    Got proof of that? I'd guess not since you're posting as anon coward.

    This is stupid, I'm posting under my username but I'm still anonymous. I see people post this shit all the time, do you not realize that most likely the person's username is not their real name?

    Please see my other post about Teamviewer, it uses vnc and is simple to use. It doesn't even need torun all the time.

    That's too bad that he's restricted himself so much, because Teamviewer works great for all my computer challenged friends. It doesn't even have to be installed. There is a run only option in the installer.

    The problem is not people who dont have children paying taxes that fund public education the problem is people that do have children get tax breaks they are the ones skimping on paying for public education. My taxes should help fund public education but the people who actually have children in public schools shouldn't get tax breaks.

    The problem is that people who have kids get tax breaks, Im fine with my taxes being used to fund public education but people who actually are using that public education shouldn't get a tax break.

    My neighbors could do these things but they dont. Just like most people got to the store to buy beer and cigarettes most would go to the store to buy weed.

    Another plus I just thought of for the credit union. When I deposit my check at 5 PM on Friday the funds are immediately available. The last bank I used the funds were not available until Tuesday.

    The fees they charge are much better than the fees charged by banks. I believe my credit union charges a $20 overdraft fee while my previous bank charged $35.

    That's the point I was trying to make when i typed, "I definitely wouldn't call it just for an edge case (may or not be a word)." I was just pointing out that coldwetdog is very likely a dickhead. Also there is a good market repairing iPhones, if mine broke I would fix it, a coworker fixed his wife's phone just the other day and my former boss replaced broken screens on his iPhone 4 times. (He likes his drink)

    Lower interest rates don't contribute to the local economy? Why anyone would use a bank over a credit union is beyond me.
