And it appears the rampant over dramatization and over stating of each
side continues...
JeffDC, i know his hard for you to believe, but there are many in this country
who are real americans and love this country that will no longer just Take
what spews out the war mongering propaganda machine call ed the Bush administration..
For that fact, it could be the Clinton administration.
Look.. Iraq has taught us that, trying to impose our will aka capitalism,
does not work. Not in the y2k
nor did it work in 70s. Counntries like Iraq like the Strong Man concept..
Now, back to Chavez. He is a hereo to millions of people. The only news you
get about chavez is on the 6:00 oclock news. Do some real research and you'll
be surprise about what you'd find out about this man.
Let's face it, you gotta have pretty big balls to take on the US ..

Since people are free to say what they want, is Whity the blue eyed devil
free to say the N word? Is that Ok? Or are there some lines you shouldn't
cross? Are you just pissed or can you actually see my point? I believe
there some things you just don't say!
By the way, the immigration point I was trying to make is, the middle class
is being killed off. It's not a race thing. The things you have work so
hard for will be given away. There won't be a middle class for you and I
to be part of! This could happen.

>Hey, it's working here under xp just fine. Latencies didn't change under 4.6,
however, the Helios plug, as well as the Neve plugs (the more rokbust versions)
and the Precesion plugs all have latencies that are more than the "standard"
amount (which is still the same) for the 1176, LA2A, Fairchild, etc. They
are also different from plug to plug. A couple of the have the same latency.
I'm not in front of my rig right now, and I don't know them off the top of
my head. But the 4.6 works, and the Helios sounds great. I can't prove this,
but 4.6 seem more stable that the previous version (under Paris).
