No worries, I'll chase Dave up and blame Maunder for your link failing.

I'm not even going to follow the link, just finished reading it 25 - 30 minutes ago. I knew he was a Yank casue he was studying Math at the Bachelor Degree level, then a bit later he was a reporter for the New York Times.
It was meant to get funnier as the discussion went on, but it was actually like watching those failed reality TV show auditions, painful and nauseating.

I thought that too.

Spookily, mine arrived in a Jiffy bag from Farnell (a v2!) this morning. Nothing like the wait described by others, though it did take a few weeks (that's due to a production line starting in Wales). I've got it all going with bits I had about the place, and I have xbmc on it. It plays more stuff, smoother than my xbox 360 does, and I even coontrolled the whole thing from my phone.
And it's silent! (except the audio...)
Rather nifty, I reckon.
Very tempted to get more now, and find other jobs...

Yeah, I read about the v2 and the new Made in the UK notice since they started making them in a Sony factory in Wales.I'm hoping for a v2 which will take ages to get to Australia, I reckong I'll get a v1 that is already here in Australia that'll still take a couple of weeks to get here.

Alas, Andrew Murray has won a Grand Slam Tournament, and thus he is irrevocably British.
What was most surprising was that he actually smiled in the post match interview.
Is he unwell?
Regardless, well done to the dour Scot Brit.

Poor bugger. Why would you wish that on his career?
Still, it'll only last until he next loses Wimbledon. 2013, would be my guess...

He only plays Wimbledon as a Scot.
If he played as a Briton, he'd win easy.

An Anti-Semite, walks into a bar and is about to order a drink when he sees a guy close by wearing a jewish cap, a prayer shawl, and traditional locks of hair.
He doesn't have to be an Einstein to know that this guy is Jewish.
So he shouts over to the bartender so loudly, that everyone can hear, "Drinks for everyone in here, bartender, but not for that Jew over there.”
Soon after the drinks have been handed out, he notices that the Jewish guy is smiling and waving to him and says 'Thank You' in an equally loud voice, so that everyone can hear.
This infuriates the Anti-Semite and in a loud voice, he once again orders drinks for everyone except the Jew.
But as before, this does not seem to worry the Jewish guy who continues to smile, and again says, "Thank you."
So the guy asks the barman, "What's the hell is the matter with that Jew? I've ordered two rounds of drinks for everyone in the bar except for him, and all that the silly bugger does is to smile and thank me in such a loud voice. Is he nuts?"
"Nope," replies the bartender. "He owns this place."

It's appalling; I spent the evening disputing fraudulent reports on my record form Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax, and it took only one evening. That's just wrong! Given that the apparent goal of these agencies seems to be to make people's lives as complicated and miserable as possible, someone obviously screwed up by creating a process whereby one can accomplish a 30 minute job in as little as 4 hours, when - properly planned and coordinated - the process could be extended to fill several days and nights. Somebody goofed, obviously!
I found two old accounts, both closed ten years ago or so - I forget - still being reported as new as various collection agencies keep trading the paper back and forth. Both were utility accounts I cancelled while still current when I was last laid off, but who continued to bill me for services I requested to be turned off. I refuse to pay for unordered merchandise or services, and always will.
It should be interesting to watch what happens with these disputes, as I've never tried it before. The reporting agencies are legally required to remove disputed reports unless the reporting creditor positively affirms the claim, and then only if the original date of default is less than ten years ago. In Arizona, the statute of limitations prohibits any collections efforts after only 4 years.
Another odd thing I found tonight was that there are multiple aliases associated with my name, along with addresses where I've never lived, and valid addresses with dates of residence off by a decade or more. I wonder where they get those bits of erroneous data? I've never used any alias but my own name for any purpose other than online social sites, and none of those show up in the report. It's a curious world out there in Cyberland...

Is that federal? My question is that I have $6000 in student loans that I paid off, but my college never reported to credit agencies as paid. I have the receipt from college, too. Any idea of best way to dispute and force the agency to do the ground work of confirming? I also have some minor sh*t on there I wouldn't mind disputing.

Yes, in the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The drag is that you have to dispute a false report with each agency separately.

For some reason, only one agency reports it. So it might be easier to clean up.

Hi
I'm hoping to set up a system similar to Google Adwords that allows
other sites to extact a limited amount of data from my site, and
display it as part of their webpage. Google use a javascript file:
show_ads.js with parameters.
Can anyone explain how the .js file works? In particular how does it
output HTML back to the calling site, and how does it access the
parameters?

I've got an idea! Why not try posting this in the Web Development Forum? That would be a novel approach, and just might work!
