Can't wait until the 30 year old who refused to hire me because I was too old (made sure he gave other reasons for not hiring me) gets the same thing happening to him! After all I could and did manage and code changes to a word processor that ran in 16K by using self-modifying code.

Personally I'd hate to be on this project. If you succeed everyone will say it should have been that way from the beginning if you fail you're the goat. A risky move on Accenture's part.

Does anyone remember the self winding watches that used ones hand movements to wind the watch. And a far simpler technology.

I can't believe that I automatically had root access.

If Fred could make his car run faster than any other car in history, I'd like to bet on him in track and field.

Don't know why Republicans have not pushed for these policies:

1> Any insurance company can sell insurance in any state UNLESS that state finds that they have acted in an illegal manner. This to be established by the state.

2> Taking away the trust protections in place that are only held by them and major league baseball. Remember Teddie Roosevelt.

Sarcasm noted and agreed with. However there should be reasonable argument whose points don't have to include conspiracy theories.
