svelteParticipantI’m old school in a USB kinda way.
I have two 500 GB external USB drives and I back up – by hand – monthly. I’ve had enough recovery problems with incremental backup software – and especially with tape – that I don’t trust it anymore. You think everything is going fine until the first time you need to recover something.
Backup s/w is probably much better now but my habits are set in stone at this point.

svelteParticipantSorry, buddy, I’ve had my republican friends tell me for the last ten years how much Dems spend and how good Reps are at not spending $$.
When I point the facts out as depicted in the graph above, they fall silent.
What Republicans really mean is that they want to be taxed less, and to hell with whether we run a deficit or not.
I’ve had it with being lied to by the Republicans. It’s payback time.

svelteParticipantI have noticed a lot of what seems to be the MSM putting out a story that has been on the blogs for weeks.
It appears to me that, since media staffs have continually been cut lately, they look for the easy story by searching the net. They find something good on the blogs, use the idea as the seed for their story, change it so it can’t be attributed to any specific blog, and blam! instant story!
I guess there is nothing wrong with that, since they can get the opinions of many, many more people in shorter time with that method than going out in the real world and talking to people. Except that it doesn’t cover those that aren’t net-savy.
