Life is like a hurricane
Here in Boxer-burg.
Race cars, lasers, aeroplanes
It's a jet-blur
Might solve a mystery
Or rewrite history!/sorry couldn't help it.

If we all know that global warming is real, then we don't need satellites whose only function is to prove it.
If a question is already answered, people stop looking for it.
It's hard to convince people that smaller, and more detailed questions can give us answers just as important, sweeping, or damn interesting. Their attention is already elsewhere.
The company has every right to decide to charge money for a service. Even if it "should" be free.
It seems like they want to paint themselves victims of Sarbanes-Oxley. Perhaps they want to win some sympathy points from the customers?
Who exactly gets to decide what is fair? Kucinich? The pundits doing the talking? Or how about the people listening? No one is perfect judge of what is fair. Indeed, human perception of balance is guaranteed to be arbitrary to begin with. *Everyone believes they are the center*.... or can't admit they aren't. So why not let people vote with their radio dials?
That's the problem. Too many people believe that if only they "got the message out", people would be swayed by XYZ on the issue of ABC. What they fail to realize is that simply shouting louder doesn't help. Here's a hint. Isn't your megaphone. Your message just effing sucks. If I am given equal time and I complain that no one listens, to whom do I assign blame? Well, that depends on your politics.
Liberals don't want conservatives to have a megaphone because (gasp)... people might listen. Those poor helpless sheeple I rescued from the Rethuglicans might be led astray again!
Conservatives refuse to give liberals their megaphones. Those selfish bastards!
Let's be honest. If your ideology controls a market, any intrusion on your turf is unfair.
People, corporations aren't the only carriers of cell phone signals.
The government maintains it's own systems, and even many military technologies are based upon the commerical technology we take for granted. Now, we don't need to be reminded that the government can be somewhat....lazy....when it comes to research. So it isn't a big stretch to assume that they've basically bought a private network with commercial technology.
The reliability of a network is a function of more than just pixie dust. It takes signal encoding, RF broadcast angle patterns, and a widely cast net of signal towers to name a few things.

Offtopic perhaps but it *funny*, not flamebait. I haven't had my coffee, so sarcastic humor just fits my mood.....
Nothing like hot state-on-state action, eh?

"the content protection mechanisms ...... will lead to better driver quality control."
Less freedom = better quality?
Might as well say it.
War is Peace.
Freedom is Slavery.....
Not always. While your support for zee troops is appreciated, you must remember that the troops aren't always the target.
Important Iraqi politicians can and do get whacked from time to time. It would be nice to know who's doin' the killing.
If every man were a f*****g Jack of All Trades, then I'd lose my job as a handyman!
I'm glad someone is beating Jay-Z over the battle for our children's souls!
Real people scream.
You have your answer.

Or it could be someone else was stopped from cheating :-)

You are correct. At high enough energies, the projectile is often liquefied and can cause damage to the rails.
Perhaps a sufficiently high arc can disguise this as a meteor* strike if it goes unannounced and unnoticed by radar.
*Meteorites leaves evidence. Meteors can explode in midair.
Cool to think about....
That was Generations :) ..
You know life sucks when your eyes are bugged.....poor Geordi :(
