A friend was with the PA Dept of Insurance many yrs ago. They barred Bankers Life from doing business in the state. Bankers used to deny a life claim on debit life policies (weekly payment of 5 cents) if a payment wasn't made. Even though payments were accepted for years after the skipped payment. At the end of his life, JD was slapped with a 25 million tortious interference judgement in an auto accident case against his construction company. He did have a soft spot for miniature poodles though. He gave away a set of restaurant furniture from his bowling alley to a lady who had a poodle like his. She was my neighbor and owned an alley in Delray Beach.

Maybe. If I put your email address on my spam, it would come back as good if someone queried your mail server. Your mail server would have to keep track of what it sent in order to validate properly.
Wouldn't it be nice if one of these big philanthopists had not been a nasty evil old man who wanted to make up for his life taking advantage of others?
Actually the Lowe Foundation is an example of one of the good guys' legacies. But John D MacArthur was a real character, the stories abound. I only heard one good one to three bad ones. And I do mean bad.
What happens when you want to listen to the forty to sixty foot waves from the pipes? Weenie little guitars and drums, you can amplify 'em but you can't take them home like a gut fluttering low cycle boom at the threshold of hearing.
Same as the film or digital camera question. Film has a finite resolution, so does tape, so does your memory of the event. Lots of Cinematographers said that film was the ultimate medium until someone pointed out the fact to them. Now NOBODY is stupid enough to say it a second time!
it was amply evident that apple would be the platform. because it was the happening place for postscript and layout, which meant images. images mean film and film for print means thirty to one hundred fifty meg image files. so therefore afterward and henceforth, itty bitty image processing was a done deal and export of EDLs was the trick to bring the entertainment industry onboard. was commodore going down the commode about then or did you figure that play would do their own?? onboard scsi always did rock out like wesley willis.
go to a shop that caters to engineers that has some big HP printers. they will come out under the print shops and the mac snobs I got a ten foot by 3 ft on canvas for under 100 bucks although the ink was not archival
First, the use of Acrobat files should be discouraged in most cases due to readability issues. Second, this really does demonstrate the fact that Joe User likes his Word. Third, a couple of guys asked about making PDFs w/o Acrobat on the desktop. - Adobe used to have a page where you could make them for free on their website.
OR - you could get a Mac where any print job can be directed as Acrobat output if you like to torture others gratuitously - I like to make mine out of a plain text editor or BBEdit Lite. Muah ha ha - Yo ho ho and a bottle of Trolls. Bloody Jack's sig.
The first remote I remember was a pneumatic one that had a fish tank type of hose attached to it. It was not wireless by any means. You had to give it a hearty squeeze and it would advance only one channel at a time, of course.
WOW! So sorry anybody had to go through that crap.
I have had Wang, IBM, Amiga, 6 generic PCs, finally a couple of Apple machines, a G4 laptop, a G3 laptop, finally 25 DV iMacs last year and now 8 G4 duals and 17 iMacs (classroom.) The odd bad motherboard or bad stick of ram from time to time.
It's so cool to yell at the kids,"Don't you EVER reboot without asking first!"
I quit reading most of it many years ago for this very reason. However, Cory Doctorow's Disney story gives me hope. Science Fiction is a normal story placed in a setting where science that the author believes may be possible is present. Of course, physicists have squashed the worm hole as time machine idea, but it's a pretty fine distinction.
The public gets what it wants, whether it is a recognizable genre or something new. Just make sure you don't read spam or crappy SciFi.

How can this help with so many pink contracts?
Look at Bellsouth and OptIn.com for heaven's sake!

Especially experimental vehicles.
You! A Troll! It makes my day.
Does this mean release the floodgates of Trolldom or loose the hounds of hell or something?

How does an instrument that collects a small and distorted amount of information get "dithered up" into high granularity input?
One of my students posed an interesting question today. Could I play a swing beat using just eighth notes.
Try that with your computer.
It was evidently a part of somebody's required exercise to get into New England Conservatory.
They did a music track with a lot less than 2000 edits. Probably more like 10.
Just think how much *better* they would have been if they could have had thousands of edits and weeks to make their tracks stale. UCK!
No, you paid me for knowing when to push it.
Was that from "Bored of the Rings" ??? back in the 60's??
I used to have a copy and wish I had never tossed it.
Crispness is sometimes the description given to stuff that has no resonance or harmonics evident.
Just because people have been trained to listen to compressed music doesn't make it good.
Just like software that trains you to reboot once a day.

cognitive neuro-physiologist? considering that is what he is talking about rather than marriage problems?
hmmmm... a psychologist doing scientific observations of some kind. shouldn't he be reporting on the mating habits of the win-dodo or something?

... so an install of 9 is just OS9 and Classic is a shell.
I gave up OS9 for Lent last year. Now my machine is twenty pounds lighter and can do a four min. mile!
Thanks. Finally a sane response.
Baird got the idea about alternating scan lines. This was the real advance although it needed the axle to connect source and destination. ;-)
Sending the scan lines electronically was derivitave. Boooo! Hisssss!
Mommy, does that make me a troll?
