But that is a weakness of software developers, I guess they don't have anything to justify their existence if their software is simply out there doing what it is supposed to do with no problems. I guess it is less effort to "tweak" existing software, even if that makes it worse, than to develop something entirely newkootcoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11344208424209840730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-28648567972094960322013-01-26T08:36:19.463-08:002013-01-26T08:36:19.463-08:00Fixed now Koot--

At that time Nettleton came out in support of CC, which I must admit gobsmacked me. But I guess once one believes in one fairytale, others are easier to accept.<br /><br />I would like to be able to assume that those who profess a faith in Jesus would at least also have integrity and in his case either integrity has taken leave or the old brain cells just don't work too good. To come full circle from being driven from the party and the province for not buying into the rip offs of BC Hydro and BC Rail to this faith in Christy Clark the Filipena is simply stunning. Paul was the only critic on BC Rail back in the day......<br /><br />I think Christy should buy into the cooked up phone in or online poll at CKNW that puts the libs twenty points above the dippers and call an election now while her numbers are so good, oh yeah, I guess those PABlum types can't vote in the election as often as they can on CKNW.kootcoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11344208424209840730noreply@blogger.com
