    There was a time when I would have agreed with that statement without question. But I believe that certain areas of information technology turn that argument on its head. For example, I have worked for several manufacturing firms designing Manufacturing Execution Systems and Engineering Data...

    Cubic Zirconia, I think you will like John Mauldin. He is naturally an optimist, but at the same time he has a realistic view on the economy. I view Roubini as being more of a "one-trick pony".

    The Forum needs more members and more traffic

    First of all, IHB was always dead on the weekends. It's not surprising that a forum that spun off of IHB would be slow on weekends as well. Secondly, there are only two ways to increase traffic in the forum. Increased traffic has to come from some combination of increased activity from...

    Come back tmare, steppingup, and Trooper

    No, I know that yoiu weren't a moderator at IHB forums. After all, I talked about things like low taxes, limited federal government, separation of powers and other topics enough that I am quite sure that if you did have any authority I would have been slapped with fantasy TOS violations a long...

    Unfortunately the answer is that it won't end soon. I'm going to pull a few quotes from a news letter from John Mauldin. You can subscribe to this free weekly newsletter at www.frontlinethoughts.com . He won't spam your email address, though each newsletter typically contains a small pitch at...

    Come back tmare, steppingup, and Trooper

    I guess the thought of clicking on the link provided never occurred to you, has it? Well moderator, lets see if you can do your job here. You've just been provided with real hate speech. You don't even have to imagine the example in your mind as you did previously. Where is Trooper's TOS...

    Come back tmare, steppingup, and Trooper

    Roundcorners, thank you for a considered, and a considerate response. Being human, my background and experiences impact my perception and reaction to current events. I couldn't have survived the life I have lived if I were afraid to fight. Personally, when given a choice between fighting...

    IUSD needs to cut $14.7M this week

    OK, I'll bite. Can you explain to me why government budget cuts are a bad thing? As a taxpayer, I see non stop growth in government at all levels and hear an endless parade of public officials telling me that I'm not paying enough in taxes. I respectfully disagree. At the Federal level, my...

    Come back tmare, steppingup, and Trooper

    This seems like as good of thread as any to post this. During the recent flare-up over a fantasy TOS warning I received from an inept moderator, it came out that the TOS really wasn't for anything I did here, but rather for what the moderator thought I was thinking based on history at IHB...

    Foreclosure data

    I'll search a little more for you before I go to bed. But here is the first hit that I found. From http://www.lvrj.com/business/foreclosure-filings-fall-in-november-78949097.html Las Vegas, which had been No. 1 on that list for four straight months, fell to No. 5. Nevada recently adopted a...

    Foreclosure data

    If you are talking about the national numbers for NODs and foreclosures, I saw a blurb somewhere about Nevada numbers being way down because of a moratorium on foreclosures. Of course this only pushes things to the right a little. You can only kick the can so far down the road before you run...

    That was very well put TR. Thank you for sharing such uncommon sense with the community.

    Your chance to vote WINEX off the island!

    I wouldn't want anyone to accuse me of not embracing diversity.

    Your chance to vote WINEX off the island!

    That's exactly why I posted the definition of deviant for you. Now any time you feel a need to say that you aren't leading a deviant lifestyle, all you have to do is come back here and you will know that you are wrong.

    Gold prices- take a guess

    As far as I know Awgee has not joined this community. Therefore if you don't mind, I'll relay an answer that Awgee has given to me on the topic in the past. Awgee felt that the value of an ounce of gold and 1 mythical share of the Dow Jones Industrial Average would eventually meet. Whether...

    Your chance to vote WINEX off the island!

    LOL! Why would I want to hijack this or any other forum? There are people I enjoy chatting with here. Outside of this community, there is only one other internet forum that I participate in - it's an Ebay community dedicated to exposing people trying to sell counterfeit coins on Ebay for...

    Your chance to vote WINEX off the island!

    That's nice. But that has nothing to do with what this thread is about. I mentioned that the Obama "Czar of Safe Schools" has a history that includes teaching teenagers about the joy of fisting and passing out guides to leather bars in Massachusetts to high school students. A moderator...

    Your chance to vote WINEX off the island!

    This conversation might be a little more productive if you had a higher level of literacy. Let's start with the definition of the word "deviant"; From Merriam Webster's website: http://m-w.com/dictionary/deviant Main Entry: de-vi-ant Pronunciation: -ənt Function: adjective Date: 15th century...
