No, but there is a 9 year period of learning and maturing. It's not magic, it's that by the age of 16 a person should be responsible and mature enough to operate a motor vehicle.
There are plenty of differences between a 7 year old and a 16 year old.
that maybe true, but when you are driving 70mph down a busy interstate, you cant tell the difference between an mp3 and a song from a cd. At least, I cant.

Bill Clinton is a liberal. Bill Clinton bombed, sent troops to Kosovo. Bill Clinton is a warmonger.
It's my understanding(and I could be wrong) that putting the distro on a server that is accessable by the world violates the encryption export laws. If there was a way to guarantee that only U.S. citizens could download it, then they could release it.
We use NTsp3 for running MS Access queries/reports. The machines we use are factory direct Dells. We get BSODs about once every 2 weeks or more. Usually its the hp printer driver that causes the crash. Does that mean it's a faulty 3rd party driver that crashed the OS?? Maybe so, but why does the WHOLE machine have to go down after I hit the print button??
lets all send email to... to news sites such as msnbc, cnn, fox news, and all of the other major news sites saying that we would like them to use the term "hacker" correctly. If every slashdotter send 1 email to each site, maybe could get at atleast noticed.
Just a thought.

I would like to go see my friends and family in person too, but they live 400 miles away. I try to go home when I can, but I cant always just pick up and leave and drive 6 hours(one way while speeding) and see them. So I think video conferencing would be nice, especially if it costs nothing more than I what I pay for my internet access. BTW...I moved to start my own "real life" and I love it, but I also love my family and friends.

And those would be the Christians or the non-Christians?
Grow up.
"Lake Placid" looks like a better movie to me.
what does southpark have to do with "News for nerds, stuff that matters"
Besides the bit about Bill Gates getting killed in the movie.(That's what I heard, I wouldnt waste my money on southpark).

I just found a major security hole in the linuxstart email system. I emailed the webmaster, so hopefully they will fix it.
