Macs aren't immune to this problem either. I'll have to try using those settings on my Mac and I'll get back to you all. Right now, FF is consuming more than 71% of the CPU!

I want you all to think realistically here. IF this H+O injection into the air intake scheme works, the amount of H and O injected would not be enough to be any more dangerous to the combustion process then the current method atomizing purified gasoline (a hydro-carbon molecule), mixing it with cool, dense air, and igniting it with a spark, causing an enormous, contained explosion. Even adding NO2 to the air stream isn't particularly dangerous, and I'm talking about pure NO2 out of a pressurized bottle, instead all we're talking about here is creating a minimal vacuum to draw the vapors of cracked water out of a canister and into the air cleaner, to be used in the combustion process, making it more efficient. I actually investigated this process a week or so ago and, because I'm more cynical then I once was, I'm skeptical as to the claims of the web site. I may, if time and money are no trouble, investigate this further some time in the future, but I'm most skeptical of the OP and another poster who have extremely low post counts and come here with links and such describing this product and it many virtues. I smell a salesman, and he needs to bathe. If a regular member of good moral character who is known to be honest and upstanding pops up and says he's installed this devise on his vehicle and it does, indeed, improve the performance and efficiency of said vehicle with no drawbacks or extra maintenance, then I'll listen a little closer. Until then, I remain highly skeptical.

To be intellectually honest in this discussion, all one needs to do is study a little bit of history. It's a fact that cancer has been on the rise, almost exponentially, for the past 60 years or so. Before then, when the cancer trend was much lower and people were more likely to die of other disease or old age or from some side effect of their employment like coal miners disease or chemical lung damage, it was common for people to smoke. People smoked at work, in the theaters, in their homes, at their desks at work, you name it, smokers were everywhere. And cancer wasn't very commonplace. Several things that began to happen at around this time, too, was the introduction of above-ground nuclear bomb tests in Nevada as well as other radiological testing on the Eastern Seaboard. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the tobacco cigarette companies began to introduce other ingredients into their products during this time as well. I'm sure there are all manner of poisons that were introduced into the food and water supplies during this time along with the drug prohibition which removed all the safeguards regarding the regulation and manufacture of those products. Before the 60's LSD, for example, was produced in a lab in Switzerland. Once it was outlawed, however, it was made in labs in people's homes which were unregulated and I'm sure didn't make for the purest product in the world. How can you have a product that's pure when it's made in someone's filthy bathtub? All of these factors and more that I couldn't possible go into detail about in a post on this forum, changed the environment in which we live and introduced carcinogens into our lungs and bodies. It's no coincidence that cancer rates began to climb dramatically from about 60 years ago up to this day. People have been smoking for a very long time. People have been dying in droves from cancer, for only the past half century or so and it's only getting worse. You can't solve a problem if you don't even know the cause. Do some honest fact-finding and determine what cause(s) are responsible for the high cancer rates, and while you're at it, find out why diabetes is at an all-time high. Instead of blaming tobacco for all the world's ills, place the blame where it belongs.

Why stop there??? Get a real fancy set-up, a Mac Pro with FOUR 750GB hard drives and set it up for QUAD boot! That'd be cool... Wonder if anyone's done it... Found here. Notice the dates when reading. I think that it's completely possible to have the choice of four operating systems on board. Wonder if you could run them all at once...

Way to go, MB! I knew you'd make us proud! Yes, Safeway is HUGE here. We live in a tiny village and shop at Safeway when we go to town. They've got pretty good stuff, I especially love their new "O" organic line. Good prices on that too. I'm unemployed now, again. Saved up $10,000 USD toward a new work truck from the last job that only lasted five weeks. I just need a few more of those jobs or one that lasts a few months and I'll have all I need for the truck. I'll post a picture when I finally get it.

With Mac, as with any expensive computer, unless you're simply made of money and don't give a crap, it's really not a brilliant idea to test their products for them. Let someone else have the headache, buy Revision B or C or later. Same thing goes with software. By now I'd expect Tiger to be pretty well ironed out, so I left a message for my nephew, a complete moron -16 years old, to go ahead and install it. What's the worst that can happen? He'd have to install Leopard and wait some more? This way, at least, he can be my experimental lab monkey. Really not much of a stretch... I'll keep this forum up to date with any issues he tells me about. Meanwhile, if anyone has it on their computer, feel free to post your impressions and/or problems.

Come on people! I know I'm not the only Mac user around here. Help me out!

And here all this time I thought things like that would scare the crap OUT of someone! Too funny!

A new tread mill made its way here around Christmas.A few silly things including a shirt, arrived in the mail,Several cards arrived too. I burned some Elvis onto a CD for the OLD lady and wrote her a nice letter and mailed it to her.I guess that's pretty much all the action around here during the Christmas season. It's really a shame the 25th of December has come to be known more for how much crap people can buy for each other than for its religious significance. And it gets much much worse with each passing year. Maybe we'll go to Christmas Mass next year.

And beg. We like to see LOTS of begging. That helps. Don't forget to grovel. Shows humility and shame all at the same time.Oh, and bribery. Saint Michael LOVES to be bribed. If you do stuff for him like donate to his favorite charity or shovel snow for him for a month, something like that, he might donate a couple credits your way. And, yes, Mike IS his own favorite charity.

I didn't find reading that link terribly helpful. For one thing, it really doesn't reach a conclusion. A good idea brought up is to block a specific MAC address, which must be possible, but pretty obscure information. In the future, assuming you're here to earn hosting credit, sum up the content contained within this other forum to form your own fresh content relevant to the subject at hand. You're not going to gain anything but spam warnings with three-word responses. I'd personally be interested in learning how to block specific machines from accessing my web site. But, then, I'd also like to be able to beat NSA computers in the encryption game... And, for the original poster at that other forum, when you're constantly harassed by a 13 year old, it's still harassment and there's still a law being broken, even if the parents don't act responsibly. If this is you, keep records of your incoming cell phone calls, and keep records of the comments he leaves on your web site to show the juvenile authorities.

Box Elder bugs. Reminds me of what we call "stink bugs" around here. Those damn things will absolutely find any slight crevice to exploit in the fall to gain entry into the house. We sometimes have twenty or thirty of them in the bathroom in the evening. The females are round and dark grey and the males are longer and a rust color. You can zap them with your finger, sending them sailing across the room and still they'll manage to get up and fly about some more making this annoying buzzing noise as they clumsily seek some kind of footing to land on while circling the light on the ceiling. And don't irritate them or they'll spray out this most foul odor stinking up the place for a while. I imagine that's why they have few if any predators eating them. Only the hungriest spider will go for a disgusting meal of stink bug. If a skunk could be an armored insect, it'd be a stink bug.

Well, did your posting this thread improve your ratings? Should we visit again, this little crime-free Utopian paradise, tomorrow? What's the score?

I haven't used Netscape in years! I'm surprised they lasted this long to be honest! IE is just a virus/malware/spyware/hacker magnet so, for me at least, it's FF or Opera with just the occasional Safari thrown in to make it interesting.

Lambda core is a silly place. I visited your site, but now I just have questions. Questions with no answers...

I was just wondering if anyone wants to mention their favorite vermin and how they're getting on. I've got mites, mostly dust mites, but I'm sure there are others feeding on my rotting carcass at night as I lay there, mouth half open, drool pooling on the pillow cover. I've had fleas, ticks, and intestinal worms, but they didn't stick around with the alcohol poisoning. There are all manner of pests crawling about at any given time. What's your personal favorite?Anyone here from Worms, Nebraska? Just wondering. Fine place, Worms...

Worst thing would be Mike "The Huckster" Huckabee.Best thing, of course, would be Ron Paul.

I'm sorry. Perhaps we forgot the question. I speak and write English fluently and sometimes, when I've consumed the proper quantity of libation, I can speak Vulgar as well. For color. And added effect. Once I learned some German, some Spanish, some French but never learned to apply Vulgar to any of them and quickly forgot them because there was no one to converse with in any of those languages. Vulgar really is the best language, though, if the company you keep will tolerate it for any length of time. Happily, it's used frequently around here. Good to practice.

My nephew bought a new ibook a few months ago and I told him to hold off on installing Tiger because it was so new I knew there would be problems with compatibility and bugs and stuff. So it's been a while now, they've released 10.5.1 and .2 shouldn't be too far behind. The question is: For those of you who've installed it, how do you like it? Is it pretty much bug-free by now or are you having problems running your favorite software?If you don't have a Macintosh or an informed opinion on the subject matter, please refrain from posting. Thank you.

I've got two cats. Surprise!!!Nigel, AKA "Little devil"Vlad, AKA, "Vladimir Putin"

The dead body is alright, nothing to write home about, what's that dripping off its head?The skull of Death is too benign looking. Should be shadowed more and should look more menacing. The rays behind make it look divine or something. Is this Mother Mary or is it the sinister Angel of Death?

So your thread is you asking yourself a rhetorical question? I don't understand what you are attempting to gain from this. What would you have your audience say? Do you want our support for your intoxication that comes every year on new year's eve, like millions of others around the world? Do you want us to condemn you for it? I'd just tell you to moderate your drinking a little so you're sure to remember your party and not act the fool any more than anyone else there. Otherwise, I don't see the problem. Go. Have fun. Drink, laugh, carry on and bring in the new year in cheer! Or feel guilty about it. I guess the choice is yours, isn't it?

Self-control is just that: SELF-control. You're always responsible for your actions and if you cheat in your relationship or do anything else that's self-destructive, the mind-altering substance you may have imbibed in can act as a kind of lubricant making doing these things easier. I contend, though, you had the tendency or thought inside to do it first, you're just looking for an excuse. I don't accept drugs (including alcohol) as an excuse. It may have been an accessory to your actions, but you're the one who put the bottle to your mouth, no one made you take that drink or smoke that stuff. Only you can take responsibility for your actions. Period.

That's good information so far, from both of you. As I become more educated, I'm realizing that that iPod isn't as constrained as I once believed. I think I'm correct in assuming if I can play it on iTunes, I can play it on an iPod, right? I can play all sorts of things on iTunes and I can rip vinyl all day long and play it back on iTunes, so that wouldn't be an issue. So, for the sake of comparison between these two products, the iPod has the replaceable battery, but that's because it needs it apparently. The iPod is more fragile, just like my MBP is. Pretty, but easily marred. The Zen:M (silly name) is more durable and reliable but doesn't have Bose in its back pocket like seagulls following a factory trawler eating the scraps. I, too, am liking the Creative product, but since I'm an Apple user and that's where I do all my audio stuff, I need to know that it would play nice with whatever MP3 player I get. That's pretty much the only reason I'm still even considering the iPod.

The reason MSG and all it's variants and helpers is found in around 90% of all the food in fast food restaurants is it's addictive. Plain and simple. They want you hooked, and that's one of the ways to do it. Fast food may as well be synonymous with "Slow death", that's what you're doing when you go to eat at one of those places and it's no different when you buy the garbage in the freezer isle of your favorite grocery store. Also, when you consume all the mainstream brands of soda, you're drinking water sweetened with high fructose corn syrup. And you criticize me for smoking??? I doubt that smoking an entire pack of the nastiest cigarettes is any worse for you then eating a happy meal with a coke! Seriously, take your fat a$$ over to the health food store and buy some whole grain foods and other natural foods and kick the fast food habit! And I'll refrain from smoking those nasty chemically enhanced "tobacco" cigarettes.
