What an obnoxious response.

I didn't say the application was crap, and I understood that it was a beta and what a beta is, thank you. I wrote nothing in my post about knowing or not knowing what GTD is.

I described in detail, and not very harshly, what I found to be uTodo's drawbacks, concluded with "fair enough" etc, then decribed another application that I found, and found useful.

In reponse to this, you wrote:

Bill, i recommend to search for "simple GTD software" and try other applications and tell us what do you think, there are many application more simple

Right. So from this I can conclude mostly that you don't actually read what you're slamming, which is far more obnoxious than anything anyone here wrote, if you ask me.

I've used lots of betas and having the uninstall not included would seem worth mentioning, IMO. That's just me perhaps, but it would seem something they might want to know about. And yes, I found the bug report in the help eventually.

I think is the idea.

Not that any one sentence can paraphrase a good multi-panel cartoon (despite what someone above said). If it could, we wouldn't need the cartoon.

The hypnotized masses worry about giant embryonic stem cells flying in to eat scientists alive for having dared alter Mother Nature (since of course, in Biblical times no one ever modified crops by cross breeding, they just ate fruit off of God's trees while riding on dinosaurs.)

Reality turns out to have had a different movie in mind. Don't look now, but we have met Godzilla and he was wearing a pin striped suit.

It seems the only reason for you to subscribe to Salon is to bring up Republican talking points in response to articles posted here.

Seriously, why do you pay subscription fees to a website that you so consistently disagree with?

Don't forget that Salon publishes Camille Paglia. What right wing Republican extremist wouldn't agree with her articles? They love her.

So basically

All the far left calls for the end of the world are just overblown entertainment and nothing is as bad as they would have you believe.

Thanks for spelling that out.

Right, like the far-left Hank Paulson, he of "it's the worst crisis since the great Depression! We must act now!" Or the far-left Ben Bernanke, et al, all of whom called for emergency bailouts because things were so dire.

Thanks for pointing that out. Enjoy backwards land, I'm going back to the regular world now, where those guys are actually pretty conservative.

Right, because the computer won't do anything without a browser, just like a car without wheels.

A car without wheels is useless. You could sit in it and reve the engine (if you put it up on blocks) but it wouldn't do any of the things a car is built to do.

A computer can do spreadsheets and word processing and editing and calculating and run about 90% of the programs that it was built to run, all without a Web browser.

Well, okay these days maybe not 90% but somewhere up there. The point is that you're really thinking of some sort of "web browsing machine" with an analogy like that, not a computer. While those actually exist, or are being talked about, it's not a good description of most computers currently.

It's a long complicated issue which we won't solve here but my point is just that that's a really bad analogy which won't get us anywhere.

To return to your question: Sure, I could imagine buying a computer without a Web browser, and no, that wouldn't feel the same as buying a car that had no wheels. To be obliged to go and download one of many free browsers so my computer can surf the Web is not at all the same as being obligated to buy and add wheels so my car can do anything.

What Obama said was stupid - not simply a gaffe or effort at self-depreciation. It shows yet again that this guy has a problem with how he sees the rest of "us" and that clearly he thinks he is better.

Because he made a joke making fun of his bad bowling skills?

Sigh.

I don't even get the offense here, special olympics give handicapped people an opportunity to compete. Obama's tiny joke was about how he's so bad at bowling that they had to make accomodation for him. Bad choice of words I suppose, but yeesh.

Especially to turn this into him acting "superior" at something, which is exactly backwards..

Oy.

Salon is such a den of extremists. The amount of Glenn Beck-style right wingers in the letters section is really depresisng. I blame Paglia, she draws them like flies.
