Yes, when I pay over the counter for doctor bills, I get a discount.
Yet my doctor demands that I have health insurance. Pay for it but
don't use it!
I am so scared of being shown the door by doctors and insurers, that I
feel trapped. The area that I live in, does that to people.

I can't speak for another but there are myriad ways for one to
fulfill his moral obligation to minimize or avoid taxes. DW&I lived
comfortable lives while working. I "retired" at age 50; she at 41 and,
although I don't "need" SS, I take it anyway because the bastards
confiscated my money, unbidden. My annual "benefits" (gag) exceed the
_total_ SS taxes I paid in by a substantial margin. As a rule, though,
it _does_ pay the liquor bill. All it takes is a little planning and an
early start. Oh, and you'll have to quit your "job" and be able to
resist IRS minions' bullying.

Just do what I do...never need medical care. Eat right, work out, don't ever
have kids. I'm well into my 50s and don't expect to see a doctor ever again.
Why have insurance if you don't need healthcare?

I never would. I can't afford insurance and don't want it anyway. I have
accepted that if I have a heart attack or a serious injury I will die.
Because I don't do any screenings or testing, I will never know if I have a
serious illness, and I will die. Since every single one of my ancestors,
back 3 generations, have all died just after their 91st birthdays, I'm not
too worried. Except for one grandfather who got lung cancer in his 60s, but
he smoked 3 packs a day. Doesn't count in my book. My mother is the only
person who has ever had a serious illness, but she's also the only one who
ever goes to a doctor, and takes their poisons (prescriptions). However,
she's still going strong at 86. Just took a walking tour of Italy this
Spring. I think the best way to stay healthy is to eat right, work out,
don't breed, and avoid doctors like the plague they are.

Perhaps he's dead certain that in the U.S.A. if he presents to an
emergency room he will receive the same treatment as a paying customer
but with no means test whatsoever but that, if he presents through
"regular" channels, he will have to offer proof of ability to pay. That
is true whether he presents with a headache or with chest pains. Makes
no difference: It's the law. I have received walk-in treatment in an
emergency room within the last three years and was asked for no
financial information whatever, not even whether I was insured, until
_after_ receiving treatment. It may be that he is relying on you and me
to pay his hospital bills. Just another small miracle of the welfare
state.
My family history parallels: Mom's family has history of heart
ailments. She died at age 78. Dad's family is long-lived. His mother
died at age 92; he at age 95. However, I am not delusional enough to
believe any of those facts insulate me from health problems or exempt me
from the responsibility of being able to pay for it if (when) needed.
Certainly, I can think of no reason that my fellow citizens should buy
my health care nor I theirs.

Always earned. Always paid in. Have no intention of taking out,
because I don't believe in it. Yes, at 85 or so I'll "sign-up" for SSN
since I've paid for it since I was 17. But...I will NEVER, EVER pay
for Medicare since I simply don't believe in medical care. Don't
really want whatever they will deign to "give me."

Frankly, the last time I looked at the sheet they sent me (5 months
ago) I'd be "netting" way less than I paid in, even if I live to be
105. That must be how they plan to fund continued social
security...the hijacking of the incomes of those of us who plan to
work well into their 70s or 80s. If I could just get back what I (not
any employer) paid in since I was 17 plus a small 5% interest rate
(insane, since average "crappy" interest rates were well over 15% for
YEARS) I'd walk away happy and never ask the gubmint for a dime.

But...it's not "allowed". So...I don't plan to sign up for any of
their handouts, thereby avoiding the tax money they will take for
"medicare" or whatever. Just go away and leave me alone. Thank yew,
verrry much. Don't need it, don't want it, would never use it, ever.
Doctors? Blech! Never, ever.

Oh, I understand now. I see you have posted your query in
alt.comp.freeware. Maybe someone can offer useful suggestions. Be sure
to check the pricelessware site, too. Alternatively, you might consider
temporarily using a file aggregating utility to "zip" the photos into
one file, although you're not likely to gain much compression of jpegs.
Most competent (and free) file aggregators can create an auto-exploding
".exe" file so that the recipient need only run his virus checker
against it ;-) and double-click. No esoteric knowledge required.

GIMP will do it. I gather in the Microsoft world, the program for doing
that sort of thing is "Photoshop" complete with a very expensive price
tag.

I was splicing together two scans last night, a page that was too big
for my scanner. Just a matter of cutting and pasting the two parts
together in a bigger "canvas".

Seems to me you've just described "panorama". Commonplace. Even
Irfanview will do that without the Gimp's overhead and kludge of an
"interface". What am I missing? sst: "Brain" or "good sense" are

I agree pretty much with everything you say except this last statement
about the automatic extra tax revenue generation.

sometimes traffic cameras are put into place at busy intersections because
children and the elderly are killed by reckless driving. Some streets have
higher numbers of school aged pedestrians or homes for the aged and traffic
needs to be slowed to posted limits for good reason. There are benefits to
having cameras introduced to some areas.

Make sure the street your wife was speeding on does not have schools, or
public transit or busy pedestrian crossings before arguing in front of a
judge. I know it's really easy to blame tax authorities but that isn't
always the case.

Go to court and tell it to the judge.

Your attitude about traffic laws seems to be that they should only apply to you
if you agree with them under the circumstances. I'm glad most drivers don't have
that attitude. A lot more people would die. If you disagree with the laws, I
believe your have the right to surrender your licence and cease driving, so you
won't be bothered anymore.

<SNIP from here to edit for space>

My experience is that camera enforcement laws are written to penalize
owners of vehicles driven illegally. The logic behind such laws is that
vehicle owners need to avoid allowing their vehicles to be driven by those
that the owners do not trust to drive such vehicles in ways that avoid
such tickets (as in driving in a safe and legal manner).

One more thing in my local experience with newspaper reporting of camera
ticketing (in my area that is for running red lights): Camera tickets do
not impose points onto one's license, because the camera does not show who
was the driver that committed the moving violation.

I used to favor red light cameras in an area that I still think badly
needs them (Philadelphia).

However, I saw what hapened within months after Philly's intersection of
58th and Walnut (school there) got red light camera enforcement: The
yellow light duration was shortened at least half a second from that
area's usual 3 seconds to no more than 2.5 seconds.

Whoever was responsible (or more like irresponsible) for that is giving
camera enforcement a bad name, and detracting from support for such things
where they are badly needed. (Such as where cops stopping unlawful drivers
cause traffic tie-ups in the process.)
The irresponsible persons shortening yellow light durations at
intersections with red light cameras need severe punishment, such as maybe
public gonad removal surgery in a painful manner. OK, I would settle for
public shaving of all hair on every square inch of their bodies, or else
showing how every square inch of their bodies was already hairless. And
publish their vehicles' make/model/year/tag#, so that they are forced to
drive 35 rather than 45 in roads posted 35 but suitable for 50 and driven
at 40-45 by many cops when they are off-duty and out of uniform and in
their personal cars.

Yeah, last year we had huge bald-faced hornet nest in a tree. So far
this year, we've found two yellow jacket nests in the ground (DH was the
unfortunate one to discover them while mowing - extremely painful), then
we discovered a bunch of them going into the siding. They're getting
more frequent. Neither one of us wants to get anywhere near them.
Terminex said they would get rid of any in the yard, too, so we figured
it would be well worth it.

We called one local company, but they couldn't match what Terminex
offered. And Terminex was the only one specifically mentioned, besides
Orkin, by the family-owned service that takes care of our trees. We'll
see whether they live up to their reputation.

Don't know anything about exterminators, but I just spray all areas with
regular Aquanet hairspray 4 times a day, during the first week we see flying
stuff. All dead, totally gone. Yeah, we have to do it every year, but there
hasn't been any more wood damage and we're only on the 4th can of $2
hairspray. And it's theoretically non-toxic. Ok, I would never put that crap
on my hair, nor would I spray it inside the house, but still, millions of
other women do it daily.

Yellow jackets can be dealt with using a ShopVac or similar vacuum.

Put the rigid extensions on the flex hose, plug the flex hose into
your vacuum, slide the open end of the rigid extensions over to the
nest entrance, turn on the vacuum, obtain a chair and refreshing
beverage, sit down and watch the show.

Once all the wasps are collected, plug the hose and leave the vacuum
sitting in the sun for a few hours (the heat will kill them).

Empty into a trash receptacle, squirt some insect spray into the
entrance, and you should have no further problems.

That's how I dealt with three separate nests. Works fine.

I think Christianity is a model... of hypocrisy.

They are used to vote for the war and against minority rights.
Actually they can lead the sheep wherever they want.

Umm, just fine. Have never had health insurance and never will. Seeing a
doctor is something I just don't do. Dentists, yes, 3 times a year for
cleanings because I have crappy, Irish teeth, but everyone in my family
lives to 91 (both sides, men and women ) without fail, and we never, ever
see doctors. They can force me to buy "health insurance" when they pry the
money from my cold, dead, fingers.i.e., never gonna happen. Medicare?
No...not so much. Not gonna pay, no way, never. But, then again, I'm off the
Gubmint grid. Sucks to be not me! :)

The advantage of health care insurance is not so much that they pay a
portion of what's owed, but more importantly, they negotiate lower
prices with doctors, hospitals, etc. If you walk in the door with no
insurance, expect to be billed and extra 50%.

Of course, there is much evidence to question if health insurance is
really needed for most under 50. The Obama plan (like Hilliary's
approach) works by forcing the younger to subsidize the elders.

Correct but a little behind the times. I had the experience in 2007
as an outpatient. Left a pile of cash on a desk upon each exit but
received multiple warnings about "supplemental" billing. When the dust
settlled, I received bills amounting to nearly 3.5 times what I already
was out-of-pocket. They're still waiting; holding their collective
breath, I hope. Fortunately for me, "credit score" is just a number.
Don't _even_ get me started on the Medicare abuses DW&I documented
during my then-dying father's three-month hospitalization in late 2005.
Ironically, that hospital's board chairman is a long-time family friend,
particularly close to both my parents, and even his best efforts at
intervention yielded minimal results. It was as if medical surrogacy and
durable power of attorney meant nothing to those people: I could force
them to eschew or abandon a procedure only to return (unannounced) to
find it reinstated and in progress as if I meant, "Don't do that while
I'm here".
DW&I _finally_ succeeded in getting the old fart transferred to a
long-term care facility. Won't mention it's name but its performance and
care were exemplary. I guess the moral is, "If you're terminal, bypass
the hospital and go directly to "nursing home" or hospice but
stay-the-hell away from hospital quackologists.
OTOH, I'm the first to recognize that my two anecdotes cannot be
construed as a trend. However my "advice" (remember the validity of
"free" advice) is to sign no financial documents at admission and to
demonstrate, from the get-go, that ignoring your surrugacy and/or your
agency bring your attorney and, if you must use that last resort, find
the sleaziest, polyester-wearing, Porsche-driving bottom-feeder that you
can.

ABSOLUTELY FALSE!

They charge LESS for out of pocket costs

Yes, when I pay over the counter for doctor bills, I get a discount.
Yet my doctor demands that I have health insurance. Pay for it but
don't use it!
I am so scared of being shown the door by doctors and insurers, that I
feel trapped. The area that I live in, does that to people.

Sure. Next you're going to try to convince me that Titantic wasn't

I sincerely give a shit who read and who don't... You still have to
eat the banana, ie. have to swallow the truth.

I got many replies in other more militant groups. I even get more
replies about bicycles there. But there are many more important
problems out there.

You are so stupid and selfish that you rather die one by one rather
than coordinate some action.

Trust me, stupidity is not rewarded in the jungle.

I will parade the topics that I deem important while you hide in the
holes.

TM is a poor crazy bastard who just posts on his one favorite subject -
hatred of motor vehicles because they interfere with his use of the roads.
His other favorite subject is attacking Christianity. If you respond to this
poor crazy bastard, then you are a poor crazy bastard too.

He likes to reference monkeys and other wild animals normally found only in
zoos because he is most likely a wild beast himself. I think he fornicates
with monkeys, but I can't prove it.

TM should confine himself to just one thread instead of proliferating them
like a poor crazy bastard. He is insane of course. I liken him to the
village idiot of olden times. The difference these days is that no one any
longer recognizes the village idiot because idiocy has become so widespread.

But I will be here to remind one and all of what a poor crazy bastard TM is.
It is mark of My Greatness that I can still recognize the village idiot even
if the rest of you can't.

Most do not use kill files. Since that is the case a poster who initiates
numerous threads will soon come to dominate a small newsgroup like RBS,
thereby scaring off newbies. Your solution is no solution at all. It is the
way of the coward who does not want to confront reality. But if you want to
stick you head in the sand like an ostrich, that is fine with me. It means
it will be even easier for me to kick your dumb ass.

TM is a poor crazy bastard who just posts on his one favorite subject -
hatred of motor vehicles because they interfere with his use of the roads.
His other favorite subject is attacking Christianity. If you respond to this
poor crazy bastard, then you are a poor crazy bastard too.

He likes to reference monkeys and other wild animals normally found only in
zoos because he is most likely a wild beast himself. I think he fornicates
with monkeys, but I can't prove it.

TM should confine himself to just one thread instead of proliferating them
like a poor crazy bastard. He is insane of course. I liken him to the
village idiot of olden times. The difference these days is that no one any
longer recognizes the village idiot because idiocy has become so widespread.

But I will be here to remind one and all of what a poor crazy bastard TM is.
It is mark of My Greatness that I can still recognize the village idiot even
if the rest of you can't.

In the past, I've enjoyed using GJC Software's "Easy Viewer 3", which
allowed me to take huge, high res photos and combine 4, 6, 8 or even
more into a single jpeg image. I could then resize this as I saw fit,
and it made it very easy to email some end of year pictures to people,
or submit multiple views of something in 1 photo for Ebay, etc.

I need to combine 4 jpeg photos into 1 again, and I just found out
that the Easy Viewer 3 program, while it will install, won't run
properly under Windows 7. I checked online, and an upgrade to version 4
costs $120, while full version is $150. Ouch! Even spending the $120
to upgrade seems too high, considering that this was the only feature of
the program that I used.

Can anyone point me to a less expensive software program that will
run on Windows 7 and quickly and easily allows a person to combine
multiple jpeg images into a single, multi-view image? If I could get
something that would let me drag & drop images, then save, that would be
worth $50 to me, and save me about 70 bucks!

Thanks!

Do mean as in a so-called "panorama" view? That subject was
recently discussed in the alt.comp.freeware newsgroup. I didn't pay much
attention to the thread but I believe there were a number of
recommendations of _free_ software to accomplish the task. Search for
subject: panorama photo creator-freeware. Alternatively, you might
peruse the "pricelesswarehome" web site. It may have recommendations
from alt.comp.freeware users.

No, I'm just talking about a program that lets you take a bunch of
regular photos and put them together into 1 photo. For example, let us
say I have 9 photos of my kids I want to send out. I'm on dialup, so I
don't want to contemplate ever having to upload even 1 of those high
res. However, I was previously able to create a grid, and select 9 jpeg
photos to add to it. Then I would save the resulting grid of photos as
a single jpeg.

After that, I would compress it a little bit, and then attach once to
an email, insert it into a document, or whatever.

When I have crap like that I'll have you in mind.

There's no place to ride a bicycle in peace in America and most of the
so-called "civilized West." The Machine is raging and the monkeys --
notice, no God-- are waiting for a "miracle" before we finally fuck up
the planet and end up eating each other alive.

Good luck in your holes!

There a plenty of places of ride a bicycle in peace in the U.S. if you
live a rural or semi-rural area. I went for a pleasant 90 minute the
other day and only encountered maybe 6 or 7 cars for the entire trip. If
you insist on living in an urban or suburban area with a lot of traffic
then that's part of the choice you made when choosing a place to reside.

Living in the boondocks is not an option for most Americans. Actually
UTILITY BIKING and CITY go together.

I could find such pleasant ride, but I must first load the bike on a
car, which defeats the purpose of the bike.

No matter what, you must feed the lion. Thank you for your kind reply,
which means you don't ignore me like God. ;)

From: Ohioguy


In the mail today I got a notice from the police department of a
neighboring city. It was informing me that I owed them $85 for driving
too fast - ~66 in a 50 mph zone, calculated by traffic light cameras.
This is on a limited access "connector", which still has about 10
intersections as it curves around the west portion of the major metro
area. The camera was just barely able to make out the license plate
numbers, evidently.

Funny thing is, I don't drive that vehicle. My wife does. The
letter said that I'm responsible unless I can get another person to sign
a letter saying they are responsible. Obviously, my wife was the one
driving, on her way to work. She was probably a little bit late, and
driving a bit fast to make up time.

However, it brings up an interesting question. There is no cop on
location to verify the driver, or even to verify that a human was
driving. In fact, it could have been my license plates transferred to a
similar looking vehicle, if someone wanted to automatically generate a
ticket for me. And even if a relative or 'friend' borrowed my car, if
they don't own up to it or accept responsibility, I'm then automatically
responsible even if I can prove I was elsewhere, and couldn't have been
driving the car?

That seems pretty bogus to me. I didn't like it when they started
doing this with red light cameras, because I've always believed if you
stop in the middle of the night, there is no traffic or whatever, you
should just look both ways and then go, because it is pointless to just
sit there, wasting gas for an extended period, just like it is at a stop
sign. Not any more. And now they are estimating your speed, which
means they are keeping track of you in the system from place to place.

I am curious about what would happen if I took 2 cars of the same
make , model & year, and put the same plates (I have spares) on the back
of both of them. Then, if I coordinated over a telephone with my wife
or somebody, I could drive through one light, and then through a
different light & traffic cam a couple of seconds later. It would look
like I was going something like 800 miles per hour, and I wonder if they
would issue a ticket for that? Probably.

My point is that I feel that a human should be present to issue any
tickets. Once before, I went through a red light in an ice storm when
taking a girl home after a party in college. I looked both ways, saw no
oncoming traffic, and decided it would be more dangerous to brake and
change speed than to run the light, which had changed faster than I
expected. Of course, there was a cop there, and he pulled me over.
Once I explained my reasoning, however, he agreed and simply let me off
with a warning. Try that with a traffic camera, when its sole purpose
is to generate extra tax revenue.

Umm, just fine. Have never had health insurance and never will. Seeing a
doctor is something I just don't do. Dentists, yes, 3 times a year for
cleanings because I have crappy, Irish teeth, but everyone in my family
lives to 91 (both sides, men and women ) without fail, and we never, ever
see doctors. They can force me to buy "health insurance" when they pry the
money from my cold, dead, fingers.i.e., never gonna happen. Medicare?
No...not so much. Not gonna pay, no way, never. But, then again, I'm off the
Gubmint grid. Sucks to be not me! :)
