Quick question for a knowledgable person
or any dummy who might know. I changed my avatar to Sybil.jpg. Who is Sybil and what is she known for? jpg is an odd last name.

5. and jpg is not a last name. It is an extension of a computer file
referring to anything that is not text: graphics, photos, etc.

When you post something with the jpg extension the medium, like DU, will recognize this as a non text file. gif, too.

And that's all my wintel knowledge. Mac does not use any of those..

6. Thanks, question. That's good to know.
I didn't think it sounded Italian.

3. Spend some time looking through these:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=344

She is a former translator for the FBI. A whistleblower. What she has to say runs deep. Her name is Sibel Edmonds.
