years in computer systems engineering and operation. Now, can you tell me
how to remove "your software" that you acknowledge you provided free of
charge? I consider this "hacking". I have no fear of the media, in fact I
welcome this publicity.


Wow ...

This is what a complete retard looks like... (http://www.tuttle-ok.gov/index.asp?Type=B_BASIC&SEC={CC5DEFB6-1B2A-4783-A5F8-A92275C95081})

Edit: It's a shame that newspaper's forum is down, I'd fire up a friendly "local" proxy and treat them to a link to proof that they need a new city manager.

Why let that stop you?  Fire up a proxy, hit a webmail client, and mail the admin-of-record: thegarviesATaolDOTcom. ;)

EDIT: To be fair, it's City Manager v CentOS, not the mayor (http://www.tuttle-ok.gov/index.asp?Type=B_BASIC&SEC={817F3744-D1CC-4C36-810D-CCED7FF8486A}).  Looks like Mr. Paxton may be needing a new ally.

*#$% this guy is an idiot!  The CentOS guy should have sent the exchange to the newspaper.

We need to expose this moron... he needs to be punished by having his town see how stupid he his.

Better yet... everyone submit this to slashdot.

I absolutely hate it when people act on their own to fix IT problems, or worse: thinking that they are computer litterate (probably because they followed a Microsoft Office course, which any moron can pass), while they are full of shit.

Does it count that I took a few Office courses and intentionally tried to fail them, only to find that it can't be done? :D

Actually, come to think of it, I did get marked down for not using Microsoft's Office suite.  When exactly did college become a time for corporate punditry?

You got marked down for not using Microsoft Office? What was the reason behind this?

Hah ... at my college they usually make people take computer literacy exams ... how to use M$ Window$, Office, and other shit ... you wonder how one can fail such an exam, I don't know of anyone that has, but then someone must have failed otherwise there wouldn't be a class to teach you computer literacy. Luckily I didn't have to take the exam, cuz I had lots of computer science credits ... they assumed that meant I knew how to use a computer (which may or may not be true ... is it possible to know how to program, but not how to use M$ Window$ and M$ Office ?)
