"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."

If we have terrorists bombing election posts all over the place, well, I guess that we have worse problems than who gets elected anyway.

I don't see why they would worry about it. The price was 80.00 on eBay at first - I cuold not give my invites away to my friends at that time. Now the invites are going for about a buck each - and that is barely enough to cover listing fees. dmv wrote: ] ] According to Google's new policy, altered Monday, the Web ] ] search company prohibits Gmail subscribers from selling, ] ] trading or transferring the free e-mail accounts "for any ] ] unauthorized commercial purpose."

Not only did they bill people double - they took money out of their bank accounts and charged the double bills to their credit cards. They seem very slow at trying to fix things - and I've heard rumors that a class action suit has been filed against them. eBay's Accounting Glitch Leaves Users paying Double |

eBay implemented new accounting software in late Feb, early March of 2004. Many users, as high as 8 out of 10 by reports on their community boards, have been overbilled. Some users have been double billed with money being deducted from their checking accounts and billed to their credit cards that they did not really owe. Today, at least 2 users reported that their current statements are showing that they owe eBay $9,223,372,036,854.78. |
