    I just hold the wheel with my knees and use no hands. With manual gear box I only have one hand available so I have to put the drink down when I eat.

    Where do you get your food from?

    Since you are opposed to road transportation,
    You better not be buying it from a store while your at it you better get of the internet aswell after all the people who installed it drove to the work site.

    Something I hate are people who sit on green lights in the city. Problem is you don't know if they are waiting to turn of go straight ahead so you don't realise what they are doing until they eventualy see the green light and by then several minutes may have passed.

    Talking on the phone while driving isn't always dangerous it depends entirely on the driver.

    I know plenty of people who can use the phone no problem but despite this I also see ALLOT of people swerving all over the road while on the phone.

    Some people can do it but allot can't

    Here's an interesting idea!

    If you don't want people to have your data then DON'T release it to the public.

    It's like keeping a blog then getting upset when people find it and link other people to it.
    âoeIt wasn't my wishes for this blog to be linked to, only the people I show it to are allowed to read itâ

    I know bad analogy but I think you can see where I'm going with this.

    It's easy to forget that. I'm all for the death penalty and harsh criminal convictions, but only for violent crime. IP infringement is not a crime that we need to take 10 years from somebody for. Let's not forget that we will spend anywhere between 300K and 400K as taxpayers to do it too. Is is really that cost effective for us to do this? To protect big media companies? To protect society, or our values?

    Copyright laws have a huge cost to society, I think they should be abolished then we wouldn't have to deal with this crap.

    10 years in prison? I realize that's a maximum, but the reality is he's done nothing that should be even closely considered to being a danger to society.

    Thats twice the penalty for murder.
