[OT] Lost generation
Subject: Palindrome If you cannot reach this site from this email, please go to YouTube and look for it as it is really quite clever. LISTEN AND READ CAREFULLY. A palindrome reads the same backwards as forward. This video reads the exact opposite backwards as forward. Not only does it read the opposite, the meaning is the exact opposite.. This is only a 1 minute, 44 second video and it is brilliant. Make sure you read as well as listen...forward and backward. This is a video that was submitted in a contest by a 20-year old. The contest was titled u @ 50 by AARP. This video won second place. When they showed it, everyone in the room was awe-struck and broke into spontaneous applause. So simple and yet so brilliant. Take a minute and watch it.

Re: [NF] Postgre SQL
I would like to replace the present vfp9 dbf/dbc tables with postgresql. The problem is that we have thousands of installations in all states - all in healthcare offices/clinics where most of the people know almost nothing about installing software, hardware, etc. For us to do them one at a time is not possible.

Re: Microsoft to release FoxPro 'Sedna' as Shared Source - next generation?
I started with fox in 1988 also. It would be great if most of the present users could come up with a substitute that would run on windows, Linux and Mac and would 'look' as much like VFP as possible, with a framework that would duplicate as closely as possible all the functions in VFP. Also, we need a conversion technique better than those available for converting fpd to vfp. Dabo anyone? I think Python is as good as any language I have seen and can probably do anything that VFP can do. I will not do a significant conversion to anything that is limited to running on Windows. fpd to vfp was my last effort in that direction. - Original Message - From: Ted Roche [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: profox@leafe.com Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2007 2:06 PM Subject: Re: Microsoft to release FoxPro 'Sedna' as Shared Source On 3/14/07, Matthew Jarvis [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Remember this day my friends...

Re: [OT] Costco: The 'anti-Wal-Mart'
If you have a wholesale membership ($100) you get back a percentage of your purchases. I have received over $200 back every year since Costco came to my area (Foster City, CA) I get computers, hard drives, etc there as well as supplies for the office. My only complaint is that I can't use a credit card except when I purchase online. They do so well that the nearest Walmart is in Mountain View - about 30 minutes South depending on the traffic. We have a super Target and I do shop there. Sometimes you don't want to purchase 100 pounds of rice or some things that are usually only at Safeway. The Costco in South San Francisco has a gas station and I agree it is good. I buy gas there almost all the time. Again, my complaint is that I can't use a credit card.

Re: Vista USB
I agree. Those who watch CNBC in the morning for the stock market reports are aware of their recent 'upgrade' to the flashy graphics with the annoying sound effects. It used to be so loud that I had to turn it off. I guess they got so many complaints that they had to tone it down a little, but it is still obnoxious. CNBC needs to get rid of the fat blond with the young kids 'for a lack of a better word' and all the other obnoxious comments. She has 2 minutes with a guest and she takes 1.45 minutes to ask a question so convoluted and full of twisted, stupid logic that the person being interviewed has no idea what to say. Her laugh is like a choking chicken. God!, who approves this garbage? They obviously do not use the product. What idiot comes up with that garbage? What idiot approves it? Fire the bastard. Give us some relief from the pain. Around the mid 1980's we got a Sharp copier that copied 20 copies per minute. That was very fast back then and this monster took up a lot of space and cost $1,000 for routine maintenance. It had a horribly obnoxious female voice that talked to you while you were copying. How stupid and irritating! They obviously did not do any pre-release testing. At least Sharp included a switch so you could turn the obnoxious devil off. Now comes Microsoft.

Re: [NF] Folder encryption - need recommendations
Thanks, that is exactly what I wanted. It encrypts with 256 bit AES which is used by the government for top secret documents so should satisify Medicare and the HIPAA law. I also found axcrypt which is not what I wanted but looks like a very good program for quickly encrypting one file or one folder 'on the fly'. It integrates with explorer and is very handy. This is great to quickly encrypt a file to attach to an email and then send the password a different way: fax or tell over the phone.

Re: Former employer called today
I suggest that you should work 'by the job'. Quote a price for 1 week or
whatever time frame you estimate it will take (paid in
advance). This gives you control of your time without having to track hours and
arguing about how the time was spent. Then X amount
per day/week for any time after that (paid in advance always). After that
initial period, you could offer to work full time (if
that is acceptable - who knows, maybe they have changed) with a 6 mo/1yr
contract with minimum 90 day notice to cancel the
contract. I believe everyone should always work with a written contract. It
makes you think through some things in advance and
really helps you when you leave.

It's totally up to you. You know how sh|tty they were to you as an
employee, so do you think things will change if you try to help them?
You're not looking to be reinstated, but more along the lines of bailing
them out.
A bailout-consulting-rate should be high, in the 300/hr range.
If you suggest a prepaid retainer of 2400 for up to 8 hours of work, and
they agree to it, and you do the work - thats 2400 you didn't have before.
I'm sure you can swallow your pride for at least those 8 hours, right?
If you do step back in to that site, you already know whats going on; so
suggest you ignore 'how' they treated you prior, and suggest to *THEM* a
contract engagement (AND NOT a TEMP Employee thing).
Good luck, either way you go.
