To save everyone from downloading that PDF file, here's the relevant section (innovative capitalization and punctuation in the original):
"America's First GPS Enabled Wireless Phone Designed to Support Location Based Services of the Future Imagine having a phone that can use GPS technology to provide you with....
- Driving directions
- Traffic service
- Entertainment/services location
- 911 emergency location services
- Location of family/friends
Location services for 911 calls are not currently available. While these services are not available today (or) (are still under development), this leading edge phone has the technology required to support such network based services upon their launch.
Settings
The settings allow you to turn the Position Location ON or OFF. If the option is turned OFF, the Sprint PCS Network cannot locate your position using the Position Location feature. This option is automatically turned ON when an emergency call is placed, then turned back OFF when the call is completed.
To turn Position Location ON or OFF:
1. Press for Main Menu.
2. Press for Locator.
3. Press for Settings.
4. Read the Position Location disclaimer by using the Up & Down arrows.
5. Press to display the Setting screen.
6. Press the Up or Down arrows to cycle between the available choices.
7. Press to Save and exit.

For our safety--expel Muslims from U.S.

Our government must expel the Muslims from the U.S., like Spain kicked the
Muslims out of Spain in 1492. The threat to our security is much worse now than
in 1492. Now they can use Anthrax, biological weapons, chemical weapons,
suitcase nuclear weapons. Who knows what they will do next? They form a fifth
column within our country. Either that or put them in internment camps. Do not
harm them or do any violent vigilante actions against them though. Treat them
well.

What is their ultimate goal? World domination by the
kind of Islamic radicalism we see in the Taliban Afghan
regime or in Sudan or in Iran.
"We believe that God used our holy war in Afghanistan
to destroy the Russian army and the Soviet Union
now we ask God to use us one more time to do the same
to America, to make it a shadow of itself," bin Laden told
an interviewer in 1997.
They have been working on this plan diligently for years.
Beginning in the mid-1990s, bin Laden's operatives and
closest allies began establishing a terrorist infrastructure
right here in the United States.
Right under our noses, Ayman al-Zawahiri, bin Laden's
right-hand man, established residency in California,
setting up terrorist networks, making key contacts and
laundering funds to be used in this war against us.
Let's assume there are, as Muslims claim, some 7 million
Islamic followers in the U.S. Is it inconceivable that 10
percent of them are sympathetic to bin Laden's goals?
That's an army of 700,000. But maybe that's too many.
Let's suppose it's only 1 percent. That's a fifth column of
70,000. But let's be really, really conservative and say it's
only
right here in the USA.
No wonder there are those in government who admit the
chances of further dramatic terrorist attacks on the U.S.
are 100 percent.
While I hope and pray the attacks on Afghanistan
inflicted heavy, irreparable damage to bin Laden's death
machine in Afghanistan, I fear this war is just beginning. I
fear America is woefully unprepared for what's com

Ned also has young kids (around the age of Bart and Lisa). I would tend to be more suspect of the claim that Ned is a senior citizen than of the claim that he was a small child "30 years ago" (which seems to fit fairly well).
Didn't ever seem weird to you that Jimbo was hanging out with that chick who had to be at least 15 years old, but his best friend Nelson was dating Lisa? Never sat right with me...
Boy, I hope someone got fired over that one.
Hey!
I hate to come off sounding like too much of a purist (and will probably even get modded to OT for this), but...
How is the PDA icon for a CellPhone accurate? Granted this thing is far more than a Cell, but I don't think it warents the PDA icon...
Sorry... Just a random thought...
I'm not a prophet or a stone-age man,
I'm just a mortal with potential of a super man.
