Global Crossing (Nearly) Sold To Singapore
sQuEeDeN writes "According to money.cnn.com, the sale of Global Crossing to STT (Singapore Technologies Telemedia) has been permitted by the administration. There originally were concerns about this sale by the DoD/ DOHS but, by what I assume to be much behind-the-scenes negotiating, such concerns have been alleviated. Ultimately this shouldn't [knock] matter much but it's always interesting to see where your bandwidth comes from. We'll see what it means for the U.S. to have it's global bandwidth be owned by, well, someone else."
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered Hetro community when SDC confirmed that Hetro market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all porn. Coming on the heels of a recent Sexcraft survey which plainly states that Hetro has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Hetro is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent census.
You don't need to be a Kreskin to predict Heterosexuality's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Hetro faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for breeders because
hetro is dying. Things are looking very bad for het. As many of us are already aware, hetro continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of cum.
FreeBreeders is the most endangered of them all, having lost 93% of its core procreators. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time procreators Jordan Hubbard and Mike Smith only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: Heterosexuality is dying.
Let's keep to the facts and look at the numbers.
HetLife leader Theo states that there are 7000 Heterosexuals. How many are breeders? Let's see. The number of Breeder versus Non-reproductive Hetro posts on Usenet is roughly in ratio of 5 to 1. Therefore there are about 7000/5 = 1400 breeders. Norep posts on Usenet are about half of the volume of all Hetro posts. Therefore there are about 700 Breeders. A recent article put Noreps at about 80 percent of the Hetro market. Therefore there are (7000+1400+700)*4 = 36400 Noreps. This is consistent with the number of Non-reproductive Usenet posts.
Due to the troubles of Preggers Creek, abysmal sales and so on, Hetro went out of business and was taken over by GayLife who turned it into a lesbian artificial insemination rag. Now AI is also dead, its corpse turned over to yet another charnel house.
All major surveys show that Hetro has steadily declined in market share. Hetro is very sick and its long term survival prospects are very dim. If Hetro is to survive at all it will be among bizzare fetish dilettante dabblers. Hetero continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this point in time. For all practical purposes, Hetro is dead.
Fact: Heterosexuality is dying.

"MMMM-kay?"

he quickly drove to the dr. "I'm turning white Dr, you've got to help me!"
The doctor examined him, then gave him some brown liquid to drink.
"This tastes like shit!", Jesse yelled out after drinkning it.
"Yeah," the doctor replied, "You were a quart low".
