Re: Xerox Alto Source Code

I also used Altos. The best game ever was "Trek" in which you were the captain of the Enterprise or Klingon or Romulan ship and *interacted* with other players on the network! Way way way before it's time.

Those were the days!

Re: Keep Dating Your Wife: 25 Ways to Show Your Wife You Love Her

Agree 100%! All of these concrete examples can be boiled down to "Love your wife!"

I received some great advice 29 years ago when my wife and I attended our Engaged Encounter Retreat (pre-marriage couples retreat). That is the relationship between you and your spouse must come first...ahead of your families and even your children!

Re: “Grammar Bullies” Are The Worst

RandyS — Thu, 31 Oct 2013 16:03:12 -0000

About the only things that jump out at me are verb tenses and misuse of bring/take. I almost always use "who" and never "whom" and I'm beginning to use "they" instead of "he or she".

What an awesome English teacher! And that means I will break very few grammar rules, since I don't know many!

Well...I've never used it. If I hear it, then I immediately wonder what they really want.

I think the advantage is in the sharing aspect.

Re: Greiner said. "What's that going to do to the quality of discussion and debate online?"

That will make people want to stop lying!

Re: Apple TV will soon have Time Warner Cable channels on board

RandyS — Thu, 04 Jul 2013 15:01:24 -0000

I'm confused. If I have Time Warner Cable in my house, why would I want to watch it through my Apple TV?

Or is this a way to watch all the previous episodes of shows?

Re: Chevy Volt gets new $4000-5000 cash-back incentives, 3-year lease now $269/month

RandyS — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 20:34:35 -0000

Thanks for the details. It sounds like the Volt is perfect for your commuting needs and it's saving you a ton of money. I'm gonna have to look into this now. :-(

Re: Kings Island enacts new ride policy for disabled guests

RandyS — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 08:47:16 -0000

You can't be serious. I say the park should publicize the names of any parents that would hire a disabled person. Public humiliation might work.

RandyS — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 08:27:46 -0000

OK. Details please. How much does it cost to "fill up"? And how far can you travel on a full tank?

Re: Appeals court to release ruling on city's parking plan

RandyS — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 17:08:27 -0000

A $30 million dollar 30 year contract isn't the same as a contact to buy new furniture for the mayor's office. Size matters.

Re: Appeals court to release ruling on city's parking plan

I would post a sign in front of City Hall: "I don't care what the public thinks! I'm gonna do whatever I want."

Re: Nissan UK now allows LEAF buyers to lease battery separately

RandyS — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 20:37:45 -0000

This is *not* a good idea. Why do *I* have to guess if there's going to be a problem with the battery. Buying different sized battery packs or having the ability to buy the car initially with a smaller pack then add more later would be a good idea. Then the initial outlay would be smaller and you could start with a lower maximum range and then increase it later if necessary.

Re: Cadillac ELR to have battery regen paddles

RandyS — Fri, 12 Apr 2013 20:33:23 -0000

Sigh. I don't want to have to do this. When I get in a car I want the *car* to figure this out. But then what I really want is a RoboCar.

Re: Researchers discover way to produce hydrogen fuel from any plant

RandyS — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 08:22:42 -0000

OK. When?

I wonder if the waste heat from an engine is enough to extract more hydrogen from the plant "fuel"?

Awesome!!

Re: This is what 2,000 calories of food looks ilke

RandyS — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 15:21:56 -0000

Agreed. They should have shown how different versions of the three meals and snacks could add up to 2000. I mean, who doesn't know that Cinabons and Fettuccine Alfredo are calorie rich. Maybe they'll read these comments and do a better job.

Re: Digitimes: Apple working on 4K Ultra HD TV set

RandyS — Wed, 27 Mar 2013 13:08:31 -0000

I might think about this...if not for the price. I'm guessing about $2000.00.

Then, NO. You are a criminal and should be arrested by the FBI and tried in a court.

Simply, no.
