  9. Re:Any tax revolt is a good one. on Newegg Defies New York Sales Tax Law · · Score: 1

    NY screws their own !
    I live 10 miles from the New Jersey border and buy everything from Soda (No 5 cent Deposit) to Gas $.40-50 cheaper AND they pump it for you (NJ has a law that customers can't touch the pumps) there.
    The tax rate for most of the NY metro area is 8.875% where NJ is 7% and Connecticut is 6%, even better is there are a couple of boroughs that only charge 3% tax.

    It's ridiculous, and when I saw the notice on Newegg's page last week I was happy to know that a retailer (a fairly well known one to boot) is saying NO to NY. I am tired of my money being used as a way for the Elected people to feel better about themselves.

    Go Newegg !

    I had no idea that there were countries that had a more fucked up system then what they keep telling us we have here in the U.S.(Micheal Moore & the movie "Sicko")

  24. My take on cancer treatments(been there done that) on Matching Cancers With the Best Chemical Treatments · · Score: 2, Insightful

    From TFA "Another issue is that the 60 cell lines did not include all important cancer types (for example, certain bladder cancers, lymphomas, and small cell lung cancers were not among the 60 lines studied)."

    Soooo. My wife (Lymphoma when she was 32) and me (Small cell Lung Cancer at 37) aren't included. My treatment was with chemo drugs that have been in use for 30+ years (VP-16 & Cisplatin) with Chest Radiation. It really sucks that there aren't any new treatments for anything except Breast Cancer these days.
    I would liked to know that advances in SCLC could give me more time than the (only 5% make it to 5 years) and I am 1 year into it.

    I don't want to sound sour but everytime I see a cancer story on /. I hope it will eventually help someone to not go through the hell that is cancer treatment because it doesn't do anything for me
