Fantastic, time for me to leave my music library behind for the umpteenth time and move to greener music platforms. You failed me Hovito, just as Grooveshark, Napster, iTunes and many others did before you.

I don't see it as offensive, but it is an awkward and heavyhanded use of language which is why it drew attention. 'The Gentleman CFO' would sound weird as well.

Not really... traditionally, lady is the feminine equivalent of lord, both of which are technically granted titles. That said, no CFO would likely complain if you called them 'the Lord CFO'... it does have a nice ring to it. '

Outlook already has a social connector. I find it useful actually, I can quickly see a job title and company even if they do not include a signature. I think this would also be pretty useful in other Office apps. When using Track Changes in

Can you back up that figure please? I truly doubt 99.9% of hunters worldwide (you didn't qualify it) or even in the west hunt for 'luxury.' How long have you spent in a rural locale?

Hunting is more ethical, cheaper and also more convenient for those living in remote locations than purchasing meat at a supermarket. Consider the cost of airlifting food to remote communities in Nunavut and you will understand the need. h

The argument for needing encryption is very similar to the argument for needing firearms (without getting into the veracity of that need), so you've made a great comparison here. One could argue that firearms for personal defense and e

He does actually. He mentions specifically a hunting scenario and the need to use a powerful weapon and also the ability to quickly issue a follow-up shot if the animal is only wounded, which is a humane action. Just clarifying the point of

Welp, I upgraded from the previous version and I cannot open my connection file with this new version. I may be an uncommon user because I have an encrypted connection file. Just a warning to existing users who may be upgrading.

The US measures unemployment differently, you're right. Which one is a more accurate measure however is up for debate. Given the higher US poverty rate, lesser social services and lower minimum wage, I don't think underemployment

It's not at all arguable, by definition each instance of a commodity is equivalent. Each CEO's value is not equivalent, nor is the music on any CD or each degree program available at every university.
