  1. Re: It's not rude if everyone understands the prot on So Long Voicemail, Give My Regards To the Fax Machine · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Sure, because they cost so much less than voicemail.

    Dinnertime calls ended years ago when Governement passed the Do-not-call list act making it illegal to call people on the official list.

    I don't know what planet you live on, but I've been on the Do-not-call list since inception. Yes, the calls tailed off for a time, but as of late, my phone is ringing off the hook, including dinner time. Repeat callers get reported to the gov site.

    Yes it's true, but why is it that nearly every woman I've spoken with dislikes working with other women?

    "who claims that every single woman"

    No, he didn't make that claim. It's a generalization. A stereotype. And, as with most stereotypes, there's a bit of truth to them, but nobody believes they apply 100%. Why is this not obvious to you???

    Really? It must have been before my time, and I'm in my late 50s.

    Anything that holds a 1 or a 0 would be destroyed.

  11. Don't confuse stupidity with a lack of caring. They probably won't know what they've lost until they can't find it.

  12. They're surviving because the product line is planned several years ahead. Give it a few more.

  13. Ever seen a grain elevator fire?

  14. I was with you in the first part, but you lost me at "WAY, WAY...".

    I get about a hundred emails a day, many with useful information. It's easy for me to search back by name, topic or chronologically, or even follow the flow of the discussion. How much of my time should I devote to transferring this knowledge and what tool(s) would you recommend. I'm stuck using Windows, though most of our systems are *NIX, and I can't transfer mail to them...they belong to customers. As the systems I work on have about a 30+ year history, issues that have popped up on rare occasions cause us to search for old answers. This isn't the only source of info, but it's still an important one.

    No explanation necessary on my part. I'm a pilot and an engineer. Another commercial pilot below called bullshit as well. If you're dumb enough to come up with the bullshit you posted, I'm not going to be bothered to try to educate you.

    Yeah, but if you were on the list, you'd know it. Do you think the people making those lists just put 7B people on them? No, it's more than just a la Kevin Bacon.

    False. Just like any woman who says she'd go to bed with you for a million dollars is a whore. You either have strong moral fiber, or you don't.
