Simple math, eh? If you just passed 125 and the next exit is 142, then your kid holding his bladder for 7 miles is going to leave him 10 miles short of relief. Shame his Dad couldn't subtract two three digit numbers correctly. Perhaps after 99 they should just roll back to 00 and start again?
Wachovia's online banking requires IE for a subset of their services. I have complained but their response was to explain that their website is designed only for IE users. I'm actively looking for a new bank; preferably one that works better with MoneyDance (www.moneydance.com).
They are entitled to code for IE only and I am entitled to vote with my feet. This announcement should speed me along a little.
Can you tell me which ones you have that are over 40 years old? I thought the CD dated from the early 1980s.
I have a couple that are 20 years old and they still play fine but they're gathering dust now in a closet 'cos I ripped all my CDs to AAC last year (~ 400 of them.)
They're just idiots looking for any excuse to cause trouble. Like those idiots with Che Guevara shirts who have no idea of what a paredón is.
I, for one, do not know what 'paredon' means. I googled it and came up with a surf camp in Guatamala

I fail sto see how this resort pertains to my hero on a motorcycle, scourge of fascists until he was brutally murdered by the CIA, Che Guevera.
Edgar might be an idiot but his point is based on traditional economics, that is, some people would be prepared tp pay more than a given (market) price. Increase the price and they'll still buy the product. Basically, you're moving up along the demand curve. Popular artists have a steeper demand curve than other music and people will pay more. You maximize revenues at a higher price point than other artists.
Edgar, Jr.'s argument might be strengthened if he advocated 1.49 per song for 'hot' artists but also lower pricing (say 0.79) for back catalog items.
On the other hand, Steve Jobs is trying to build a new market for legal, downloaded software. Keep it simple (one price, single-click) and price it lower and you successfully grow that market.
Electronic downloads cost the music company less than traditional media. Steve is passing on cost efficiencies to consumers in the form of lower pricing (9.95 per CD instead of, say, 12.95). He can therefore be more succesful against his real competition, illegal downloads, than traditional CDs.
I started listening to Podcasts about a month ago & really enjoy them. I've two different commutes, one hour and three hours, & cannot imagine enduring them without listening to podcasts.
As to music, Insomnia Radio and Coverville have opened my eyes (ears?) to the scope and quality of independent, or even 'pod friendly' music out there. Podcasting is an excellent way to have someone filter content for you, leaving some delightful tunes to listen to.
Other podcasts tend to be Mac related. As a new Mac user (convert?) I value MacCast and RadioMacGuys, as well as the consistently entertaining TWiT.
The content varies, from slick to earnest to hokey to inebriated. But there such a choise of programming out there, and it's so easy to add and delete feeds, it's a privilege to enjoy people's hard work.
Here's one vote for podcasting.

This post is awesome. It should be a 5 not a 2. I should send it to my 17yo daughter who thinks Darwin is a reincarnation of the devil.
