I can't help but think of the opening chapter of Stranger in a Strange Land where they try to find the most compatible crew possible. Good luck with that guys.
Hint: Foot-kilograms is not a unit of measure for crew compatibility.
The Wizards of the Coast forums are a good place to start. They have a section dedicated to Looking for Group. They also have links to some affiliated sites. I'm at work or I'd provide links. I'll reply back to this with some good ones when I get home.
I concur. They have taken the core D&D concepts, a copy of WoW; thrown it in the food processor and then homogenized the whole mess. Eliminating Greyhawk as the default setting should be a good indicator of their mindset. They want to make a brainless game to lure in the MMO players. (Don't jump on me. I played WoW for 2 years. It was fun but its not pen & paper gaming.) If they can chisel of some of that 10 million player WoW goodness they see it as a fair trade for shitting on their product.
My group will be staying with 3.5 despite its shortcomings. My hope is that 4th Ed. is to Wizards of the Coast what Vista is to Microsoft.
businesses shouldn't google potential employees because it is such a red herring to see what someone does outside of work. So he doesn't speak in complete sentences, wear a suit and act superpolite when he's not being interviewed. So what? Everyone is going to try and make a good impression and everyone is going to not be in interview mode their whole life. I would disagree. We hired a girl for our department (I can hear here spouting stupid right now) and she interviewed very well. I wish I had searched for her on Google so I could have seen how batshit insane she is. She kept it quiet until the probation period was over.
Agreed. I have 3 first names and a google search on me gets you squat. Searching on your email address or user name (if you use the same on multiple places) is something to worry about. I do alot of back tracking on our service users for use violations and the email address is golden.
Stealing from the RIAA is the best way for the consumer to negotiate prices. The "value" placed on so called entertainment is vastly out sync with what we actually get. Maybe you aren't old enough to recall when CD's cost $20-25 (in 1990 dollars. I'll be happy to buy from iTunes or whatever once the price is reasonable inline with the value derived from the content. You example of 10 cents is about right.
Violence has resolved more problems over the years than any other system available to man. But please, I'm sure the dodo bird would be glad to listen to your ideas.
Newsflash: Binghamton is downstate. You've bought into the NYC propaganda. Upstate is north of Albany and East of Rochester.
As for Bruno, he uses his leadership to gerrymander the districts. Once he's gone you watch, the districts will be redrawn in such a way that Republicans in New York state might as well not show up. To use your phrase that is.
Well, it does "work". Our development group tweaked our site, made it compatible and tested it.
But we've had so few Firefox users I have my doubts. There are probably glitches out there we haven't found yet because it doesn't get the thourough tire kicking that IE users give it.
My experience doesn't bear that out. (Sadly) Our company's website gets about 97% IE, 2% FF, 1% Safari. (We aren't Opera comaptible and I've never seen a Netscape hit)
Our clients comprise most of the top retailers and CPG manufacturers in the US, so I feel thats a pretty good look into the corporate worlds acceptance of alternatives to IE. (Most of the non-IE users are from Creative Departments using Macs.)

Yes, I use this ID for most things and places that won't take the underscore always piss me off. I decided not to sign up for StumbleOn because of it.

I just threw up. You need medication.
Nice Straw man, really.

Until then I pirate.

Seen him. Kind of short, but gives a hell of lecture.
It makes perfect sense. Comparing salaries only leads to bad feelings between co-workers.
Through unoffical channels I know I make almost as much as my supervisor and that my bonus this year was larger.
Why? Who knows. She complains about everything and is fights every change. I always do whatever I can to help other departments.
Talking to yourself? You may want to get some counseling.
I thought this was a story about a secret episode of Lost. Damn you Abrams and your viral marketing.
I'm sure the conservative bloggers will be lining up to be a union run be nut root liberals.

So if every "Crisis" is a Business Oppurtunity then why do I feel like DC Comics is screwing me over every few years.

I say sad because I prefer Firefox over IE. Its what I use at home and on my personal laptop. I would love for more people and companies to Firefox.
