Oh, please....
Get yourself a better email service...for free. Try out www.fastmail.fm . Even the free accounts will bring your hotmail to you. You can choose to leave it on their servers, or bring into your local machine. Still free. Paid for accounts are even more powerful and more flexible.
Who else then? Fascists at Microsoft who want you to know you’re oppressed? I’ve heard worse LOL.
Thank you. I have Outlook Express and SBC but I’ve been using Hotmail for so many years now. For professional purposes, I would use one of my other services.
Just a love of old airplanes and my own ideas of what I wanted to do with them.Oh and pure dumb luck.
I'll go with your other option.
You mention the whole issue of ‘tax-payer’ vs dependent of tax-payer.
In my class, I get this argument once and a while, “I pay taxes!” I then calmly ask the student how much he or she pays in property taxes a year, personally.
I then get, “Well, my momma...”
To wit I reply, “I don’t teach your momma. How much do YOU pay in taxes?”
Of course I get no answer.
If I do get an answer, I then point out the fact that my family has extensive land holdings in the county, and as such pay a larger portion of taxes so therefore, I pay more of my own salary than you do.
That usually shuts them up.:)
Try that one day in class. But back to the point, you are correct. The issue was not one of using Firefox, the issue was one of violation of computer policies. I agree with the teacher on this one.
