Sad state of affairs

When the biggest, by far, of the news outlets only reaches less than 1/3 of 1% of the public.

No wonder congress and Obama don't care what the voters think or want.

It is sad, Bruce, and that's why some here are consistantly posting fair and balanced columns in an attempt to help spread the word.... <grin>


Btw, being that MSFT stopped supporting their Windows XP o/s on 4-8-14, I had my old Dell with XP hacked via the ZDnet article that Steviee posted here last month.

A very savvy computer dude did it remotely for me and also downloaded FireFox (which I had trouble doing. DUH!) in less than 30 minutes for under $50 and, almost immediately, I rec'd 6 updates from MSFT.
Such a deal!

I now have a beautifully running Windows XP POSReady (2009) o/s which will be fully supported until 2019.

I mention this to you, Bruce, only as a possible means for you to make some extra $$$ with your computer building skills/endeavors.

Any other XP users out there who wowuld like to talk to my computer dude can email me ( [e-mail] ). Being that he can do the hack/upgrade remotely (with just a minimum of help from you), your location isn't germane to the issue.
