Very disappointing, but predictable. I wish I could say something that would encourage you, Dustin. Perhaps, the future will be better than you could have ever imagined. That's what happened for me, anyway. > If you wound up with a family and the nice house and pickett fence and > all that jazz then you beat the norm.

I'm a bit of a geek... and even more unusual a female geek.. sort of LOL .... try wrapping your mind around that bit of irony ... only I am better at the creative stuff .. LOL I think the notion that geeks (or computer people) have an antisocial bent is a misinterpretation of the reality that most of us are independent, practical, creative, artistic people, and also good at math.. Are you good at math?? :) Creative people don't have the same need for alot of social acceptance... not that creative people don't enjoy it ... we just don't depend on it like some other personality types might. FWIW.. you don't seem antisocial to me at all.. just normal. LOL > So to sum it up, if getting older (60s, 70s) or however old you are, > under present conditions does not appeal to me. Actually, the older a person gets, the more comfortable it gets being true to ones self. You are 33? It gets better ....... :) -- Jenn (from Oklahoma)

I cannot answer for him/her. However, *if* there actually was a 'Law of Averages' is would say, categorically, that *some* of those appointed as MVP's *must* be BAD guys. Whilst I cannot prove same to you, Robear Dyer (PA Bear) has lied, many times, about me having been banned by one or more ISP's. I have never, ever, been banned by any ISP. As he has lied about that, he may well not be the Mr Nice Guy some folk think he is. > > Before you keep calling us fuckwits, you need to do your homework.

The supervising officer of that fund, a professional 'Suppy and Secretariat' officer was subjected to my 'outside the box' questioning. Long story short - he ended up in prison for embezzlement and was dismissed from the Royal Navy. I got a pat on the back! Every question I ask has a reason to it, not always obvious to the recipient. It soon becomes obvious to me who is honest and straight-forward and those who are less so! HTH -- Dave - I seek only the truth!

Yes.. and? That's not a crime. His website offered a tool which upon installation would disable malwarebytes software. A direct attack, if you will. At that point, his program clearly became malware and was treated as such. -- "Hrrngh!
