Well, no. He does spend a lot of text describing how to let your enemy hang himself with a noose of his own making, starving an enemy out by capturing his supplies, using captured enemy forces, and exploiting the sensitivities of your foe. The closest reference I can find is to employ spies you intend to be captured (doomed spies), and make sure what they know is exactly what you want the enemy to think.
But annoying people are generally to be dismissed, executed, or sent off to die on some god forsaken hill.
Provide me with evidence to the contrary. I have fossils, radio-carbon dating, geology, the presence of DNA in all living cells, and the ability to compare DNA between different species.
You have an oral tradition, committed to text 2500 years after the fact, and at least 3 times removed from its original language and context. (For the record, ancient hebrew could only count up to 40 until the introduction of a hindi-arabic numbering system around 300 BC.)
Ironically all this scientific evidence on our side is concrete proof of a divine creator. While we can describe WHAT happened, we don't know HOW it happened. The patterns defy random chance. So while we may be quibbling about what the exact mechanisms are, the presence of a divine creator who continues to influence the development of his creation has never been in doubt.
And those aren't my ideas. These are from Charles Darwin himself.
Actually there is a pretty good metric for measuring Linux users: weblogs. Many browsers, in addition to reporting the brand of browser, also report the OS the browser is running under. Most geeks hit the same sites as non-geeks, especially when it comes to news, search engines, and the like.
An interesting note, the entire order of Dinosaurs started as bipedal. Over time the large herbavores slouched back onto all fours, but you can still see elements of their biped past.
Let's see. Creation happend (according to the Hebrews) 5700 years ago. Written Hebrew was adapted from the Phoenecian writing system around 1100 BCE. The Torah, in it's present form, wasn't compiled until 90AD.
Needless to say, you have 2500 years in which the creation story was oral tradition. You have 1200 year in which the texts lived as a collection of scrolls. In the process of compiling the Torah, they ended up throwing a lot of other religious texts out.
And you Bible banging Christians take note. The Torah is the basis for the Old Testament.
It is an important and popular fact that things are not always as the seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, man had aways assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he has achieved the wheel, New York, wars and so on - whilst all the dolphins has ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the doplhins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man - for precisely the same reasons.

The part of the brain resposible for balance is the Cerebellum. It really hasn't changed much since we left the trees. Various structural changes in our skull allowed the cerebrum (frontal lobe) of the brain to grow larger.
Neanderthals and many species of proto-humans had flat foreheads, but walked upright.
The adaptation that allows our skull to contain our nice big brain is actually a mutation that keeps our skull in the same shape as an infant ape's. (Apes have a round skull at birth, but the forehead flattens out during maturity.)
So not only are we brain damaged monkeys. We are immature brain-damaged monkeys.
Well if you are going to trouble to spoof a MAC address, then you have already figured out how the switching equipment is going to magically route packets to two places at once.
What? You mean those goofy numbers are actually important to the level 2 switching equipment...
For the record, cloning the MAC number from your desktop to a broadband router is rather straightforward. Your router is plugged into the same port on the same network, and is merely assuming the ID of your computer.
If you try to have 2 laptops use the same MAC number the switching equipment will generally spit them both out.
Ah heck, just compromise the laptops when they are back in the wilds of the Hotel network, then have them phone home once they get inside. Won't be hard. Just put a billboard to a porn site up outside the hotel that points to a server that exploits and IE flaw.
Well considering you have a Republican President, a Republican controlled House, and a Republican controlled Senate, you would assume that POTUS would have a pretty good idea of what the House and Senate were up to. If the pledge to go to the Moon and Mars were sincere, his staffers would be moving mountains to get funding for the project.
He has rammed spending down congress's throat for wars. A fraction of this effort would be required for space. No, space is not a priority for this president.
The first law of holes is to stop digging. All of these problems were glaringly obvious in 2002. Checking my calendar, it is now 2004. That is a term in the House. And they still aren't effectively dealing with reality.
Truth of the matter is, we don't spend nearly enough on troops. We are short staffed, and we short change those that serve.
We tend to blow billions on contractors, "new and improved" weapon systems, and good old fashioned stupidity.
God help us if we ever had to fight a real war. These fancy weapons we use are paperweights once you start running low on spare parts. And they have really expensive parts.
Future economic growth eh? In what industry? The US is too expensive and the regulatory environment too "harsh" for most large industries.
And by the way. The debt never left. It too 10 years to get spending back in line with revenue. The eliminated the DEFICIT, we still haven't cut into the DEBT. It's like getting a pay raise and not paying off your credit cards.

Actually FARK can drop a site in 5 minutes. I think the slashdot record is 10.
My problem with Windows is what people DO know how to do with it remotely.

A the quadruplex, trying to make sound engineers out of people who can't wire an outlet.

Construction unions would take umbrage at the phrase for sure.

Ah the consumer Internet appliances. Trying to make network engineers out of people that can't program their VCRs.
Well at least it would, but I wound up disabling all that so the CEO could get on E-Bay.
I hear you on that. Regime change begins at home.

Bush is fscking delusional. He would propose raising funding for "Worshipers of the Sun God Ra" if he thought it would win him votes.
