600 troops

Distributed in four nations. Is that really a show of force?

Yes, 600 troops is a show of force, if we're worried about Monaco or Lichtenstein being the aggressor nation. For anyone larger, not so much.

Against Russia? It's a show of inadequacy and vacillation. It's at most a tripwire, nothing more, and it's not even that unless they believe that we'd respond with real force to the tripwire being attacked.

Computer crapped out. Decided it was time to join this century and get an android phone. Got to get a real keyboard next.

Had S5 for one day and used up half my alloted data. So that would be $60 a month for two days of service (I didn't buy it to piggy back on wireless.)

So I handed them $400. They handed me back a promise that the check (minus $35 restocking fee) is in the mail.

We shall see.

I hope you get your phone issues sorted out.

I don't use a smartphone, so I have no idea.

At this point I do not even care. Someone told me Walmart has a straight talk plan that uses Verizon (the only carrier that works out here) with unlimited data. So next time I get into Show Low I'll check it out.

Also couldn't comment with S5 on Rand's site since he disallows proxy which apparently the phones use.
