The whole point of my posting is to advise folk to get a case, if they use an iPad. no, that wasn't your point or you would have said so, which you didn't. all you did was post a url, with nothing more than 'the title says it' and the title does not say 'get a case for your ipad'. you are once again, lying. the vast majority of ipad users do not need a case unless they want to protect it from scratches, i.e., the usual reasons for getting a case. it's entirely optional. many people do, but it's not required. obviously, those with allergies would need to get a case to avoid allergy, or some other form of protection (e.g., gloves). but you didn't say *any* of that. nothing even close to that. nor did you point out that nickel allergies are very common and not just ipads either. You have such a knee jerk reaction that you cause my caution to be disregarded. except you're lying once again. You will say anhting, except admit you were wrong. Indeed, I doubt if you ever admitted you made a mistake, so you cover it with a blunt attack. Your empty words are just that. you're the one who made a mistake (and i'm being very generous). you said your point was to advise folks to get a case but nowhere did you actually say that until later. it's clear you're full of **** and won't admit a mistake, which you've done many times in the past. Oh Yes! I really should mention that I have an agenda. Idiots like you could cost me. I have a personal interest is seeing Apple flourish as a business. Idiots like you could easily hurts its business. Since you know nothing about business, I am certain you don't have the slightest understanding of that concept. -- PeterN |

Nickel is the most common cause of heavy metal allergies for me it's bands like Metalica and the majority of thrash metal bands. ;-) I don't listen to Metallica often but when I do, so do my neighbors. |

She was asked to please turn it down, but refused by saying I'll play my radio as loud as I f--'n want to. I solved the issue by setting up a low powered transmitter, tuned to that station. It jammed her signal. She could never figure out why her radio worked better in the house. -- PeterN |

While she may be legally within her rights, common courtesy for your neighbors should trump that but it sounds like she doesn't have the class to be courteous. Seriously, I never listen to Metallica but I do listen to a lot of hard rock and I like it loud. But I do it when no one is in the house and the windows are closed. The houses where I live are not far from each other on 1.4 acre lots so I could disturb the neighbors and I make sure I don't. There is one neighbor here who lives across the street that has not one ounce of class or courtesy in his body. He has been out mowing his lawn and using a gas-powered blower at six in the morning. He has three dogs that are left outside all day and bark constantly. People have complained politely to him but he doesn't give a darn. And he wonders why no one likes him. |

Don't you live in Riverhead? IIRC that Town has strict barking dog ordinances, http://ecode360.com/6243601#6243601 though I suspect his leaf blower might be considered farm equipment. In any event check: http://ecode360.com/6245248#6245248 I would check with the town clerk. -- PeterN |
