Not at all - if that is what you see, you miss the point entirely. Some udoubtedly read what I post and immediately assume that I am anti-US - that's simply not the case at all - in fact, it's quite the reverse: "The citizen who thinks he sees that the commonwealth's political clothes are worn...

"It is painful enough to discover with what unconcern they speak of war and threaten it. I have seen enough of it to make me look upon it as the sum of all evils" - Major General T. J. Jackson, 1862 "He who is the author of war lets loose the whole contagion of hell and opens a vein that...

It may well not be found in any books .... however whether it (and everything else you posted in this last post from which the above quote is taken from) is or not, is entirely irrelevant to the point I was making - it's just not significant to the entirety of the circumstances we find ourselves...

Indeed. One would assume that in a country which espouses the ideals that All Men Are Created Equal, and have A Right to Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit of Happiness that these fundamental truths would inform and guide our foreign policy and affairs with others. Sadly, they don't. While it is...

Likely not - how involved has the US been in say ....... Iceland ? Or ..... in Gabon ? Or in ..... ad infinitum ...... :rolleyes: Perhaps another fine example where ill-advised, misinformed, disingenuous and double-dealing US foreign policy (circa 1940's: the Cairo, Yalta, and Potsdam...

Read the fine print (footnotes) linked below ... maybe something there to be learned (besides just revisionist history ..... or ...... government-sanctioned propaganda): The 1941 De Facto Embargo on Oil to Japan: A Bureaucratic Reflex - The Pacific Historical Review, Vol. 44, No. 2. by Irvine...

.... not exactly ..... you need to look a lot farther back than Carter .... read the links I posted in the other thread about CIA (and British) involvement in Iran and the overthrow of their government ..... as but one example of the more fundamental issues ... it goes back further than Carter...

Loaded out of Timberwood, NC this afternoon, bound for Sterling Heights, MI. US 58 up to I-77 in VA ..... not one I would really recommend ...... particularly at night, and after the recent weather (they were calling for black ice formation - glad I was going up rather than coming down it) At...

Dunno really ... but what do you think: I just might :D I hope that is not the case, for all our sakes. I have seen rates on load offers from my carrier fluctuate and trend both up and down over periods of time (week to week, month to month, quarter to quarter) ... actually they vary from...

Yup, knew that - you've mentioned it before. And I'm quite sure that there is absolutely no chance that any of them are being misleading or inaccurate in their representations to you ..... being the fine, honest folks that they are ... not that they would have a possible interest in doing so...

Well, it is pretty much GSM everywhere else (World Marketshare: GSM 80%+, CDMA 10%+) - but that's not to say there aren't CDMA based carriers elsewhere as you rightly state. Attached below is a world coverage map for GSM from GSMA (the GSM trade group) ....... I'd post one from CDG, the CDMA...

Revolutionary product that spawned a new category of electronic devices: the personal digital assistant or PDA, employed some very cool handwriting recognition technology (Inkwell) All praise to the Newton for that smartphone you are using. BTW, you can still get software to interface one with...

Same to ya ..... Sorry - but I have never gone there - I there is no way I possibly could - because I know that would be untrue. However, just as you are tired of the above, I am tired of the "America-can-do-no-wrong" crowd - those who refuse to take an honest look - and engage in a rational...

"It is truly unfortunate that those engaged in public affairs so rarely make notes of transactions passing within their knowledge. Hence history becomes fable instead of fact. The great outlines maybe true, but the incidents and colouring are according to the faith and fancy of the writer." -...

Gee .... first off, you also don't see Canada being targeted wholesale for terrorist attacks like we are ..... (gee - wonder if there is any correlation there ? :rolleyes:) - and that is despite the fact they have participated in activities in regard to the War on Terror. Most likely it is...

That's right - it wasn't the broker that actually decided to award the load to a specific company - it was entirely Bolt's fault. I believe they alone surely must be single-handedly responsible for decreased rates in the entire transportation industry ..... :rolleyes: Seriously - maybe you...

Heheheh ..... musta been the girl that mis-marked my cup and caused the barrista at Target to make it with non-fat instead of whole milk ? (grumpy old 'tard ain't I ? :p) I'm sure that's true in some instances .... although I can say in my case it really wasn't ...... I didn't adopt until...

Now that's pretty funny .... :D

They all suck ..... by which I mean: they all drop calls. By what measure - that they sold so many ? Real fan of the free market eh ? "Forced ....." ... what a crack up ..... As elaborated by Mssr. Berry - they don't, and so, won't .... ...... ahhh ...... really profound there Greg...

At the J in Kenly, NC after dropping my load a little early (was scheduled for Monday morning :D) ..... no snow here.
