p.s. Pardon me, whitehatlurker. You didn't say it was the fault of the man who was killed, others did. It is easier to reply to a bunch of separare posts at once. I replied to your post because you discovered that the accident happened in Tennessee.
Why does it not surprise me that this happened in Tennessee? Because I've worked in Tennessee. Occupational safety doesn't really figure in down here. There is law, but there is common practice. If the circumstance is anything like what I've experienced in industrial positions in Tennessee, the man was pulled in from another department to complete a task he wasn't trained for, and given 15 minutes to complete a task which requires 30 minutes to complete safely. It's like the first time I operated a forklift, when no-one showed me how: in the minutes it took to get used to the reversed steering I could have accidentally brained someone.
The psychology that allows this is a result of the prevalent health-and-wealth religious beliefs of the area. That is, that disease and want affect only those who are spiritually lacking. It is not often expressed in those words, but the assumptions that support beliefs are not often expressed in words.
What does this personal, anecdotal post have to do with counterfeit chips? Very little. But having worked in the area, I can't sit quietly while people state that the accident was the fault of the poor sap who got killed.
Hrm, if I could remove this post I would, upon the realization that 10,000 other bands could make the exact same post. Please forgive my unintended spam, since it was made in the spirit of enthusiasm and not self-promotion. I simply wanted to show that anyone who wanted to publish their music online could do so very easily.
Then look at ours. We are only getting started (two months active), but here we are in our beginnings. We are doing it on our own, and with flac no less.

The only songs emusic has encoded at 128 are recordings made before the advent of stereo in 1958. LAME encodes mono recordings at near 128. Double the bitrate for stereo equivalency.
To list a few that have drug-screened me: Staffmark, UPS, Blockbuster Music, a regional grocery chain, and a local dairy. The only jobs that have not tested me are burger joints and an adult video store. Maybe things are different here in the Southeast states, but my thought is that screening is primarily for those jobs that promise entry into the middle class, and not jobs for those people who are already middle class or upper.
Additionally, none of these jobs required operating heavy machinery. The only ones that required handling sensitive information were temp.

Did anybody else read that as trivaselinalone?
The new releases list still works, they've only stopped linking to it from the new releases page.

It should be "more so." Not that spell-check is ever to be trusted.
