    I don't remember clicking on the EULA for this crap. Why do I have to be bound by what "a group of lawyers" thinks "best practices" are? Oh wait, I don't...

    Yeah, I know that even something that only involves two countries could be called "international", just like you could create a "internet" containing only two networks.

    You know how hard it was to slashdot a site when there were only five of us?
    Instead of having 5 million people each load a site once we had to each do it a million times...
