    Magic words.

    What if someone under 18 pushes OK? Does it still stick?

    XP service pack 1 was a doozy, but you have to have it for security reasons. It's blackmail. Maybe Wally World will court test them on this if they try to pull the K-mart thing on them. They are the only ones with more money.

    Made in China. Work at WalMart. Eat at Burger King. Life for everyone in 2004.

  5. It's about time! on Telcos Play Both Sides of Telemarketing War · · Score: 1

    It's about time that the word is spread on this. Caller ID, what B.S. They sell the tele-marketers ways to get around it and ways to un-block a blocked call. This is escalating to a point where something must be done. I hate Verizon.

    --*Technically incorrect, but the Glouscter Meteor was really no match for the 262 performance-wise.--

    Actually, I think the Meteor had a more reliable engine, but the air frame of the 262 was superior.

    You gotta have something that works in many conditions. I just seems like the power level of the laser would have to be very powerful indeed to penetrate bad weather.

    Those V2's would still be hard to stop today. If we build lasers someone else eventually will too, but if we don't someone else might. Tough question.

    --Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld "is hot on ... the notion of zapping people," Pike said. "Lasers are in line with Rumsfeld's idea of transforming the military, which is to come up with wonder-weapons that other countries can't emulate." --

    No.

    The rest sounded pretty scary too. "Wonder Weapons". That's what the Nazi's had, wasn't it?

    Come here. The building boom is on. I will have to agree when the boomers downsize that might create a temporary glut. We'll gen X_ers' have more kids.

    Maybe in your local area. I was talking about the US as a whole.

    Of course the price will go down is some places such as government projects.

    Like I said they are not making any more land but there sure as hell are more people being made.

    --if you bought a house in the last 2 years, you're going to look worse than this guy after the bubble bursts in the housing market.--

    No way man. There has only been one year in which property value did not increase overall in the US and that was during the Great Depression.

    Much safer than stocks. Population increases, land doesn't, it's not rocket science.

    That fits my description and then some, but I don't consider myself a sysadmin. Sure I keep the machines running, but if I need help, it's subbed.

    I do CAD work (draw homes), I do sales, I do adverts, volenteer work etc., etc. whatever I am capable of doing. That's the way it is in a small outfit.
    8 clients, 1 NT server. Nothing to it. Even a web site.

    Please don't white glove me for spelling, I'm very tired and lazy today.
