After working with Hasidim for a year, I understand. Trust me. [;)]
It has more to do with Russkies, Commies and the general reaction to all that.
Ahhh.....well, I've not much historical interest in those things. So we're safe. [;)]
Why all the Judaica, if you dont mind me asking?
Studying Hebrew has gotten me interested.....nothing more. That motivation is theological not linguistic.

I've found the answer to a question that's puzzled philosophers for centuries: "how many USB ports does a man need on his computer?"
It's ten.

What on earth requires six USB ports? Do you have like 5 different game controllers or something? [8|]

No.

USB keyboard, USB wireless trackball, USB printer, and three external storage devices, all USB. The last three are only plugged in at the same time because I'm consolidating their combined contents on the biggest one of them.

Ahh....so the truth will out! You will soon be down to a more reasonable 4 USB devices.
I've become a fan of Bluetooth mice and keyboards. One USB port used for all. I also use a wireless printer. [:'(]

Until you use one of them new-fangled PAPERless printers, you don't get no bragging rights...[:'(]
Bluetooth is too expensive for not enough increase in performance in my view. I can live with all the wires being out of sight under my desk...[:D]

That pic reminds me when I went to the 'Captain school' (can't remember the correct name in english). There, we recieved a Texas Instruments calculator to use in the different math/science courses. Having grown up with a HP calculator with RPN, lets say I wasn't very fond of the TI.
I detested that thing so much that when I had finished school and gone home to my regiment, I celebrated by letting the TI become closely acquainted with ~0,5 kg of plastic explosives ... [:D][;)]

Exactly. [:D]
I was responsible for holding some training sessions on how to use explosives for engineering purposes. Cutting trees with explosives, how to best blow holes in a road, how to cut a railroad etc. Among the funniest assignments I've ever had. You could say I had a blast ... [;)]
Blowing up the TI was just glaze on the cake.
