    Interesting, I thought medical studies show that Deja Vu was something similar that happened in the past.
    Not the most credible source.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9j%C3%A0_vu

    In my experiences of Deja Vu I tend to get tunnel vision, in that my eyesight gets blurry everyone but where my center iris is focused. I also get a sense of fight/flight coursing through my body as my brain tries to interpret what is going on and recalls anything that may have happened previously. In some cases I find that there was a decision I made that was similar to the situation that turned out good or turned out bad, and thus I made my decisions accordingly. In other Deja Vu situations, it was just a snapshot occurance.
    In either case, I found no supporting information for your synopsis and wish for citation.

    Most incompetent idiots on the planet. You cant even talk to any admins/engineers. We had problems with the SQL server being slow.
    Had no conformation from anyone. The only thing the tech support did was made sure it was up and that was it. Once that was done, they said "its up" and nothing else.
    Suddenly it would be back to normal
    Other problems experienced were similar to the above experience.
    If you cant get an admin or anyone with knowledge on the phone, ditch em. Getting the run around or support loop from a company is a deciding factor for me.
    Too bad for them Im smart enough to know whats going on and in charge of my purchases.

    I actually recommend godaddy.com right now. Technical, smart people answer the phone. I was even inexperienced with SSLs and they helped me out with applying an SSL to my own site locally hosted.
    Of course I could have looked it up but they were willing to spend the time with me. Also, their call center is located in the Arizona, thats right... the USA.

    Yup, we all do stupid things. Lose our car keys, forget to lock up our guns, dont wear a condom...

    Oh, but when it comes to a cop, they better be more than perfect.

    Just the other day a 3 year old shot themselves while attempting to get a gun from under their grandmothers couch.
    So... yeah. If anything this just shows they need better weapons handling training. What? You think this was the first time someone did something stupid with a gun?

    That is BS and you know it.
    The user installed the virus into their system by doing something stupid.
    Its like blaming the US Government for letting businesses go over sea when you still shop at Walmart.

    That is a corner I would not like to be put into.
    You can explain the situation all you want to the people, but there are people who always side with the family.
    Best I could do with that is "okay, give me the Windows CD and the key it comes with and Ill fix it", when they cant produce it, they shut up.
