[Hey Kids] @@servername and BCP and ultra-long statements.

Hear me now and listen to me later.

When you take that ultra-complex 6000 character string for BCP and wonder why it's getting truncated to 4000 (which SSMS has problems showing anyhow), remember that @@servername is sysname, which is an alias for Nvarchar(256)... and adding it to a varchar converts the whole string to nvarchar. 

I'll never get those hours of my life back.  Be smarter than me.
