    Dude, your girlfriend isn't even alive. And I think the pee-pee option is built into the "xtreem watersportz edition".

    Or you could actually shop around or go to bookpool, where it is $28.50 they don't show up on all book stores.

    Gentoo has a LiveCD or pick a closer mirror.

    I can't vouch for it though, I had their 1.4 LiveCD, but one of the Apple updates broke it and I haven't bothered to try again.

    If the lane bein merged into is already "full" (the spacing between the cars is the minimum safe spacing for the current speed) any additional cars entering the lane will result in a slowdown no matter how you merge them in.
    True, but if the flow is controlled by the system and not humans doing stupid things, it can make sure that lane is never "full" by utilizing the other lanes.

    I'm not saying it would always move at max speed, but it would flow much smoother.

    If you have ever seen what a freeway looks like from altitude it starts to make sense. I have seen the 405 in West L.A. from one of the near high rises and it moves a lot like an inch worm. Mostly because of the people making irratic lane changes and refusing to leave room for a car to merge into.

    ...and then relaxing as the car waits for a suitable break in the traffic flow to bring the car into the stream...
    One of the best parts of this system, you don't need to wait for a spot to merge, the system will make an openeing for you to merge into.

    No more people on the freeway that don't understand that if you merge as a zipper, traffic continues to flow smoothly.

    The politically correct description is "Adult Novelty Items"

    The average slashdot user would refer to them as "Sex Toys" ;)
