Reply to Has global warming become a religion? in Politics JoeUser Forums

I'm sorry, but they *have* created a pig farm where there is minimal CO2 emmission. They turn gaz and liquid wastes into natural gaz used to warm the farm itself. QED. I think you only visited backward farms Draginol. You've declared that it's impossible for any industry to find ways to stop these emmissions simply because you don't even dare admiting the possibility that you may be wrong. Can you link to that? How do you turn waste

[quote]Well then how can it be called a 'community' skin if you choose who to add and leave out?[/quote] A community suite is one made by various community members. It is not one that "everyone" was invited to participate in. If several community members band together to make a suite, no matter how they get together, it is a community suite.

People are going to heaven because you're moving instead of stubbornly sticking where you are. Remember that, too. How does her touching the lives of somebody in a different state help anymore than staying where she is? If she has made a difference in the lives of people as she has stated in her blogs, how is moving changing that?

Of course we're still asking ourselves.....what are we thinking? We are leaving perfectville for what? Some unknown future plans? I just hope we're doing the right thing. I'll just have to keep thinking that while I may not know what the future holds, I do know who holds the future. Time to shut that book and open another. Are you sure you really want to move? What is motivating you to move? Everything you write about moving is so

Reply to Hey I just got Vista I'm paying the "Ultimate" Price for it! in Personal Computing JoeUser Forums

I don't think that it's a requirement yet, it may be sometime in the (possibly near) future but right now for the most part I think skinners can still continue to author skins for a winxp environment and still have a large enough winxp user base to satisfy. I didn't say it was a requirement, I said "if you want to stay current". Skinning Vista is quite different than XP. There are other options that exist and the start menu is much differen

Said it once and I'll say it again: I've never had those kind of things happen to me. Sounds like a few people here are a victims of "User Error" and blame it on the OS... LOL! Kona, do you not remember when XP came out? You said all this same kind of crap about it. Then you switched to it. Same crap, different OS. Vista is new and different. It's no different than when XP came out. Some people will l

Reply to Too much magic for Halloween in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Well, I will make sure to make myself heard about this. I have a meeting with my sons teacher the day before Halloween and I plan on speaking to her about how offended I feel that my son is not allowed to dress as the character of his choice simply because someone does not agree with it. I believe they should suspend all Halloween activities period. Either they cater to

Reply to Sneak Preview: Quest in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Yep, that is indeed an Essorant suite! It has a subtle animation in the start menu, and is smooth and polished like everything that Timmeh does. It started out as just a WB6 skin, but then we decided that it would make a nice suite, so poor Tim made icons, a wall, and gadgets to go with it. Then, once it was all together, we thought it would make a good gift to the Object Desktop subscribers. So, stay tuned to find out when it will be made available!

Reply to Homework: What Do YOU Think is Appropriate? in Parenting JoeUser Forums

Yes. That's just the way it is. You could say the same with anyone that has a husband away for extended time for whatever reason. You do what you have to do to make it work. Anyone with a seasonal type job is probably in the same boat. Anyone with a serious ill spouse would be too. Your husband wasn't "away". Your spouse wasn't serious ill. He made a lifestyle choice- one that caused him to neglect his family during that t

For tax accountants, January through April is the busy season. Some even work Sundays. My MIL did taxes, but she still worked in time for the kids even with working 7 days a week during that time. When people make comments like "it's all time management", then it should be considered for both parents, not one. Otherwise, you are making the lifestyle choice that one parent is basically the parent and the other just works and isn't involv

Have you READ the responses on this thread? Obviously not. Yes, I did read. And, yes, I do see your negativity. If you "don't care", then why even comment back? I asked a question- you came back with a defensive remark. Typical. As for homework in a house with a myriad of other activities, if you had had homework too, or had to bring work home, would you have been able to make time

Reply to Parents with Infants....DO NOT USE THAT MEDICINE! in Health & Medicine JoeUser Forums

hmmmm. Parents overdose children. The medicine must be a danger to everyone and be pulled off the shelves! Why does the logic seem missing? Shouldn't we be more concerned that PARENTS are idiots? The medicine itself was not a danger....stupid parents were. Yeah, I was just thinking that. I mean, Tylenol can be dangerous, too, if overdosed (can cause renal failure), should we pull that, too?

Reply to Review of Celexa in Medical Technology JoeUser Forums

I take Effexor XR, and have for over a year. It's a SNRI, or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. It helps with my chronic pain and my OCD (I no longer have to check my curling iron to make sure it's unplugged 4 times before I leave in the morning, as an example). However, like many metal illnesses, once you treat it, you start to realize that you relied on some of the perks of it. Being OCD caused me to force myself to be more aware of everything all the time.&nb

This is nothing more than a chance to jump on my back just for the sake of doing so and adds nothing to the discussion. No, it wasn't. You said: "I was basically a single parent from Jan-April every year which is most of the school year." You were comparing yourself to a single parent by saying that you were "basically" one. Working 9-3 (6 hours a day) after the kids are in school full time, along with actually being married a
