RE: Airplanes and idiots:It's been proven that you can *waltz* through American security even after 9/11 with:
- A katana
- Machete
- Enough gunpowder to press your own 100 round magazine. Now, add in 3 tennis balls and a roll of electrical tape.
- 2 lbs of C4 ( shaped as/in your flipflops... which are on your feet in plain sight)
- some other random crap I can't remember off the top of my head but was a 'wtf' type of thing.
So, to the whole 'security' crap... Please. Take the money we're spending on 'security', hire two air marshals per plane, and let's move on with life.
I prefer the Bunker Solution[/u].

which stopped happening 11 years ago) because US immigration control has deteriorated to the point where no-one in his right mind wants to travel to the USA anywayTell me about it. It's about the worst part of each trip - 20 questions, let's see if we can trip you up, how much can we sneer at you - fairly closely followed by the joys of leaving again.
Don't worry, we treat ourselves just about as horribly. I'm not looking forward to the travel part of my vacation later this month, what with airport "security" and all that.
I take the train from Boston to Richmond rather than fly just because of that in part.
I looked into taking the train instead of flying, because of that. Would even save me about $20 on the round-trip costs. The problem is, I'd be at my destination for approximately 1 1/2 hours before I'd had to get on the return train and come back, since I've only got a week off this time. I decided I'm just not that into spending the whole vacation on a train. :hehe:
Yeah, I've looked into some other trips by train and they just don't make sense. Fortunately, the trip to Richmond from here takes around the same as driving with no traffic, which makes it ideal for holiday travel.
Stefan, I assume you're talking Richmond VA? Out of curiosity, how long is the train ride, and how much is it costing? (I have a son 2 hrs from Boston in Groton, Ct. Might be a nice way to visit.)
Yep, Richmond, VA. It takes around 10-12 hours which is around the drive time. It should be 8-10 for Groton, I think. It does take longer when senior citizens get into fist fights and they have to wait at a station for police to take them off the train, but that doesn't happen all that often.
From Boston it is around $150. If you take an overnight train, it can be as low as $70.

I love it when a plan comes together.Lynn, you're mean. I love it! 😀
That's what I get for posting using my CrackBerry!
Whew! I realized after posting that someone might post "Pitty the fool!". Glad I escaped that one!
I've been going through Airwolf and A-Team with my kids. Loads of fun and good memories.

I posted a question here as I don't want to immediately presume upon my participation in this thread to get answers. However, no-one has responded and as it is late on a Friday I'm hoping someone here will take pity on me and take a look.
Basically what I need to know is, can non-pimary filegroups be toggled back and forth between read_write and read_only without consequence?

PANIC! DISASTER! (Insert Celkoesque disdainful comment here.) NO! TERRIBLE!
It violates something, somewhere, that's certain to result in the destruction of civilization as we know it. (Wait, that might be a good thing .... hold on a minute while I think that through ....)
Or you can look at my actual answer in the thread with the question. Either way. 😛

Awesome, thanks! I'm working on the algorithm for what will replace "civilization as we know it" and will make the change as soon as that's done.

Of course, all of this assumes we actually have some personal familiarity with civilization, which is dubious on this planet.

That's where the "as we know it" comes in. We're getting there, but it is a slow process.

What is this "civilization" thing you speak of? Is it a new type of sandwich?
