  2. May not be what you are looking for, but...

  3. I haven't put BB money down for a long time... probably over 25 years, but this is a sure thing. I need to know who to send my $5 too as well. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy
  4. They have been very stable for quite some time. Alti-2 has a track record of providing bug fixes quickly. Personally I like mine a lot. Of course everyone has their own preferences so you will get other opinions. FYI they recently updated their website. Check it out.

  5. The typical response from any authority when accused... Deny, deny, deny. Not the first time its been seen and won't be the last. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy
  6. I bet it makes no difference to her or any other Slyride supporter. A thief will steal from their mother and never think anything of it. Explains why Slyride supporters don't see anything wrong with their business practices. They really don't see anything wrong with what they are doing, hence the reason all Slyride threads are so long. You can't talk someone into growing a conscious. No amount of discussion will ever succeed. Skyride will continue as long as it is profitable. The process they have scales up & down very easily, it costs very little to have an 800 number and you can run a call center with as few as one agent. Keep up the good fight getting DZs to stop accepting their certificates, its the only way to force Slyride to shrink. Maybe one day it will be more trouble to maintain than it is worth. When that happens they will stop, but not before. They think there is nothing wrong with what they do. They are thieves and will steal from their mothers.

  12. It may not be them. The site shows at the bottom that their website is managed by this company http://www.kingdommedia.ie/ and that company's site says they are closed till Jan. 11th. So Deepseed may be open, but their website people are not there to update things. If someone has another way to contact them other than their website...

(AP) — The Air Force Academy's parachute demonstration team will drop into the Rose Bowl before the BCS championship game carrying an American flag and the game ball. The 6-person team will parachute into the stadium in Pasadena, Calif., before the 6 p.m. MST start on Thursday. The team will also be carrying the coin used for the pre-game toss and flags representing the Bowl Championship Series and the two teams, Texas and Alabama. The drop team will include four cadets, all seniors at the school, and two staff members. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy
  14. Thanks for the offer but I think I am OK now. Found an old version of the Ethernet controller driver and the computer is happy with that. Taking it slow an only loading essential stuff. So far no blue screens of death and I have turned off automatic restarts on error so if it does happen it will be obvious. I am sure that Norton did this so I loaded Microsoft Security Essentials. Yes I know there are lots of choices that people will think are better... "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy
  15. My son's laptop started acting acting funny (blue screens of death with error code indicating that drivers needed updating/memory had problems, etc) after he updated the version of Norton 360 he was running on it (yes, I know not a good idea, it will never happen again, much better choices out there). Used Ultimate Boot CD for Windows and ran a variety of tests - memory checks out fine, so does the drive and every other test I ran on it. The computer runs absolutely fine and forever when booted from that disk, I have let some tests literally run for days. We got all the data off it, so going back to factory settings seem like a good idea, but he couldn't find the original restore CD. Tried a variety of things and decided to re-install Windows Home XP. Thing boots up fine until I load any of the drivers I download from the Acer site... then it keeps freezing. My bet is that if he could find the original restore CD the world would be fine, but so far no luck finding it. Acer site says it is no longer available from them. Does anyone have a restore CD for an Acer Aspire 5610 model number BL50?

  18. Just tested with IE instead of Chrome. I could get a message to go with real content, but could not get a message with just "test" to go. "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy
  19. I don't usually use dz.com email but tried sending an email to my normal account and it refuses to send. Tried multiple times, with real content not just the word test, and every time I tried I got a message that my email was "detected as spam" and not sent.

  20. Here's another, by the same guy. HW Could it be related to this... "Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops, that's where you'll find me" Dorothy
  21. For the most part dropzones, like any other institution, are inhabited by reasonable people who deal with issues in a reasonable fashion. Unfortunately not all people are reasonable. My personal guess is that 5% of any group of people are jerks. Doesn't matter if its at a dropzone or a church. I am not judging who was in the wrong. It could be that the "other" jumper is a danger to himself and others, or it could be tandem master was way out of line. If you are uncomfortable at that dropzone find another one. There are lots of good places jump.
