It' rather telling that you find --> this <-- funny.

You seem so eager to kill people. Are you certain there is not something terribly wrong with you?

A lot of people has been in the same situation before you, and as a result they came up with a very effective yet lowtech method you seem to have missed. Please check out this page for an introduction to the concept by Rolando Merino.

True, the Soviets paid a high price in casualties to beat back the Nazis. However, a big reason for the high number of Soviet casualties was Hitler's invasion of the USSR (which Stalin, at least, wasn't expecting quite so soon) in violation of the 1939 Molotov/von Ribbentrop nonagression pact, at a time when the USSR wasn't fully prepared for war, partially because Stalin had just brutally purged the USSR in general and the Red Army in particular of those he feared were disloyal. One of the primary Soviet motivations for signing the pact with the Nazis, instead of joining an alliance against them with France and Britain, was the USSR's general unreadiness for war and Stalin's belief that he could build up his army while Hitler was busy in the west.

Thus, in the attempt to buy some time at the expense of France and Britain (and Poland, which Hitler and Stalin agreed to divide between themselves) to rebuild the army that he was responsible for decimating in the first place, Stalin made the mistake of trusting Hitler and got burned. So if you're trying to drum up some sympathy for the Soviets, you'll get precious little from me =)

Also, a slight nitpick: the phrase "the lion's share" means all of something, not just the majority of it. The reference is to one of Aesop's fables.

OK, read this. The Oak and the Reed

Same thing applies in other areas, e.g. tall buildings sway slightly in strong winds or mild earthquakes.

How sweet!

El Camino Real is "The King's Road". There are actually two El Camino Real's - one in California and one in Texas. They are esentially the first interstate roadways in the New World. In both cases, they were built to link a series Spannish missions.

There's an El Camino Real Blvd in Clear Lake, Texas (just south of Houston) near JSC. I thought it was one of these local things, but if there's one in Silicon Valley I must be wrong.

...in Spanish, means "The Royal Road", or "The King's Road". In California, at least, it was a highway that linked the Spanish Catholic missions up and down the coast. The original highway is no longer in use, of course, but California has marked various roads and highways as "El Camino Real". For more history and maps, see this site.

There are two other major El Camino Reals - El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, which may be the one you've seen in Texas (it originally ran from Mexico City to Santa Fe) and El Camino Real de los Tejas, which ran from Mexico City to what is now Louisiana.

I can't speak for Texas, but El Camino Real was the road in California that Spanish missionaries used to settle the state as they were building missions.

Here's a couple of links to cool historic planning maps for San Francisco and Los Angeles. The will to do these things didn't last long enough to finish though.

Another interesting "roads of future past" link is interregional highways, which shows what the interstate system was meant to look like in 1944, before it was called the interstate system.

I think the term originally comes from Television, where you can get Blacker than Black, as the actual signal level for black is higer than the absolute lowest value. Ever done the calibration where you have to lower/raise the brighness so that a black areas is the same colour as the background? There is a test image and a description of the process here.

Highly recommended if you like things to be "just right" ;-) Most folk have their TV set very wrongly and don't realise it, usually because they have the settings up in the shop to make it stand out from the other ones.

If you are interested in this sort of thing, and have a home cinema set up, I highly recommend the Video Essentials DVD, which explains everything about setting your system up to be perfect. No, I don't work for them!

Perhaps in the future, those who are spearheading this project can do a map tracing of El Camino Real de California, or whatever it's formally known as (more coloquially known as El Camino Bignum). I'd love to see where that runs in conjunction with current roads, but that's just me.

San fransisco has willie brown easily one of the most corrupt politicians in the entire west coast. We have davis sucking dick for anyone who might help him get to the presidency (that includes ellison). Speaking of which just living in the same state as ellison, siebel (tom), and the like makes my skin crawl. California easily has one of the most overtaxed populace in the united states without any real state-sponsored socialist programs here that are worth mentioning, where does the money go?

explosives, or other relatively sophisticated weaponry.

what is so sophisticated about diesel fuel and fertilizer? really there are alot of explosives that are cheap and easy to make. a simple google search will provied instructions on how to construct such devices. you can even purchase the books online if you cannot make it down the library.

really though if someone wants you dead there isnt much you can do to stop them especially if you are not aware of their desire. banning guns treats the symptom and not the problem. the only solution that involves banning stuff is to ban everything. the only way to stop people from violating the rights of others is to strap everyone to a bed at birth and not allow them to come into contact with others.

use LaTeX? want an online reference manager that

OF in the Power Tower Pro is version 1.0.5 and it is buggy but it does work. If you really want an OF boot system on this box you might check the tips at the page http://www.pacificnet.net/~drben/linuxpt p/ especially the boot and installation issues page; it is horribly outdated but there may be some useful info still there.
