    Scientists Re-Create Big Bang in Lab

    If the universe is infinite (not known) than the observable universe might only constitute a tiny fraction of it. Why do we generalize the observable expansion of galaxies to apply to the entire universe, perhaps largely unseen, which for all we know could contain multiple big...

    is this the way to move ipod music to a new pc??

    no, the point was how to get music off an iPod since the main music library was lost when a drive failed. I think it turns out to be easy to get the music back from an iPod, but getting the artwork back is a different matter.

    is this the way to move ipod music to a new pc??

    Thanks for the link. I decided to buy another external HDD (not Seagate!) and used the technique I posted. It preserves the music and id3 tags but not the album art when importing into iTunes. That probably could be hacked further but I'm calling it a day. For now.

    Verizon Bills Family $18k For Cell Phone Use

    When this happens, a flag should go up at the company; any computer can tell when usage charges are extraordinary, and they should have the courtesy to alert the consumer. Even credit card companies alert the holder if unusual charges are seen. But they don't do this. So I say....I...

    I have visited PI three times; as a child, in high school, and just 3 years ago. Nothing beats the food there, and the people are happy and friendly. Good times...;)
