  1. Re:Maybe, but risks offending high paying customer on The Ridiculous Tech Fees You're Still Paying · · Score: 1

    Just added my wife to my Consumer Cellular account. We had been paying 57.00 month for her phone. After adding her to mine, I will be paying about $35 month for both of our phones. Furthermore CC uses the ATT network which has worked flawlessly for us for about 20 years now.

  2. Another story of his. on Science Fiction and Fantasy Author Richard Matheson Dead At 87 · · Score: 1

    He also wrote a story which was made into the movie "Somewhere in time" starring "superman" and Jane Seymore. I loved the movie and then looked up the book.

    Sounds like Psycho-History might be in the making. Now we just have to characterize 7 billion people.

    quote---why do I have to go through turbo-tax and it's like, instead of straight to the government?=---unquote

    This is my opinion exactly. I sent them my return and a check for $24. Why should I double (almost) my outlay so that I can be square with the gov't when I do it for the cost of a 39 cent stamp? When I can efile with the IRS without someone else raking off a few of my dollars in the process, I will use the service, until then the post office gets my trade.

    Just my opinion and my two cents worth.

  5. Re:interesting on Use A Regular Phone For Cellphone Calls · · Score: 1

    I have an SBC DSL line. I have fiber to the curb. When I finally found out I could get DSL, the Phone man run a new pair to the back of my house to the NIC, and installed a circuit card in the pedestal. Later the DSL installer came to the house, ran a CAT-5 cable through my attic and installed the modem in my computer room.

    I think two lines are just a convenience in FTTC areas, otherwise filters are necessary to prevent interference.

  6. Re:The truely funny part of this... on BSA Creates Piracy Statistics · · Score: 1

    This really isn't funny. I would call it a real tragedy.
