Hmm, that must have been some time before the civil war. The war increased the power of Washington and nullified the power of most states - especially southern ones. Democracy in the US got watered down accordingly, since there are no more proper 'checks and balances'.
Typically, 3 to 4 years of relevant work experience is counted as equivalent to 1 year of tertiary study. So after 28 years, this woman had the equivalent of 9 years of tertiary study - probably sufficient for her paper pushing job...
All the radio stations in Canada are playing mostly 30 to 40 year old stuff and the only bands that are popular are bands that make new music that sounds exactly like the old stuff. Most of the new music is unpalatable crap that no-one wants to listen to.
In the USA, radio stations are paid to play what the RIAA feeds them. Every few years they are fined hundreds of millions of dollars by the FTC, but that is no deterrent. It makes me wonder what Americans listen to, since I can't believe that they listen to their radio...
BTW, I just bought a nice new 2007 rock CD 'Embrace the Curse' by a band called 'I Hate Kate' (http://www.myspace.com/ihatekate). They make nice Rock music that sounds almost exactly but not quite unlike something from about 1975, but they claim to be 'alternative'. I guess it is a good 'Alternative' to 'Rap'...
The truth is that Vista is a home user OS. It was designed to play games and show movies. It was not designed to be used in a business, or to be used for any serious purpose beyond playing Donkey Kong and watching Mickey Mouse cartoons...
Vista was not designed for business use. I don't see why businesses would want to use it. Vista was designed to be a game and movie platform - that doesn't make sense in a business setting.
Plants originated on a planet where the sun was a different colour (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/6589157 .stm) and the hairdressers and telephone cleaners who colonized earth brought them here...
Since the VISTA refund from Dell is about $27 and the protocols make up about 0.001% of the total, the price for the protocols should be about a quarter penny...
The servers may still be asleep for 14 out of every 15 minutes on average.
Anyhoo, I'm not so much concerned with energy use as fan noise. I find that disabling the syslog daemon and shortening the HDD sleep timeouts to 25 seconds make an enormous difference in the noise level. Laptop mode on Linux will also speed step the CPU with an accompanying reduction in fan noise.
AFAIK the magnetic field of a black hole can also cause it to send out jets of schtuff, so it is no only Hawking radiation that can cause it to lose mass.
Black holes actually do radiate - they are actually not black at all. The result is that small black holes will evaporate and disappear after a while. Bigger ones are probably indistinguishable from an ordinary star when viewed from a distance. The difference being their mass which would be disproportionate to their luminosity. Read Hawking's "A Brief History of Time" for illumination.

"You pressed any key!"
"Allow or deny?"
Windows security is a sad joke. Unfortunately few people realize that.
First, we need to figure out how to download ink. Otherwise this ain't gonna work.
That is my solution - two screens actually. Ever since I treated myself to that, I quit printing stuff altogether.
Buy three and use RAID0.

Vista ain't done, till QuickTime won't run.
Hmm, isn't it:
VISTA = Viruses, Insecurity, Spamware, Trojans & Adware?
