I want people to come help me leaflet at this stupid thing.

I have a group with 300 members on facebook. I just set up an event related to the group. I want to invite all the group members to the event but the little button that allows you to do this (well, it was there on Saturday) has disappeared. How do I invite all the group members?

Help out my creaking old computer.

Succour for Aged Computers Filter: I've got an old computer that is having two problems. 1) When it boots up, it always asks to go into safemode. This is an old problem. 2) when it boots up, I can use the kb to select safemode (or not) or make selections in the bios, but when XP loads up, mouse and kb aren't working!

Me and phones and connectivity this week...

My boss has a Samsung D500 and some generic Bluetooth dongle. In the past, she would plug in the dongle, put the phone by it and some software enabling contact-transferrage, etc. would pop up. Now, she gets a window about the DUN modem asking for a mysterious username and password and a number-to-dial.

What does Venezuela do with that of its oil money that it's not currently spending?

The Chavez government is doing a lot of direct investment in the people of Venezuela, but it can't be spending all the money at once: I am wondering if it has a fund similar to the Petroleum Fund of Norway - any kind of fund saving up some of the oil money? Particularly interested if they have a fund that invests some of the money in the stock market, as the Norway's fund does. Bonus questions inside.
