considering most of the people in the main office don't know their butts from a hole in the ground, I'm not worried. Somebody in this office might notice though.

Fair enough, I don't find any problem with that, but that's just me.

I don't mind google at all....they provide a free service getting yout the information you need (and I don't care if you like them or not they are one of if not the best at it). and all they do is keep track of their searches...they don't even record the ISP of the searches AFAIK

I hereby declare a holiday.

I'm going to back up a bunch of stuff today because my computer hates life and wants to die.

Coward.

Anyways, it's tedious, and I should probably sleep at some point.

I use Firefox at home, started using Chrome at work, until <i>they</i> find out and make me uninstall it. I like both, but Firefox has started with these annoying popups that squeek, I think I need to do something.

My work was IE, and they told us nothing else would work because the servers are routed through Albany or something like that, however, I had to download Google Earth to check out some inspection sites before I go out there in person and Google Chrome got downloaded with and it works. So I am using it.

If I go to a site that shows where your feed is coming from, it shows that I am coming from Albany. So that part is not made up. The GIS guy (he's a real geek) told me I could use another browser, I would just have to copy the proxy server from IE and paste, evidently Google Chrome did that. IDK, and IDC, as long as it works.
