101.5 is reporting the gutting of all the proposed property tax savings bills in Trenton. Why is this surprising? It’s business as usual for the thugs in Trenton who steal our money. It’s slavery.

TECHNOLOGY: WDSYNC backup always seems to have a new version
Monday, January 22, 2007v6.2.038
It makes the old sync unusable.
It doesn’t pick up any of the old registration information.
Interested to see what happens next week.
And, you have to drop the browser and the email.
But, it does make a complete encrypted back up.

XPfails – luggable – WORD blanks a document that I created yesterday ARGH!
Monday, January 22, 2007This is a first. WORD basically “lost” a document I created yesterday. Basically, now it has to be treated as untrustworthy. Perhaps it’s time to move to Open Office?

Hmmm, MSFT has dropped Publisher (that I liked and used). Maybe this is something I can use in its place.

TECHNOLOGY: 7ZIP choice isn’t there
Friday, January 19, 2007PCMechanic tip:
Since most files compress very well and, in turn, are faster to transfer, zipping them up makes sense. The excellent open source program 7-Zip addresses both of the issues above. When 7-Zip is installed with its context menus, you can right click on a file and inside the 7-Zip menu select Compress and Email. The result is an empty mail message with your attachment zipped up. There is no garbage subject line or text, so just fill out your email like normal.
But, I don’t see that choice!?!
