hahahha oh I know that feeling. Specially when I call Radio Shack for a customer and ask if they have any NICs. The sales girl replies - 'we have something called an Ethernet card, but no Nics.'

Or they day I show up to fix an adsl line and the customer tells me there has been a mistake. He wants a tech, not sales.

IT Grandad I like that one. I could go back earlier if I counted my Atari and Commodore 64?

Wow.. new entries every day! I gotta read wikis more. opposites attract?

LOL An IT-Guy.. Ah well I have been at this since what.. 97 or so? Worked out in the field with telco guys, programmed routers, firewalls, linux boxes, fixed windows... data recovery.. so I am used to the guy thing. it IS a male dominated field.. so I accept it and go with the flow. Specially gaming ;)

And, I prefer the intelligent geek IT guy myself ;)

ya, I have seen that one before, but I still spit soda all over my monitors laughing!

now THAT is funny!

lol funny! I actually know more guy Ashley's than I do girl ones. Over the phone, many people think I say Eric .. not realizing its Erica.

As far as RFCs go.. Ive read up to RFC 1483.. still haven't seen the male one. RFCs make great reading in the 'library' ... ok on the can.

Oh.. How could I have grown up for 30 odd years and never knew this! Thanks for the Enlightenment..

  As far as Enlightenment goes though.. I prefer using Enlightenment (or other WM's) in GNOME and KDE

I really thought I was a female all these years..

yup, specially when the client realizes I am a woman, not a guy :)

ahh thats it. This is a windose box. I have not DLd Chrome to the Gentoo box yet. I bet that is where the 4.0 is. I had a blonde moment.

After reading this, I went to Chromes site and downloaded the latest BETA which installed and shows 3.0. If 3.0 is Beta now, where is 4.0 at? I have to admit I did see a major difference between 2.0 and 3.0

As a child, I grew up on the 2 original BSGs .. and loved them. Fort he first 2 seasons, I refused to watch the new BSG. I was appalled they changed Starbuck to a female.. Then one day I happened to see it accidentally not realizing it was the new BSG.. and yes, I was hooked. I had to go back and see all the first 2 seasons.

I fell in love and carried the storylines all the way through. I am glad I did too.. I loved it and it always kept me wanting more.

The ending I loved. Everything that happened the past few weeks I never thought would. Adama give the lady up?? I was captured till the end when Starbuck jumped the ship and they found earth. Ok, for me, I was happy they did.. but to me, the last half just was not in accord with the other seasons. I did like how they explained Hera though.. but I was still left hanging with so many questions.

Its funny this should just now come out.. this has been going on for at least 20 years. If you have ever applied at a convent store, or other places, including IT where you have a multi page questionere that asks such things as "if you were in this situation, would you report this, if you saw someone steal would you do this.. etc.." it is an adaptive form of the MMPI used to assess personality.

Many times the same question is repeated 3-4 times but worded different to see if you will answer differently for the same concept.

And how much CO2 did it take for researchers to come up with this.. and how much co2 does it take to have everyone read their findings?
