MTU President Peeved At RIAA

mcdude writes "The president of Michigan Technological University has responded to the RIAA suit against one of his students, accusing the RIAA of encouraging cooperation with universities but then bypassing those procedures with the current suit. Curtis Tompkins says, 'I am very disappointed that the RIAA decided to take this action in this manner. As a fully cooperating site, we would have expected the courtesy of being notified early and allowing us to take action following established procedures, instead of allowing it to get to the point of lawsuits and publicity.'" Attention universities: lawsuits are your reward for being a "fully-cooperating site". If you missed the lawsuit news, see our earlier story.

Interesting. You should also note that - at any given time - a married woman's stomach contains a measurable amount of semen most of the time.

Saddam Hussein, dead at 63

[Anonymous Coward]

I just heard a report on the radio. Saddam Hussein (D-Baghdad) was found dead in a restaurant near his home. Even if you weren't a whiny eurotash America hater, there was no denying his murderous exploits. Truly a slashbot icon.

where are the mods on this?

You are overly critical.

This has got to be modded +1, Funny. Only the most overly critical would disagree ;)
