I have two 1TB disks and a huge file tree on each. Each takes up about 85% of their disk. I want to swap/exchange the trees between disks. The only spare (USB) disk that big I have is nearly full. One problem is that I must split the time to do this. If I had lots of spare space I would use ...

Okay. Seriously, Firefox needs to stop adding "features" like their Firefox Hello thingy and focus on adding features that people are leaving Firefox over the lack of - like HTML5 video support

So, I'm preping for the Sociology CLEP test and had to look up the definition of Alienation...this is what I found:
"Karl Marx argued that alienation results from the private ownership of capital and the employment of workers for wages, and arrangement that gives workers little control over what they do."
