    Who cares about credit rating, just get any future loans from a legitimate bank. Not one that associates with scammers and criminals.

    What site can't Firefox display?

    Apart from myspace profiles, but those are in a special league of bad coding.

    It's getting rarer these days, but there are still a**holes that code things that will only work in IE.

    Fortunately there is never a need to deal with those sites.

    Unless you enjoy looking at children's geocities pages.

    I suggest buying a decent router, any good router will allow you to access it via http making it 100% platform independent.

    Americans get shit service on everything.

    I don't understand why people complain about phone service over here, at least we have service. Much of America is still on landlines and probably still using rotary telephones.

    You can always ask the provider of your smtp service to open another port. This gets around the port block.

    Governments attack their people because that is the will of the corporations that put them in power.

    I agree, something that really pisses me off is people who use torches outside at night.

    A few weeks ago me and some mates took a shortcut through the cemetery, the place is huge so it makes allot more sense to walk through than to walk a few miles around the outside. Some of my mates kept using small key ring torches of course they ignore my advice that it is better to simply not use them, like all humans they ignore logic and a few of them managed to walk into low hung tree branches, trip on solid objects and a variety of other things. I walked about 100meters ahead of them and could see as clear as day the whole way through without injuring myself.
