    Not only that but they haven't a clue about how to use frames. Check out the "skillful" use of targets when you keep selecting the 'Contacts' page and the company URL that is located/linked on it without navigating your "back" button.

    Railroad tracks? Ha! :-) In this area, no one cares about it being too close to a train! *Any* land is worth a ton! At the end of Willow Road in Menlo Park- next to the RR tracks- is an exclusive new townhome development. $350K gets you a shoebox 1200 sq ft home. $700k gets you a bit more room. Complete with CalTrain commute noise.

    Well, the 415 area code was valid for Mountain View until the Peninsula split off into a 650 area code. And as it is a 948 prefix, it corresponds with Mt. View numbers. Since you work in Mt. View, leave out the area code. He has a bunch of domains listed, so the whois info has probably never been updated.

    actually I think the faux pas occurred because the article ein preceded Berliner in JFK's sentence. If he had left it out, (Ich bin Berliner), he would have been ok. Feel free to correct me, real speakers of German! :-)

  10. Re:Bay Area Bigots on Red Hat West Coast Division? · · Score: 1

    The Bay Area isn't Silicon Valley by a long shot. In fact, that seething morass to the south is kind of an embarassment to the rest of us.

    And you probably weren't even born in the Bay Area at all. That "embarassment" is what has consistently greased the wheels of commerce for the BA for the last 25+ years, and has brought the State of California to unprecedented levels of prosperity; reversing the Great Exodus of the early 90s following the deflation of the military industrial economy of the Cold War. Were you here then? I was, and for 30 years before that.

    While "The City" grasps for relevance beyond its obvious superiority in the tourism, restaurant and rave departments by snatching the odd business that doesn't locate south of the Peninsula, the gold coins keep amassing in the coffers of Santa Clara Valley companies.

    Every time they declare the South Bay dead because of the tight housing market (I've heard it my whole adult life), things crank up another notch.

    So you can either take your snobby-assed attitude and park it up your backside, or you can learn to appreciate the engine that is the genesis of your employment.

    So tell me, where does Linus live and work?

    Yes- of course it does- it limits the amount of text you can translate in one pass. If you want to translate large docs, you gotta translate it in pieces.
