Incase anyone was wondering and without going into details I was reading some of the posts in the politics/news forum and it made me want to throw up, some of the anti-American/anti-Bush statements. I could not believe Anand would allow such posts. I then cut all ties with Anandtech (even went as far as blocking Anandtech keyword in my SonicWall SOHO Firewall), but then I got to thinking, being able to post whats on your mind and being able to speak out against the president is what make my country so great. So I removed the restrictions from my firewall and even renewed my subscription:D And as you can see my three boxes are back on SoB for TeAm Anandtech............................... Sean.....

I go in OT occasionally to have fun, but generally have enough self control (or so I like to think; usually it's just a matter of a lack of time ;)) to keep myself out of arguments in P&N. At rare times I go in there to check on a thread started by dmcowen or one of our other DC people about laws relating to computer privacy and fair use rights, and then I usually end up getting into debates with that tcsenter troll who likes to defend the evils that the United Corporations of America try to perform. Oh well, I digress...

Anyway, glad to see you're back with the most freaking awesome TeAm on the 'net. :D

I don't venture into P&N either. I really don't like to argue with people a whole lot, I get too irritated when I argue and it puts me in a bad mood.

Glad to have you back Sean! :D:D:D

Hi sean2002.
Welcome back!!
I usually stay here in Distributed Computing.
Almost everyone is polite and respectful to each other.
I ventured here and discovered seti a while back and made this my home.
