The danger is intercepting that fax and then having the bad guys take the signature and other important bits for future nefarious acts, like applying for a home equity loan on your behalf.
But the faxed signature will be of such poor quality that they'd probably have better luck just writing some random squiggles.
I will sound a lot like a "tourist" if I use it when describing UK job applications, which was the subject of my post, given that we don't have resumes here.
What do you do when the employer reference given says, "what?? That asshole is looking for another job? Thanks for calling, I'm going to start looking for his replacement immediately. By the way, don't hire him."
That's why giving references sucks, you can get your ass fired at your old job which isn't usually a good idea.
References are also very important here (and probably there as well). Generally employers want to talk to previous employers.
Heh, that's interesting. In the UK, it's almost the opposite; an employer judges you based on CV, interview, previous work, and maybe qualifications; often, references aren't even followed up on, or they are checked after the job is offered to make sure you're not hiding some catastrophic thing. I think this is more sensible, too. A previous employer's reference is pretty worthless; they might make up nasty stuff because they didn't like you leaving, or make up good stuff to get you off their hands if they think you're crap.
Power: Pretty powerful, unless you want to tinker with an OS kernel or something. Performance: Very good, even for a garbage collected language. Ease of development: Very easy, if you have a decent IDE.
Only In America(tm) could someone who is 46 be described as doing something at 'such a young age'. Sorry, but in the rest of the world, that's plenty mature. Why do you think it isn't? Frankly, in the UK, that's verging on 'too old'.
Amtrak is probably the best example of an inefficient poorly run organization that you can find. They continue to receive government funding and bailouts even they have no plan to ween themselves off of government funding they have been receiving since the 70s.
Uhm, why the fuck should they? They're a public service. If you want a decent train service, it probably needs to be paid for by government or at least heavily subsidized, because there is NOT a market solution to every problem.
Furthermore, even with the all of the government funding that they have received over the years their service is HORRENDOUS
Then govenment should be getting more involved and sort the fuckers out. Blame government, not Amtrak; Amtrak seems to be a whipping boy here.
If I were you Americans, I'd just vote for a candidate who doesn't have a very real chance of dying from a heart attack owing to old age half way through his presidency.
So could you solve a puzzle for me? Why do Americans tend not to pronounce the 'h' in 'herb', yet they do in most other words that begin with 'h'? That bugs me. It's actually harder to say 'erb' than 'herb'.
Bah, they ignored my input about having an opt-out in upgrade dialogs. It's the only app I know that suddenly says, "time to upgrade! Now, or very soon???" How about, fuck no, I'm happy with this version and don't want to risk instability with a beta upgrade. And they want to make it even stupider, by upgrading you then saying "you've been upgraded, have a nice day!"
And yes I know you can uncheck the auto-upgrade box in options; but you should have an opt-out by default. Forcing upgrades on people is arrogant.
Also nanotechnology, and very toxic substances. Imagine if the 9/11 guys had managed to inject a large dose of ricin into the twin towers' ventilation system.

Caller ID?
The constitution grants the Federal government no right to enact such legislation.

Don't you mean illegal prohibition against marijuana?

They don't cut the potatoes up. They mash them and then make the Pringles out of that. :-P
Voice acting??? I think you may be remembering something else. The original Prince of Persia used Adlib or CMS, music only, no voice.
'We're starting afresh, in the same universe, and we wanted to bring something new [...] based on [...] the battle between light and darkness.'
Yawn.
Heh. Funny where those priorities are. Sex is obscene, but by that definition, torture followed by bloody beheading would be just fine.

How many libraries of congress could you hold on that?
Is voting for your own race necessarily racist?
Of course it is! How dare you ask such a question? I am no racist, and therefore I will NEVER be voting for any white candidate.
McCain doesn't need to spend money on a Halloween mask - he just smiles when they open the door.
LOL.

I don't think too many people really liked Gore
What? Gore would've made an excellent president, and I think most people on here would agree.
