That's an interesting idea. How much does tempering help guard against breakage? Althought I don't seem to drop stuff around my chair now that I think about it.

Poor ol' Mackie. Can't stand to be wrong so often, has to accuse me of lies in the Jokes Thread, LOL.

Ain't happening, the USA is not gonna trade Iraq for half a dozen bases for 5 years. Geez RH, I thought you were smarter than Wallyworld & Co. Now if the Sunnis (Sunnies?) or any other group of the terrorists decide to give up and join the government, it's likely they could win some...

I see BDS is alive and well, perhaps some of you should explore cognitive dissonance (from the trader's perspective, not the shrink's - search ET), it might help your trading. Come Tuesday, we'll be in pretty much the same position in Iraq. And then I'll post a few "I told ya so"s. As a...

I'd vote, but I'm an idiot. I thought rates would have been higher a year ago - so my opinion ain't worth nothin.

Uhm, lemme get this straight. Shortly after the President goes on Nationwide TV and gives a massively public speech about how we need to stay the course in Iraq, you and Reardon are ready to buy into the idea he's letting the country fall back into Saddam's henchman's hands? Are you guys...

Sometimes breaking up is hard to do.

Double down at 10366. ;)

If you don't want it bad enough to do it, why should anybody else?

It's fun to watch calls being made on ET. :)

Dang, so much for that idea. Can I write off the expenses as a failed business venture? ;)

Talk about comparing apples & oranges, yikes. Comparing the bubble in gold to tech bubble? Or to the Japanese. . . uhm. . . what the heck is that anyway? It's not the Nekkia or whatever the big Japanese average is, the guy clearly cherry picked a couple of charts to show what he wanted. I...

Man, that looks way better than these #@*&& plastic ones I have. I hate these things. My chair always puts imprints in them, and rolls back to that position, rather than a new spot I picked, they slide around after a while, and I have to reposition them. Sometimes I smack my foot into a...

Start a thread. Baron reads the board, I don't need to pass it on. It's called "Empowerment" ;).

If you like the idea, why not make the list yourself? It'd certainly make a stronger argument to Baron to implement the list if you present it to him already made. Not that I am promising anything, mind you.

Standard Casters: Standard casters work well on most standard office carpets. If you plan to use this chair EXCLUSIVELY on carpets with a tight weave, standard casters are the best choice. Hardwood Casters: The special hardwood casters are covered in rubber. They won't move too fast on hard...

I've got a mat on carpeting, but mine doesn't do that. When nobody is in it, I can just fit my index finger under it and above the mat. It's hard to tell, but it looks like it stays the same height when I sit in it. EDIT: IIRC I ordered carpet rollers on mine. I bet you have regular...

I like mine, although the armrest-swivel-to-the side is a bit looser than I'd like. But I sure wouldn't be surprised to see decent quality knock-offs for far less.

Problem is just that. Factoring in rising prices and what behaviors that will curtail and produce. It's not going to be where oil is $70 a barrel on Tuesday, and on Friday we're all out, even if the fatalistic fanatics are right for once in their lonely, miserable lives. If we are running...

Thanks for the clarification. Does "effectively unrecoverable" really mean that, or do you mean unrecoverable at less than say $100 a barrel?
