actually, not female. sorry to burst your bubble that a guy would say "ewwww gross!". But I don't think that looking that close at a *picture* would be that interesting. Looking that close at the *subject* of the picture would be only slightly less appealing. I'd rather be *in* the subject!

I'm not arguing that ultra close ups of femaleness don't lose their appeal after you hit the age of 12 ( they do ), but you're saying that you prefer the lights off all the time ? That's taking it a bit far, IMO. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

wondering how far from or over the kid sister rule we are... I never had a kid sister.... Well, I could say he could try marriage, then it's don't look, don't touch. ;) but I do recognize mine was the exception, not the rule. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

How are things going with the missus now, CG?

[Cheshire] I can't afford those plastic things to cover the electric sockets so I just draw bunny faces on the electric outlets to scare the kids away from them... [RLtim] Newsflash! Kids aren't afraid of bunnies. [Cheshire] Oh they will be... -Bash.org

Swimmingly, thanks. I'm not sure why, but it's feast or famine at my place, there doesn't appear to be an average position. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

It was DEFINATELY not right, but there were a lot of issues, mostly post natal depression that just turned to hell, and to be honest, after 6 months without sex, I stopped doing anything constructive about it.

ah, but what was omitted was...although it is one bit wide, you need a recording device with 'advanced' perpendicular recording technology[^] and a vertical bit density of 30Tb :laugh: Steve

There are no rules, and yes, such things do happen and others. Some get better, some get worse. When there is cooperation and willingness to work through issues, almost anything can be managed. Without that... anything gets worse. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau. Talk about things of tomorrow and the mice in the ceiling laugh. (Japanese Proverb)

Sorry, it was meant to be light hearted. No looking, no touching, yet second child? My lame attempts at a joke just don't go over too well in text:sigh:

Sounds something like right out of Star Trek. Cool concept. ------------------------------- DEBUGGING : Removing the needles from the haystack.

Simple, its just a collections of 1s and 0s right? Well since the 0s really have no value you can just discard them. That just leaves the ones and you really don't need that much redundancy so you can just discard all but one and viola you have compressed 30 TB to 1 bit Matt Newman

Get a good deal on USB 2.0 Harddrives (don't use Maxtor), stack them to a tower, stick together with duct tape, apply some spray paint to make it look more professional. Hire a guy who remembers what goes on which disk, and un- and replugs the USB cable on demand. :rolleyes: Now I read the other uys suggestions. Do you already have any idea about the Possible storage media? Required lifetime of the data?
