  1. Before you give up on it completely, give Nikon technical support a call. Give them the error message you're getting and see what they have to say. I agree that you're probably out of luck, but a phone call doesn't take much effort and you never know... Good luck. -- Random fortune:

  3. quote:Originally posted by RiL:How good of a GPS is the,"Etrex Legend?" Rick I love my Legend. If I were rich, I'd get something with a bigger, color screen and more memory, but for the money it can't be beat. Best value out there, IMHO. -- Random fortune:
  4. quote:Originally posted by NewportKeith:If science invented the perfect stun gun -- i.e., a weapon that disables the target but without permanently harming or killing him -- would those that currently carry regular guns be willing to switch? I don't carry (it's a Kalifornia thing), but I'd consider it a great option. As leatherman said, it's about neutralizing the threat, not taking a life. I wouldn't be willing to give up my 2nd amendment rights because of it, however. The 2nd amendment exists for reasons which are entirely separate from personal protection while walking down the street (or tromping through the woods). -- Random fortune:
  5. quote:Originally posted by seneca:I do not have a problem with guns. My problem is with people who have an irrational need to arm themselves with deadly force on a daily basis. Like cops? (see my previous post) quote:in my opinion we are dealing with irrationality, and I will never ever be able to change the minds of (or even have an influence on) those who “Carry”. So every law abiding citizen who chooses to arm themselves is irrational? That's a riot. You're right about not being to change their minds, though, because you're not willing to accept the facts and deal with your irrationalities. quote:I know many, many people who share my views, including people who post to this site. I'm sure you do - birds of a feather and all that. You'll notice, though, that there seems to be a preponderance of people that geopack. I've noticed that they're pretty much all very rational and level headed. I don't see where your statement about 'dealing with irrationality' has any basis whatsoever. quote:You get the odd naive person like Bluespreacher and Clearpath (like I was) who actually think they can have some influence in one of these discussions. Interesting - I'd consider your position to be naive.. You've formed an opinion and don't seem to be willing to change it under any circumstances, even if new information comes to light. Kinda reminds me of a politician. quote:What bugs me though, is that the result is a thread that gives the impression that everybody finds nothing wrong with “carrying”. I think you'll find that that's not entirely untrue. Just like the side of opposition, there are many supporters of people's right to bear arms who choose to remain silent the majority of the time. I'm not one of them. quote:Now go ahead, prove my point. How was that? -- Random fortune:
  6. quote:Originally posted by clearpath:It's been said before, but why let paranoia be the basis for carrying a deadly weapon? There's a difference between paranoia and preparedness. 90% of police officers say that throughout their 20 year career, they've never had to draw their gun. So should cops not be carrying? Are they just being paranoid? -- Random fortune:
  7. quote:Originally posted by Huntnlady:Yes, Texas definitely has the best gun laws, (or lack of laws,) in the nation Nope, Vermont holds that title. Texas is pretty good, though. They even issue to residents of states which don't issue concealed carry licenses. -- Random fortune:
  8. quote:Originally posted by Team GPSaxophone:Garmin came out with the http://www.garmin.com/products/iQue3600/ recently. Has anyone here tried it yet? According to Amazon.com, it's going to be released on July 1st. This item will be released on July 1, 2003. -- Random fortune:
  9. You could also do a pocket query and use something like Watcher to sort by waypoint ID. The oldest ones will have IDs like GC1054 or GC241, as opposed to something like GCF3D8. -- Random fortune:
  10. quote:Originally posted by 2ManyHobbies:I have a Legend with "Roads and Recreation" maps, I can get 90% of the State of Wisconsin downloaded on its 8mb of memory. Dang. I've got a Legend and can only get half of L.A. County loaded... -- Random fortune:
  11. I don't know about the legal aspects of the various copyright issues at hand but for the record, a cache owner can't edit a log. They can only delete or encrypt it. -- Random fortune:

  13. quote:Originally posted by Woodsters Outdoors:The ones I really detest are the ones that get big, the size of the screen, with no "close" button on them. Then you have to go out of your way to close it. If you press Alt-F4, the active window will be closed. If you do it fast enough, you can close the window before it loads the page - and the javascript which will open a window when you close that one, starting the process all over again... On popup blockers, AdSubtract is far and away the best one I've tried. I can't tell you how happy I am with it...

  14. quote:Originally posted by StarshipTrooper: (d) Any person outside the limits of or confines of any city, or outside any mining, lumbering, logging or railroad camp, located outside any city, while engaged in lawful hunting, fishing, trapping or other lawful outdoor activity; ... (g) Any person who has a valid permit from a state or local law enforcement agency or court authorizing him to carry a concealed weapon. A permit issued in another state will only be considered valid if the permit is in the licensee's physical possession." Line (d) covers a lot of territory. So does (g). -- Random fortune:
  15. I've also been having odd problems like this since Saturday or Sunday. My phone, which has had me logged in since the first time I logged in with it, had me logged out. The next page I requested had me logged in. I'm guessing that there's an error in either the cookie or the code that parses them - probably the latter. -- Random fortune:
  16. If you hide it, they will come. -- Random fortune:
  17. It seems that there's a lot of techie types here. My official title is Network Administrator, but my actual job is a one-man IT dept. I do everything from desktop PC support, product evaluation and even a little web programming for the front-ends of the products we develop. -- Random fortune:
  18. I've used this before but not in a long time. I just had it guess for "geocache" and it got "treasure chest" on the 28th question. I think that's about as close as it's going to get without nailing it. -- Random fortune:

  22. quote:Originally posted by umc:I wonder how long it takes to evolve to that nastyness that it did. "Within 24 to 36 hours, a systemic reaction may occur with the victim characterized by restlessness, fever, chills, nausea, weakness and joint pain. The affected area enlarges, becomes inflamed and the tissue is hard to the touch. The spider's venom contains an enzyme that destroys cell membranes in the wound area with affected tissue gradually sloughing away, exposing underlying tissues. Within 24 hours, the bite site can erupt into a "volcano lesion" (a hole in the flesh due to damaged, gangrenous tissue)." http://ohioline.osu.edu/hyg-fact/2000/2061.html -- Random fortune:
