Beware Seagate products the FreeAgent is an overheating nightmare! And my experience with their customer service was very bad and to say they are inflexible is an understatement! The last place you want to back up you data is on a Seagate external drive!!!!!
They behave like their product is superior in some way, maybe it once was, but they are slipping big time. I have several backup drives some have been going 1-2 years, I foolishly bought a Segate FreeAgent Pro it overheated and burned out in less than 4 months the esata never worked, a known issue, and the overheating issue is known as well! Yes it's under warranty but I lose my data and have to mail it in, so that they can send me another bum drive! Iomega in similar circumstances just sent out a new drive, I say drop Seagate like a hot potato!
"dangerously erratic and unfashionably violent" Is that a quote from Bush about Iraq?...I love your logic that has been the rational for most invasions, not against! I think Iran is the most recent qualifier.
"and their deterrent power shouldn't be downplayed." "Deter 1 : to turn aside, discourage, or prevent from acting" Hypersonic Bombers are very first strike capable, that's an incentive for the other guy to shoot first, I'm not sure that I understand the deterrent value here. Hypersonic flight is coming and I understand that....but a Hypersonic Bomber will provoke more than deter, correct me if I'm wrong here.
"stupid "leave them alone" crap What has this got to do with hypersonic nuclear first strike capability? Thats not an economic relationship it's a bullying militaristic threat. Now go ahead and mod me out of existence for stating the obvious.
With a little Google effort you too can become informed Gospodin!
"Westrick, Texaco, and I.T.T.
I.T.T. had yet another conduit to Nazi Germany, through German attorney Dr. Gerhard Westrick. Westrick was one of a select group of Germans who had conducted espionage in the United States during World War I. The group included not only Kurt von Schröder and Westrick but also Franz von Papen -- whom we shall meet in company with James Paul Warburg of the Bank of Manhattan in Chapter Ten -- and Dr. Heinrich Albert. Albert, supposedly German commercial attache in the U.S. in World War I, was actually in charge of financing yon Papen's espionage program. After World War I Westrick and Albert formed the law firm of Albert & Westrick which specialized in, and profited heavily from, the Wall Street reparations loans. The Albert & Westrick firm handled the German end of the J Henry Schroder Banking loans, while the John Foster Dulles firm of Sullivan and Cromwell in New York handled the U.S. end of the Schroder loans.
Just prior to World War II the Albert-Papen-Westrick espionage operation in the United States began to repeat itself, only this time around the American authorities were more alert. Westrick came to the U.S. in 1940, supposedly as a commercial attache but in fact as Ribbentrop's personal representative. A stream of visitors to the influential Westrick in-eluded prominent directors of U.S. petroleum and industrial firms, and this brought Westrick to the attention of the FBI.
Westrick at this time became a director of all I.T.T. operations in Germany, in order to protect I.T.T. interests during the expected U.S. involvement in the European war.8 Among his other enterprises Westrick attempted to persuade Henry Ford to cut off supplies to Britain, and the favored treatment given by the Nazis to Ford interests in France suggests that Westrick was partially successful in neutralizing U.S. aid to Britain.
Although Westrick's most important wartime business connection in the United States was with International Telephone and Telegraph, he also represented other U.S. firms, including Underwood Elliott Fisher, owner of the German company Mercedes Buromaschinen A.G.; Eastman Kodak, which had a Kodak subsidiary in Germany; and the International Milk Corporation, with a Hamburg subsidiary. Among Westrick's deals (and the one which received the most publicity) was a contract for Texaco to supply oil to the German Navy, which he arranged with Torkild Rieber, chairman of the board of Texaco Company.
In 1940 Rieber discussed an oil deal with Hermann Goering, and Westrick in the United States worked for Texas Oil Company. His automobile was bought with Texaco funds, and Westrick's driver's license application gave Texaco as his business address. These activities were publicized on August 12, 1940. Rieber subsequently resigned from Texaco and Westrick returned to Germany. Two years later Rieber was chairman of South Carolina Shipbuilding and Dry Docks, supervising construction of more than $10 million of U.S. Navy ships, and a director of the Guggenheim family's Barber Asphalt Corporation and Seaboard Oil Company of Ohio.9
I.T.T. in Wartime Germany
In 1939 I.T.T. in the United States controlled Standard Elektrizitats in Germany, and in turn Standard Elektrizitats controlled 94 percent of Mix & Genest. On the board of Standard Elektrizitats was Baron Kurt von Schroder, a Nazi banker at the core of Nazism, and Emil Heinrich Meyer, brother-in-law of Secretary of State Keppler (founder of the Keppler Circle) and a director of German General Electric. Schroder and Meyer were also directors of Mix & Genest and the other I.T.T. subsidiary, C. Lorenz Company; both of these I.T.T. subsidiaries were monetary contributors to Himmler's Circle of Friends -- i.e., the Nazi S.S. slush fund. As late as 1944, Mix & Genest contributed 5,000 RM to Himmler and Lorenz contributed 20,000 RM. In short, during World War II International Telephone and Telegraph was making cash payments to S.S. leader Heinrich Himmler.10 These pay

"This has become that way because BushCo pressured to blew off a trial against MS while we all know that he should not have done that, administrators in europe saw the impeding power gap and dove into that and are slowly taking over authority about important international questions.
That's the price for MS that BushCo sees the world as a collection of unilateral treaties while most world players prefer a multilateral environment, in short, despite the big army they blew it and underestimated economic power compared to militairy power."
Good point Yaa. The courts should define these issues and not the ability of one company or individual to lobby and manipulate the government.

Pure politics that's the nature of Creationism. When you have a federally tailored and controlled education system and when that system is vulnerable to and controlled by to lobby manipulation, Creationism is what you get.
