  2. Ever see the movie Dr. Zhivago? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059113/

    Thus my name. Thus my philosophy.

    Not quite, Barth. I believe that problem is also related, behaviorally, to the "tragedy of the commons".

    Not long ago I made a personal note to see this movie, after a google search for the the "greatest movies of all time". Regrettably, iTunes does not yet offer it.

  5. Netflicks does. Or if your're able and have enough storage most Bit Torrent sites will serve your needs.

    Netflix requires either home delivery of the media, or some kind of hardware attached to one's PC, is that right?

  7. Yes...or you can have it on your home A/V system on your network and then order anything you wish from your remote control. Whatever... just see the movie.

  8. So Barth...any word on that Section 1402 that you were speaking of?

  9. Well, Doc, no........I read a synopsis from a Bloomberg or IBD article which referenced that Section. I have read through the entire Section 1400 and did not see it. However, there are numerous articles substantiating the increase in taxes for HI people as I have stated in my previous post.

    I give you one such link here

    Edit: I found everything except the Medicare tax bump. which is referenced in multiple articles, so the bill must reference in an un-cypherable way!

  10. 1) :)re section 1402) Then why the hell did you bring it up if you know no specifics?

    2) I reject any link from any congressman from texas. It's like reading a post from aaa. Long on focus group phrases and short on reason.

    Try again later.

    EDIT: I'm not trying to embarrass you...but you do of course understand the concept of sheltering sufficient income as to be below the levels in which any additional taxes may accrue?
