Both spammers and Dead Tree spammers are doing the same thing. They are jamming my mailbox (both physical and cyber) with thier junk. I would like to see a movement to get the DTSPAM folks to pay a legitimate postage on the junk they send. I'd even be resonable and make them pay the postcard rate for each 2 oz peice they send. However, the PO lets them off without paying a fraction of that and sticks the 1st class customer with the bill and with trying to sift his bills out of the mess they dump in the box. I just wish there was some similar way to get at SPAM spewers.
First Americans don't have the hots for stuff made by Phillips anyway. I'd check the Sony, Toshiba, and Panasonic catalogs to see what is available. Besides we're too busy hacking for the man to pay for all these stocks we're buying thru the E-Brokers and I'm still saving up to get that Harley. Whose got time for TV anyway.
Depends on what you mean by fuel efficient and what you think your going to need going cross country.
Where I live in California there are only two directions you can go without crossing a desert and a couple of mountain ranges. Running A/C at 80 mph at 6000 feet with 100F outside temp and you may burn up some fuel. However, my Uncle in Belgium keeps driving Volvos that seem to burn way more fuel (not running A/C and BE is real flat) than any caddie I've zipped to Las Vegas or Mammoth in does (normally 25 to 30 mpg for the cads). Also, we don't have the option of taking comfy trains when we go intercity. I wish we did but that is not where the money has gone so far. Actually, the last few times I've been to the continent I've been noticing the locals are driving more and using the trains and bikes a lot less. Better whatch out or you'll all be driving Fords next.

And by then who would those five kings be? Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Paul Allen, Scott McNealy and Robert F. Young perhaps?
