    I am experiencing the wifi sync issues quite heavily. My iPhone 5 might sync 1 out of 5 times, probably less. I wouldn't say that iTunes is as bad as he says, since it's not crashi…

    Here's the thing: actions have consequences. Bad actions result in bad consequences. Such is the learning process of lots of species. Do you think training pets by reinforcing good…
