    STFU, your country sucks anyway because it's not the US. Some of us were opposed to the war from the beginning, and I damn sure didn't elect that SOB that's in office now. The only thing Bush had in his favor is he wasn't a pillow-biting baby-killer, but given that it's legal for fags to get married now and Bush says it's cool to kill babies for research, there is nothing noteworthy about him at all anymore (except that he is one apple that fell far from the tree).

    What? And you would have preferred the alternative? That Gore fuckwad is so dumb it probably takes him an hour to cook minute rice.

    When that damn Clinton asked him for a glass of minute maid, he brought in that Lewinski chick for a quickie claiming the maid was on break.

    Damn.

    I just hate all South Koreans, Europeans and Americans! :( When I read this kind of news, I start feeling warm and fuzzy towards North Koreans, Arab immigrants and Al Quaeda...

    Currently I too need to make a choice.
    - To stay with my cable access provider and pay ~80$/month for 128/32Kbps using about 1Gb of traffic (traffic costs 0.07$/Mb).
    - To get ADSL and pay 200$ for installation and 60$ monthly for 64/16Kbps and supposedly unlimited traffic.
    - To pay 10$ for monthly night dial-up access (2:00-9:00) and schedule large downloads for the dial-up, while using cable access during the day for surfing, e-mail and stuff. :-(((((

    And where do you think I live? Zimbabve? Cuba? Argentina? Bangladesh? No, the second largest city of Russia, just 200 km from Finland, the most wired and the most wireless country. Fuck!

    "For instance, we could wage a war of aggression against acountry that poses no threat to us."

    Leave it up to a marxist leftist to somehow tie a technology article into a direct realationship with a "Bush=Hitler" political statement. Then get a 4 for insightful. Nice Job Moderators!
    Communism and Socialism win again over democaracy and capitalism.
