If brewers reduce planned production, to purchase less grain, to reduce waste, what would that do to prices?

You can do direct deposit into a savings account, just get an account slip (routing and account number) from the bank. You can also do a checking account and simply shred the debit card and checks, or simply request not to have them. All you need is a routable account. You don't need "easy access"

I really like Cox for the most part...

It's about affecting the whole... when a party gains popularity, even 8-10% this tends to be seen in policy changes in the other parties... I'm not pushing for a straight/classic libertarian agenda, I'm more pragmatic than that... the point is to influence the whole a bit more.

It's about trying to reduce the size of government consistently... It's when a party tends to get 8-10% of the popular vote, and even 5% of seats in congress that those concepts start to influence decisions... I'm more pragmatic than a typical Libertarian, just the same I'm for creating change, and reducing the federal government in was Democrats or Republicans would oppose.

I have a bank account that I can (and do) have a portion of my income go into that I can't touch without going into the bank... set such an account up, only in your name, and have that amount go there.

It definitely has me rethinking my tax contributions. I think if everyone changed their deductions to 99, so they don't have taxes taken out, it would choke the government off a bit... I'd rather 20-30% of my income go into savings for the year.. I won't make anything, but it at least would stop the interest free loan the the US Govt.

This is why I've voted Libertarian (where available) for the past decade now.

I know you're joking.. but I do know of quite a few telnet boards still up and running...

Thank you... Though I didn't experience this, my brother had a teacher that would score boys by rule 10% lower than equivalent work by girls in the class. It's one thing to encourage girls to work in areas that are typically male dominated, it's quite another to offer incentive to discriminate.

Generally, it's still worth it for an SSD if you have at least a SATA2 controller... it won't run full out, but is usually 2-4x the speed of any HDD.

Windows as of 7 (maybe vista) supports actual symbolic links via mklink .. you'd need to login as another user, replace ownership/permissions of the profile directory, and then move and mklink /D to the original location... It's a pita, and honestly, I prefer my OS and profile data on the SSD ...

It's probably a much slower SATA2 disk controller which is your bottleneck.

Not necessarily, the cache and buffers on the chip may be the same depending on model. A couple years ago a 256/240GB was the sweet spot, as usually had twice the throughput, but the controller was the same for the 512gb so throughput was roughtly the same or slightly slower... that said, go for the space you really need. If it's the only drive in a laptop, go for at least a 240/256, but today I'd go for 480/512gb. (Note the 240/256 and 480/512 are pretty much the same, it's just the slack space is taken off the top/bottom for advertising, a certain amount of space on SSDs are reserved for handling bad sectors).

Don't get me wrong, I loved B5, and today, imho it's just behind the newer BSG as best sci-fi of all time. That said, the first series wreaked of day-time soap opera in terms of the acting. It got better, but lets be serious here... Again, loved the show, but wish they could re-shoot the entire first season with better acting, and a slight bump in the dialog.
