Keyless Entries Fail In Las Vegas On Friday
Hoompini-Ting writes "Some accuse area 51, but in any case many folks were stranded when keyless locks failed or their car computers malfunctioned. No technical explanation but I'm sure slashdotters have theories. Similar to the failure in Seattle 3 years ago. See the Las Vegas Review-Journal for more details."
From the article:
Jerry Bussell, Gov. Kenny Guinn's adviser on homeland security, ruled out terrorism
It's amazing how, since 9/11, for every little problem in this country terrorism has to be ruled out...
[sarcasm]
We are talking about people that are unable to go in their cars, it's obviously a terrorist act...
[/sarcasm]
I just want to add a little something that IMHO makes sense here:
"Why of course the people don't want war... That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, a parliament or a communist dictatorship... the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders... All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger.
--Hermann Goering, Nazi Reichsmarshal and Luftwaffe chief at Nuremberg trials, 1945
Mod me down because I'm really off-topic.

He has a few comments on Hitler's "terrific leadership" that alone caused disasters like Stalingrad and Normandy.

TIN FOIL HAT ON TIGHT ENOUGH!!

PS, the Godwinization was a nice touch. Way to compare america to Nazi germany there.
Yeah, be on the lookout for a black guy with the worst cockney accent ever.
I love Don Cheadle, but his vocal performance in that film was so damn bad it was almost painful to listen to.

I bought a used 2001 Silverado 4 x 4 in October and really liked it.
Then I bought my wife a new Ford F-150 SuperCrew, and now I hate my Chevy. Those new F-150's (and all of the nicer newest generation Ford's) are incredible!
The active suspension is great, and the whole truck just seems ~intelligent~, where my Chevy is just a dumb truck.
The turning radius on the F-150 makes the Chevy feel like you're turning around an aircraft carrier in a small river (no, I've never turned around an aircraft carrier in a small river. Just a big one...).
So here's to getting my wife whatever she wants this summer so I can have the F-150!
If you weren't such a shitwit, "I" would stand for "IDEOLOGY" and "T" would stand for "THOUSAND YEAR REICH". go back to school until you are ready to troll with the grownups.
You're right. Germany isn't a good comparison.
The U.S.S.R. IS.
PAPERS PLEASE? Your papers, please.
And to think I laughed at all those 80's movies....
