For my last mortgage I took pictures of documents with my phone and sent them via email. Not one problem....living in the house now.
...and we're all very proud of you.
For my last refinancing, over 5 years ago, I received documents via email, signed, scanned and emailed them back. What does that have to do with my observation that "...fax machines are still very common in... mortgage underwriting."?
...And they all have stories of the "dumbass" PhD, that often turns out to be unfair. Like, maybe that this guy with a PhD couldn't find his car keys one time, and he was holding them in his hand the whole time. One little mistake like that is good enough for them to crap all over everything he's ever done, his alma mater, and the entire college education system...
Dude, how long have you been smarting over that car keys incident? Did someone yell "NEEERRRRRDDDD!!!" and stuff you in a locker?
And how in the world did you manage to connect the dots from making fun of PhD's to Nazi sympathizers? Bravo.
...Meanwhile people like Bill Gates and Larry Ellison steadily built up immense fortunes by making absolutely sure that everything their corporations did was directly geared to support continuous long-term profit growth. They may have done some good things along the way, but that was purely coincidental.
I take exception to that, and really, it limits your own perspective to make absolute statements like that, when they're pretty obviously not true. Bill Gates was definitely interested in transforming computing. You can criticize his methods, but his company advanced the commoditization of computers immensely, to the great advantage of the world. Could you have done better?
Just more activist trying to cause an another unwarranted hullabaloo. Diesel engines are a blessing. I ought to know. I've owned Cummins stock for many years.
I own stock in Baby Seal Fur Harvester, Inc. Does that make me an expert on threatened species?
That is interesting, since all of his crew mates I have heard say they are true.
I think you're full of shit. The people who made the accusations were either not part of his crew, or were not present on the missions for which they disputed Kerry's accounts and questioned the basis for the medals he received.
Some of those who did make the accusations flip flopped - they actually praised him, and one officer submitted his name for a Silver Star, before joining the Swiftboat political action group.
I think it's more likely that you just never bothered to get the facts, rather than that you are outright lying, but by all means, post a single shred of evidence for what you claim.

I'm not sure why you feel classical and/or modern arts are necessary to enjoying science and technology...
You misunderstand, I don't think the arts are necessary to enjoying science and technology, although they certainly do that. My point was that without the arts, in addition to science, technology, and lots of other things, *human existence* is kind of hollow.
Just sue the people running wallet/mixing/whatever servers for international money laundering and the anonymity will go away, the money flows become more traceable. They can still transfer it to temporary bank accounts and get mules to get the money out of ATMs, but it all becomes a little harder.
Harder, yes, and eventually someone like me on a grand jury will indict them for money laundering after the Justice Department squeezes the mules to make them turn on the higher ups.
I've never understood the appeal of museums. They are the most boring place in the world to be dragged to. It's not like you can learn anything or interact with anything there. It's like people are afraid to admit they are boring because they are afraid to appear uncultured. Does anyone honestly enjoy museums?
It depends on if you're genuinely interested in the subject being presented. For me, modern art? No thanks - total snore-fest.
Well, I won't try to argue you off of your opinion of modern art, but assuming you're talking about physical media of modern art turning you off, how about modern dance? Same? Snore fest? How about a modern dance that recounted the march of evolution from fish with legs to the next stage of humans after ours? I saw that in Philadelphia recently, from one of my favorite choreographers, it was brilliant, and some people got a better appreciation for evolution and what it means to humans.
I love science and technology, but without the classical and modern arts, it's kind of hollow.
