You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man's age-old dream -- the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order -- or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism.
-- Ronald Reagan

Men flow into life, and ebb into death.
Some are filled with life;
Some are empty with death;
Some hold fast to life, and thereby perish,
For life is an abstraction.
Those who are filled with life
Need not fear tigers and rhinos in the wilds,
Nor wear armour and shields in battle;
The rhinoceros finds no place in them for its horn,
The tiger no place for its claw,
The soldier no place for a weapon,
For death finds no place in them.

Well, at least Discover card is being proactive - although they continue to send monthly updates with links in them that train people to trust email links:
DISCOVER(R) CARD
Dear NAME OF CARDHOLDER,
We would like to inform you of a recent incident in which
Internet hackers illegally attempted to obtain personal and
account information from Discover(R) Cardmembers. This activity,
called "Phishing," is when hackers imitate the e-mails of
legitimate companies to entice people to share personal
information.
If you received an e-mail from "Support@Discovercard.com"
directing you to update your billing information at a web site
"Billing Center," and if you did enter personal information at
this web site, please contact Discover Customer Service at
1-800-DISCOVER (1-800-347-2683) immediately.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As A Reminder:
- Discover Card does not ask for personal or Account information
to be submitted via e-mail.
- Any e-mail sent from Discover Card, including Discover Card
newsletters, customer service e-mails, or notifications that
your statement is available online, would require you to
successfully log in to the secure Account Center at
Discovercard.com before entering any Account or personal
information.
- If you ever receive an e-mail that appears to be from Discover
Card asking you for personal information, such as your Social
Security number or Account number, please do not respond
directly to the e-mail and call us immediately at
1-800-DISCOVER (1-800-347-2683).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some Signs That an E-mail May be Fraudulent ...
- False Sense Of Urgency -- Threatens to "close/suspend your
account," or charge a fee.
- Suspicious-Looking Links & Pop-Ups -- Links containing all or
part of a real company's name asking you to submit personal
information.
- Misspelled or Poorly Written -- Helps fraudulent e-mails avoid
spam filters.
Use this information and the safety tips found at
Discovercard.com, to protect yourself from one of the fastest
growing Internet crimes.
