Well, I do. The articles won't load.

I get this message: "There was an error processing a page. A font contains a bad Cmap/Encoding." Acrobat reader sucks. Why the hell not just provide a link to the articles? Why use crappy Acrobat reader?

And get over the language issue. ANYBODY and EVERYBODY needs to be able to access that information, and it's not user friendly to everyone, obviously.  :roll:

"This file contains information not understood by the viewer. Suppress further errors?"

Switching formats might help... Why not make it so that people can copy and paste and share the information and documents? Why hoard the information like it's yours and yours alone to report? If I can't access it or download it, how the hell am I expected to use the information to help anyone?

Make the articles a webpage! This is ridiculous!

I truly appreciate what they are doing too, but if they honestly want to help, they need to make their information easier to access and distribute.

They're all volunteers, they're overworked, and if they know it's hard to look at and know how to fix it, they'll probably get to it just as soon as they have time.

After all, they didn't put together the website and put all that stuff up there just to *keep* you from reading it, right?

If someone's not getting paid to do a job, then them doing it when they get around to it is really the best you can reasonably ask of them, eh?

Why don't you volunteer to provide tech support and help them fix it?  You appear to have some understanding about why it's not working.

If you have a problem with ISACCORP, tell them about it. This is a different site, in case you haven't noticed.

Yeah well guess what... The "Report a Broken Link" button doesn't work!

I'd copy and paste the link but guess what?

I CAN'T!!!!!!

Why?

Because NOTHING on their site can be copied and pasted!!

LAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did, over a year ago.  I received no direct answer, only a copy of an email between the "governing parties" at ISAC, saying something like "...this looks OK [me, as a person, I guess, since they are paranoid about WWASPS infiltration]".  Other than that, they apparently did not need my help, although I outlined my professional as well as secretarial skills and willingness to do about anything, even contribute money.

It sucks being turned down as a volunteer.  ISAC's 2 founders seem to feel they have it under control.

I don't have any trouble opening the docs. I did once get that same message, but using a different server fixed the problem, and now it opens fine with either one.

I'd venture a guess the reason they don't "Just provide links" is that news articles links usually don't remain fixed. The newspaper and magazine folks don't keep the article available indefinitely. There are exceptions, but they are rare.

I am once again amazed at people wanting to bitch about ISAC. If you have an idea for a better resource - go build it. "They" will come. But go build it anyway.

Spots - what were you volunteering to do? I am kind of surprised to see you volunteered, in light of your unwillingness to be contacted for info on Casa.

If all you want to do is post on Forums from time to time, what use could you be to ISAC? I'd imagine they have little need of "Forum posters".

I'm not trying to be a smart ass or anything - I am truly puzzled. If you want to become more proactive, and are now willing to speak to families and press and government types, please let some one know.

Karen, has it occurred to you, just once, what a good idea it would be if you would just shut your pie-hole?

You, more than anyone on this board, have stabbed people in the back.  You do it routinely and effortlessly, and then to top it off, you refer to the Bible and find a passage that you misinterpret so that you can justify your treachery.

Two years ago, all you could do was talk trash about Shelby, Carey, Shannon, Alex, Marie, Christine and Ginger.  During that time, you were a Sue Scheff groupie.  Since then, you have switched loyalties so many times with your loose-lips and your gossip, it's very hard to know if you just don't have a life, or whether it's just a good time for you to pollute other people's friendships to the point where there is a massive explosion.  You're good at getting people to do favors for you, like getting Shelby to put up your website.  You're also good at doing the keyboard-warrior thing, but nothing you have done has made one bit of difference, except that it has benefited you somehow.

Who the hell are you?  I ask again, who the hell are you to come onto this board and write these stupid posts?  Why attack Spots?   Although, a month from now, you'll probably befriend Spots so you can get something there.

Why don't you take your strange avatar and your high-school gossip and back-stabbing and go back, once again, to your Bible for answers on how to clean-up your act.  What happened to the staying silent advice you got from the Bible?  Didn't last long.  Oh, and please invest in some software that helps you form at least one correctly spelled word.
