    WTF? Woman asked me for 'gas money' at an ATM!!

    Maybe she needs to change her angle from gas money to asking people to support some kind of cause. For a few days last summer a homeless guy in Pittsburgh had a box that he had written "All Human Lifeforms Must Die" on one side and people were actually putting money into it.

    Gay Marriage...

    I'm not suggesting that it will somehow 'turn them gay.' I'm just saying that when you are repeatedly exposed to an action portrayed in a manner that makes it seem to be the accepted or 'correct' way, when you experience feelings against that perceived norm you will begin to question the...

    Gay Marriage...

    Could it be related to adoption of children. Right now it seems that only wealthy gay people can adopt children and (I could be very wrong) they might be adopting them as one person, rather than a couple. I'm not against gay people, but I don't believe that it is in the best interests of a...

    An error was found in a directory's cluster chain

    I just tried running PGP's freespace wipe and got that message. It suggested running scandisk, but I had just run scandisk right before trying freespace wipe. Can anyone help out with these questions: 1.) What does this error mean about the condition of my hd? 2.) How long can I use this hd...

    Can I monitor wireless activity

    I live in an apartment building and I use a d-link 614+ as an access point. I don't care if someone wants free internet access, I would just feel better knowing because I also use file sharing and remote desktop.

    Don't you just hate it when...

    How about when a scene like that comes on and you're at your girlfriend's house with her and her parents before you know them well. That's much more uncomfortable.

    MSWord disappears when I maximize the window

    I have tried minimizing Word by using the button in the top right corner of the screen, clicking its taskbar button, using Win+M, or by using the Show Desktop button. When I later maximize the window by clicking it taskbar button, the window will open the whole way and then disappear. It does...

    Angle side fan?

    I am putting an intake fan on the side panel and wondered if anyone has tested a similar setup with a side fan angled slightly to point towards the rear of the case? It would be more trouble than I really have the time for (Pa. bar in July, ugh!), but if it would make a noticeable difference...

    Xp system tray resets icons to "hide when inactive"

    I set all of the icons in the system tray to "always hide" They all keep this setting except for my network ones, the ones that show 2 little computers side by side that blink when there's activity. Everytime I restart they are changed to the "hide when inactive" setting. I change these by...

    echo effect for your voice recording?

    If it's just a wav file you can do it with the MS Sound Recorder that comes with windows. But it doesn't do it real time and it's also very basic, but you might already have it. Nero wave editor gives you much more control, but still not real time (as far as I know, never had a reason to use...

    Anything good for an empty 3.5" bay?

    I have an empty one and would just like to fill it for something to do if I could find something cheap and minimally useful. I would never use a zip drive, especially with the price of disks. Any suggestions?
