So how does one get a link removed here? Is email really the fastest option? I know craigslist has a 'community report' feature that takes like 10 complaints and then removes a post for review...
I use fastmail. They do good work and are worth the money. They block virii and do some spam blocking. It is good. Running your own mail is nice and all, but is a lot of work if you want well done virus prevention and spam blocking and a nice webmail and imap and such.
It is my understanding that as a citizen of one of the countries on the security council he's inelgible to be the UN secretary general. I can't seem to find anything on the web to back that up, but I can see the logic in such a restriction.
Ok. A company I worked for once wanted me to go to the Landmark Education thing. They also did the thing where they wouldn't explain exactly what it was. I ended up going with two other coworkers/friends. There was a bunch of mumbo jumbo talk, and they wanted you to share.. they were putting some heavy psychological pressure on. When we broke up for lunch, I pressured my coworkers to let me leave (one of them had done the driving). They were reluctant because it was 'required', so I ended up going back for the afternoon session. They wouldn't let you sit next to the same people. It all revolved around keeping you off balance and uncomfortable, it sucked so horribly. Shortly after lunch my coworkers got sick fo it too and we all walked out. They were really abusive to us as we left. Check out information on them on the internet. It won't kill you to go, and most people aren't permanently changed by any of it. I would avoid it, though. Generally I think anyone who gets sucked into something like this is pretty dumb.
