How do you get 4500 spam emails when any spam older than 30 days is deleted automatically? Or are you a spam magnet? By the way, Trash is counted as well so clean it out sometimes...
In my case my wife will get 80% of my Austrian pension as long as she lives and will get all still available from my superannuation from Australia, as well as her part of super (and the other way round as well if she dies before me).
Well, you were a lot more advanced than me, I used tilted lines (2 or 3 together), which did the same trick, on the carddecks for our Uni's IBM360/44... 1971, happy memories...
You've got many more other dates which wouldn't be a problem, like 1st January, 2nd February... and you could still have one print run and one release date. Bingo!
Huge leap in 1971 to an IBM System 3/Model 10, one if the first mid-range computers, still RPGII, but used the 98-hole square punch cards with the round holes (still have a couple of cartons of these).
Only with a direct transfer you can always follow the money trail to the other account and, as long as you haven't signed an authority to deduct, the bank may not allow somebody to access your account this way.
In Europe companies print their bank connection (bank and account number) on their invoices and I never heard about any problems with that.
I'm now working 30 years as an Analyst/Programmer and was ALWAYS interviewed by the IT-Manager when I was looking for a contract.
The HR department was never involved.
I think one of the main problems is that the IT-Management has (by default or design) left the hiring of programmers to HR instead of selecting the best person for the job and then telling HR what to do.
First to the whole Fair Tax discussion: OK, let's go back to barter, no money changes hands, so no tax will be paid, everybody will get his/her monthly refund (from where?).
Second: The principle of VAT (Value added Tax) is that only the added value in each step (production, distribution, sale) is taxed. Only the last sale to the consumer includes the whole xx% of VAT, all other steps get the tax they paid on their inputs (what they buy from other companies) back [by deducting the amount they have paid in taxes from the amount they have charged on their sales].
With 30 years of experience in IT in Europe and Australia I fully support the parent.
I have more than 95% of my time worked as a contractor in many different areas, but always including analysis and programming (new and maintenance) as well as keeping applications running all the time.
When you have a lot of experience you can apply a (reasonable) amount of it to a new problem and make it much easier to find a stable solution.
In that case one of the most important things to know is how to NOT do it.
Even better is a cordless digital phone with a headset. This makes it possible to talk from up to 100 meters from your 'office'. Uniden make some good ones.
The name of the lake is Toeplitz See in Austria (that oe should be an umlaut, i.e. two dots above the o). I have been at the lake in the 60's before the money has been lifted and already then there were many stories about it going around. The lake lies very beautiful in a mountain region in a deep cut valley and is very deep (was cut by glaciers in the last ice-age).
I converted a Rover 3.5L V8 in 1978 to LPG and could switch between petrol and LPG anytime. This was in Austria (Vienna) and the price of LPG was always half of the price of petrol (no or low tax).
Now i'm driving in Australia and you can buy the most popular large cars (Ford Falcon and Holden Commodore) ex factory with a dual fuel system for a very modest additional payment. Most petrol stations have a filling point for LPG.
LPG is only cheaper than petrol if you travel about 20.000 km per year and it works better with powerful cars, because you loose about 10 percent of grunt.

Just an old fart

I've seen a shorter, but in the main issues same, version of this already 25 years ago as badly copied drawings.
You've met one just now.
I'm 57 and working in IT since 1970 as a contractor (only 5 years of these in fixed employment, when the kids were young).
I'm not worn out and still earn good money (there are still legacy systems around), so i can't complain.

IBM 360/20 in 1970, language was RPG.
Huge leap in 1971 to an IBM System 3/Model 10, one if the first mid-range computers, still RPGII, but used the 98-hole square punch cards with the round holes (still have a couple of cartons of these).
Then HP3000, IBM 8100, PC's, lots of languages...
What a ride !

We have left the original factory message without a name on our answering machine. No problem.

Having fun and starting a new contact on Monday!
