My offer to take photographs of this still stands.

Do you want me to email you the results?

Or are you still going to refute this?

I'm offering you proof here, yet you still refuse to believe it or even
consider it.

Tell me, Rod - is the earth really flat?

know...

What, Rod, wrong?

Perish the thought. Never in a million years.

Doesnt prove a damned thing about how it got that way, stupid.

See above.

See above.

Like hell you are. The only proof would be to actually
try it and see if you get the same result, stupid.

See above.

Obvious lie.

> Tell me, Rod - is the earth really flat?

Pathetic, really.

The usual nonsense.

Better see your doc about going back on those meds, Rod.

You clearly have issues inside that space above your shoulders.

Probably only two issues, though - you can only have one issue per brain
cell.

ESS Data Recovery provides free evaluations of hard drives, and then
gives detailed reports explaining problems and then a not-to-exceed
estimate. Honestly, though, I doubt you could get a good data recovery
company to guarantee a price under $700, although it's certainly worth
a shot. Beware, though---some "data recovery" companies run logical
fixes on physically malfunctioning drives (i.e., yours.). This can
ruin the heads of the drive a physically destroy the data on disk, so
you want to make sure that whatever company you choose is reputable.
The best rates, technology, etc. is ESS, and their number's
1-800-237-4200, so good luck to you.
