You can trim a great deal of the government and still have law enforcement. This is not an excuse to have a big government. Just how is a bloated EPA, Social Services, USDA, and OSHA doing anything about internet crime?

One thing no one is looking at here, and what this sounds like to me is not an attempt at fraud, but an "internet attack". It happens all the time. Someone with an agenda? Say an environmentalist bent on shutting down sites that promote running old gas guzzling smoke belching tractors? Disgruntled customer? Or someone just being a jerk. One of my sons is a Network Engineer for an communications company. The number of attacks like this are astounding and extremely hard to track. Most are in the form of "denial of service" (DOS) attacks. That's where they flood a sight with so many attempts to log on that someone trying to access the site can't get on. Happened just a few weeks ago with Amazon. Happens to government web sites often. As far as tracking these attacks? That isn't easy either. They can simply plant a bot in peoples computers around the world who don't have a firewall and a good anti virus program. Then at an appointed day/time they all kick in and do what they are programed to do. And just how do you track it when a perpetrator uses a coffee house's guest login for the "free" connection? For those of you who have never been in one there are normally customers sipping their "foo foo latte" drinks and getting online to chat shop or maybe upload malicious programs. These places with free WIFI don't keep track of customers who use them. If they could simply look at something and track it back we wouldn't have these problems.

Today's Featured Article - Picking Corn - by Rick Nikolich. It was the day before Christmas shutdown at work and I asked our lead engineering expert Scott Andrzejewski what he was going to do over the holidays. He said that he had some corn that he still needed to pick with an antique one-row New Idea corn picker. Scott has a nice farm about an hour north of Lansing in St. Johns, MI. He wanted to get the rest of his corn in by the next day (Christmas Eve). We had about an inch of new snow on the ground and single digit temperatures. So in the bac ... [Read Article]
