"Full Stop" ( Mister .) is interesting but I doubt it would be accepted as an official name since it isn't really a letter combination. You might also run into forms on the internet etc. that wouldn't accept entry of "." as a valid name. Might be better to stick with a real letter or you'll never be able to buy anything online. Regards, Ross PS If "i" was the smallest letter, it would be cool since it also has meaning in English as a word: "i" am the greatest thing since sliced bread.

@unknownuser said: Windows XP only, but this little application (there is a free version) seems to be able to run applications portably even if they're not made as a portable application. http://www.mojopac.com/index.html This might be true, but there is a MAJOR gotcha. You have to have administrative privileges on the host machine. https://system.netsuite.com/app/center/center.nl/ctype.KB/it.I/id.2099/KB.2/.f Kinda defeats the purpose. Something called MojoPac Usher can be installed on the host machine, but you have to have administrative privileges on the host machine to do so. Too bad, this could have been very useful! chris

Sorry, I can't agree, because Bush won't be gone until January, when the President-elect is sworn in. I know, a technicality... EDIT: it appears some people are under the impression that just because Nov 4 is Election Day, that the occupant of the White House changes on Nov 5, but that's not the case - the outgoing President is still in power until 20 January. So, no "goodbye" until then - that's why I disagreed.

Or vote/comment yourself. If enough people vote properly then the system will work.

Maybe she was a Republican and didn't want to see him as President. Seriously -- American friends, get out and vote!

Great big grin...till I totally lost it when the ejection seats went off!

I have to confess that I knew about this feature but only used once; when I tried it (as I have never needed it).

Looking at that one i saw this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmA0tABTdVY&NR=1

Yea, I had a nice little phew myself. All thought it took nearly the whole Saturday. I had been a good boy and backed up my data, but what did that help when the cursed thing wouldn't boot? At least it's up and running. But I'm still wondering what caused it. Was it that the ubuntu CD wouldn't eject when it shut down?

Dan Dennett: A secular, scientific rebuttal to Rick Warren http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/dan_dennett_s_response_to_rick_warren.html Sounds reasonable to me! Just one thought! We supposedly have been created in God's likeness according to the Bible! Would it not follow that we should actually THINK about matters rather than simply follows various writings regardless of their origin?

Speaking as a student, i am far more likely to try and learn a piece of software if their is a student version available. Leading on from this, im a lot more likely to buy a full version of the afore mentioned software when i start using it commercially, as it is what i know. I suppose the way i look at it is no sale at all Vs. initially reduced profit, but with an increased user base.

As you recall, there was phorum software before vBulletin. vBulletin has ~100K+ posts.

chango, FYI, I don't assume an avatar associates with the person making a post. So, I wasn't making any assumption on your ethnicity. Unfortunately, I did mistakenly connect something you had posted with another.

"For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible." EDIT: You did understand this was an allegory about paying taxes, didn't you? From your response, I wonder.

McCain selected Palin as Vice President already shows that he is not the best choice for President. Palin has no experience in diplomatic, and she only know nothing about economy. She do not have her plan, and she even don’t know what the Vice President should do. She cannot cooperate with the McCain complains. McCain also know a little about her. The only reason that McCain chose Palin is to make the people make the focus to him. He only want the “Wow” from the people. It is risky to choose him to be president. What people will he choose to form the government if he be the president? What is his standard for choosing people? If he be the president, will the policy also only for show off but without any useful value?

Ten years of my life using the tools of the regime. I thought nothing could truly express my sentiments. That video is spot on.
