I thought things were getting better

After weeks of waiting for the tanks to arrive, I called the pet store AGAIN to set a delivery time. At this point, I have not once received any communication from them that I have not initiated first by a phone call or a visit. They assured me the tanks will arrive on Wednesday for a Thursday (today) delivery. Did not hear anything from them yesterday which I considered to be a good thing. Called today to set up a time, and NO DELIVERY! Turns out the company that makes the tanks has only made 3 of the 9 ordered (7 of which were mine). So, they made the executive decision to not deliver any of them. This I find out the day after the once/week delivery schedule. SO ANGRY!! Back to the drawing board.

On a side note, I have been playing around with various pdf organizing and manipulating software. My recent addition has been a program called Papers (only for Mac users). This is a cool little program that will easily become my new best friend. Biggest downfalls are the ability to site and the ability to highlight. It only allows me to use Preview which is a program I despise. Apple should know better than to use Preview because it is such a limited and useless program.

What is up with Pdf's anyway? Is there no better option than non-readable documents that have limited software capabilities and no easy way to be interactive? For scientists, and I am including myself in that mix, our software is in the dark ages.
