MinceR> Historian and author Edwin Black, in his best selling book on the topic, IBM and the Holocaust, maintains that the seizure of the German subsidiary was a ruse. He writes: "The company was not looted, its leased machines were not seized, and [IBM] continued to receive money funneled through its subsidiary in Geneva."[91] In his book he argues that IBM was an active and enthusiastic supplier to the Sep 04 14:32
MinceRNazi regime long after they should have stopped dealing with them. Even after the invasion of Poland, IBM continued to service and expand services to the Third Reich in Poland and Germany.[91] The seizure of IBM came after Pearl Harbor and the US Declaration of War, in 1941.Sep 04 14:32

schestowitz-TRouchSep 04 18:04

schestowitz-TRthey would have to pay lots in compensationSep 04 18:05

DaemonFCShe'll be pregnant in a month and Illinois' answer is just get rid of it, and whichever one of them passed her around and left her that way will just get away with it. The whole conversation was just revolting to listen to and they were so loud with it that you could hear it on the whole train car. Thought about calling the police, but they're lazy and corrupt and they'd probably transfer me around ten times and say "What do you want us to do Sep 04 18:09

DaemonFCI wonder how many incidents onboard public transit where some criminal felon gets on and starts blowing people away (including a Metra cop at least once), could have been stopped by an armed citizen.Sep 04 18:13
DaemonFCThe whole reason you pass all of the background checks is because you're not crazy and you don't have a felony record.Sep 04 18:14
schestowitz-TRthat assumes criminals respect these lawsSep 04 18:14
DaemonFCI'm surprised there aren't more incidents on Metra, to be perfectly honest, given some of the areas that they serve.Sep 04 18:14

DaemonFCThere's no "locked compartments" where the conductors have guns or anything.Sep 04 18:19

DaemonFCThere's little risk in being a landlord. You have lawyers to handle evictions, repair men who know how to keep your buildings going just good enough to rent out, and people who work and pay you to live in a building you do nothing except own.Sep 04 18:37
DaemonFCEven less risk because everyone has to come up with a security deposit.Sep 04 18:38
DaemonFCSo if they ruin anything, you usually are covered by that up to at least the value of a month's worth of rent.Sep 04 18:38

kingoffrancewe get fake "jubilees" nowadaysSep 04 19:18

schestowitz-TRhe got seriously stomach poisoning in taipei and nearly died in hospital.. some shellfishSep 04 21:30

schestowitz-TRso sobriety can become painful Sep 04 21:38
DaemonFCI told her "Now I know why you guys always went camping instead of anywhere else. By the time the drinking was paid for, all you could afford was $7 a night to rent a campsite at the state park in the same county.".Sep 04 21:38

schestowitz-TRalcohol is not very expensiveSep 04 21:38
DaemonFCNo, certainly not back then.Sep 04 21:39
schestowitz-TRbut heavy drinkers need more drinks to get or keep drunkSep 04 21:39
schestowitz-TRso it gets more expensive over timeSep 04 21:39
