Yes. Obama made quite a stink about Bush's use of the Executive Order....at least until he became president and now of course, he uses it just like Bush did and it is yet to be determined if he will use it more. The all time winner for most usage is none other than FDR, one of Obama's heroes.

[quote who=" Hankers" reply="71" id="2713149"] We're closer now than we have ever been before. The gov't in more involved in the private lives of American people and corporations now than any time before. And each time it's allowed it gets easier for the next step. Now thats a fact.

And yes, post #347 took me 3 goes for it to take.[/quote] Well, you know the history better than anyone, but you are parsing words when you say "actually offline" and therefore not counting all the times when the site is online but

[quote who="Jafo" reply="347" id="2671894"] Wincustomize.com is in its 10th year online and in that time there has been a day or two of 'dead air', typically with server works. It's actually a pretty good record [current booms not-withstanding]....[/quote] A day or two? May 26 to July 5 and counting. A day or two? One or two questionable comments out of a 14 page thread does not a mob mentality make and whilst it changes the focus to the "

[quote who="WhiteElk" reply="341" id="2671687"] Quoting Jafo, reply 323I'm on 'all the time'....don't see anything special/y 'wrong' with accessing the forums. Certainly the spammers get on quite efficiently [until I remove them]. As I interpret Jafo's post.. it was in relation to slow page loads not booms. " Reading the thread you will see that many are having a difficult time just getting to the point of posting as well as then getting the boom.

[quote who="Fuzzy Logic" reply="316" id="2671306"] Of course, one can't seriously expect that the 10 people that still visit this forum are much of a priority I suppose. The few who are left, the ones who are complaining, are the ones who care about the site. Everyone else who can't access the site never come back. When this is sorted I don't know how we are going to get people to participate in the site. It now has such a bad reputation. &nbsp

I don't want to ruin everyone's fun about the evil American greed, but the point of the original news release was to point out that there was a possible foundation for an economy in Afghanistan other than poppy growing that could sustain the government and the citizens.
