in the generated ZIP file of data:Q: Isn't this illegal?A: I really don't see how it could be. If I ask you to make up a random name   and address, is it illegal if you do?Q: Can I use these credit card numbers to buy stuff online?A: No. Its the FAKE name generator, not the real-stolen-credit-card generator.   All the included credit card numbers are completely fake.   |
