Opting out of Verizon Wireless privacy revocation

You may have heard about Verizon Wireless' new policy. They are going to make your privacy information available to their associates (whatever that means), unless you opt out. Apparently they've made opting out based on their instructions extremely difficult.

Hotmail nonsense

MSN has really fubar'd hotmail. It's difficult if not impossible to copy paste from entries. If you type up a nice e-mail, then hit send, you need to make sure you actually hit the "send" button right in the center, or you get a message asking if you really want to navigate away from the page before you send your message. You say "no" and then the send button becomes inactive (so you copy your message, and reinitiate the new e-mail procedure).

You'd think that when you use a company's e-mail system, in their browser, that it would work normally. Gah.

No, I can't use Firefox at work.
