the problem there is day trading. It leaches real value out of the whole system. Ever wonder where the fiscal black hole the Western capitalist states are in has come from? this kind of thing short circuits the economy
Within a very short time frame, businesses would be built up around every institution making sure that they never come close to that and risk being taken over.
In short, it would prevent such institutions from existing.
Everyone that received bail-out money should be broken into smaller entities on a staggered basis when the economy recovers.
and funnily enough here in the UK that is exactly what is being forced on the banks and government by the European Union, those well known purveyors of bad ideas (or not in this case. ..) The nationalised merged entities are being forced to split up. One good mark for europe, not that the anti european lobby in the UK will paint it as that. Personally my concern is that these nationalised banks should be handled in such a way as to maximised the return on investment that we the taxpayer have been forced into providing. Splitting them up is going to cost way more money, and possibly return less to us than other wise may have been the case
Doesn't make a huge difference for those of us using the rc with an evaluation license thats valid through q1 2010 (oh and i got my shipment email 40 minutes ago, guess its time to make the planned hardware changes prior to the new install)
Trust us. Nobody wants or will ever implement your wacky ass restrictions on, for instance, black cars.
Actually stopping people from buying cars that require more energy to keep cool purely because of their colour sounds like a damn good idea and a cheap way to reduce energy usage to be perfectly honest
I'd just point out that the storage and use of it in the case of the shuttle is in a very limited sense in the external tank used immediately after they turn the ground based cooling system off. It's used so quickly that losses are in effect minimised

we're probably talking low end graphics, most probably onboard stuff.

I do hope that the British Libel lawyer ambulance chasers dont come after you! (im british btw)
i was going to say coffee machine personally :)
surely you'd have time to get a fire or 2 going, not sure the wolf would come near then. . .
except for the fact that the carriers' aircraft were pretty useless at strike missions, we aren't talking about a us style carrier group here
didnt think that a lith ion battery needed atmospheric oxygen to burn?

no, you'd ban white or light coloured cars in those environs ;)
a few dollars more for the set, and then magically you end up with a lower energy bill from using it. can't see nayone objecting
moar nukes!! (is this right? ed.)

have you _seen_ my grandmas house?
can i just say that if you 'never touched it since' how do you know what improvement the service packs brought to all of Vista's (numerous) problems?
Catherine will be rather busy then. . .
can someone please mod Rupert's Astroturfing down, it's making me nauseous
stop spouting rubbish mr shill
one question: why??!???
i can see people using it as a line to hide the real reason for their lateness already. . .
That entirely depends on how well engineered the battery is. . .
and i suspect that theres a good chance that some of the banks money may well end up in the hands of the innocent user in this sorry saga
Yeah, the shuttle uses it.
I'd just point out that the storage and use of it in the case of the shuttle is in a very limited sense in the external tank used immediately after they turn the ground based cooling system off. It's used so quickly that losses are in effect minimised
YMMV of course
your money may very well vary!
