Yesterday the instability of the computer I've been working on finally pushed me
back to troubleshooting my real work PC, as I could not stand to lose any more
productivity to the crashes the emergency box was subject to. The problem with
my real Win2K workstation is a memory leak I was experiencing with FrontPage, a
problem that persisted even after uninstalling and reinstalling the whole Office
suite. As it turns out, I have not actually determined the cause of the problem,
just a workaround, which is simply to save my work in a different subdirectory.
I'm sure there's a logical explanation for this (there always seems to be), but
it certainly defies the easy explanation that there was something corrupt in the
directory structure where I was previously saving things, since it's working
fine now, and I'm using the exact same directory as before, simply copied to a
new location. Anyway, I'm quite ecstatic at being able to work on my proper work
machine, and I'm guessing my newly learned habit of saving my work after every
keystroke might even come in handy one of these days.
Today might see some experimentation begin with some ads that are probably more obtrusive than what we're used to here. This is not a step that is taken lightly, but is essential to the ongoing survival of this site, and I can only hope that you will consider this a fair trade-off. As always, feedback on this is welcome.

I'm sure you're father was being polite. Animals are clever and cunning too but that's different from utilizing raw intelligence.
POP! Thats the sound you'll hear when you eventually pull your head out of your ass Halsy. My Dad has never said a single thing about a person that they didn't deserve. If he though Sergeant Major Ripka was vastly smarter than he could ever hope to be, thats because Sergeant Major Ripka deserved that compliment. I'm sure he'd think of you as an arrogant man who has no depth perception when it comes to judging people and character.
You are by far the most arrogant person I have ever met. Your arrogance blinds you to the fact that there are very intelligent people (more so than you I'd wager) that fit neatly into your "sheep" generalization. You'll just have to realize this on your own because it is clear no one on these message boards can convince you otherwise.
For the record, I don't believe I have ever said that I believe we were attack because of our "freedoms". Nor have I ever said I was for the war in Iraq. My problem with you Halsy has been your condescending tone, untrue generalizations about people, and general arrogant manner that makes me glad I have only known you through the internet.
