  1. Re:Coffee shop distro on Wireless APs in Homebrew Coffee Shops? · · Score: 1

    Wow. Let the hate roll. According to your logic the massive cost and unreliability of ms windoze will make it unappealing to the average user also. So why should anyone bother to do anything because it is all too hard....

  2. More information about companies checking credit on Dealing with Employers Who Perform Credit Checks? · · Score: 1

    I recently heard on NPR about more and more companies doing the sme thing. More information can be found here. I seem to remember that it was against the law for a company to deny emplyment soley on the bais of ones credit history.

  3. Re:Have you considered?... on Alternative-Fuel Vehicle Recommendations? · · Score: 1

    I own one the of the Honda Civic Hybirds and think it is outclasses the Toyota car by a long shot. I drive 80 miles one-way to work each day over some very hilly county (one hill is a 5% grade for 2 miles) and it gets about 41-42 MPG. The VW TDI is advertised with better milage, and if you can get those numbers in real life it would be a better choice. I test drove one for about 75 miles one day and it had a kick, but I did see the fuel guage drop... I drove a motorcycle for 2 years in college and other than people not knowing you are there - even when you are right in front of them - they are great. So if you're ready to put your life in someone else's hands everytime you get on the road, go for it. I did a little research on bio-diesel and it sounds great. You can burn it in a regular diesel car with only minor modifications, but where are you going to buy it? I hope this helps. The best I can say is that I cannot reccomend the Honda Civic Hybird enough

    Well, other than the Incas and Aztec and the Myans and the people of Teotihuacan. They killed thousands at a time. For reason ranging from amusement to pleasing the gods.
