    ironic to pass up.

    This site is horribly laden with ads, and the actual text is written poorly and difficult to follow. I feel less intelligent after reading just that one page of text.

    Okay, I have a modem and a computer. How come I can't see anything?

    Give the student a break. He needed the images on his far wall to distract him in between phone calls from computerless graduate students asking for their e-mail to be read aloud.

    And does he read the emails in a sexy voice?

    Sure you do.

    I guess "a lot" of money is technically relative. I do automated trading for a hedge fund in NY. I'd be willing to bet most people here would consider my salary to be quite a lot.

    Ah yes..., right up there with the old one about a support tech asking the user to send him a copy of the floppy disk that was apparently causing problems and a minute later the fax machine comes to life and spits out an image of a 5.25" floppy disk!

    Or, the user who asks whether a 5.25" floppy drive can read 8" disks and support tech, being witty, responds with "Yes, if you fold it just right." I believe that call was soon followed by another one on how to remove a folded 8" floppy disk jamming a 5.25" drive slot!

    Someone You Know:
    Usually when someone says "needless to say", he means "this is obvious to me, and if you have half a brain in your head it will be obvious to you too, but I'm going to say it anyway because I need to allow for the possibility that you do not have the aforementioned half a brain without directly insulting your intelligence."
    But usually when someone says "needles to say" to me, they proceed to say something that was not at all obvious, so...

    Oooooh!

    Never mind.

    Someone should design a system where you can call an "email" to someone, and the recipient could just plug their phone into where the modem goes, and hear the message in real-time.

    Unfortunately that would probably require a huge voice network infrastructure...unique addresses for everyone connected to it...undersea cabling...But hey, give it fifty years.

    Speaking of retard support, I should learn how to remember to quote people. My first comment was to this:
    Myrmidon:
    D.T. North should have explained to the computerless caller that he'd reached the 'Tech support' number and that what he needed was 'Text support'.

    Ah, but this is so a job for the Rasterbator:
