In true Drudge style. This is getting crazy. I think they are just trying to make the world a place where it will be impossible to boycott their products because they are everywhere.
What are you talking about? The Pentagon Papers MADE the Washington Post. Before that and Watergate imediately following the Post was just a simple home towm newpaper. The decision to publish the story was made by the owner of the company not the lowly reporter. Profit was for sure a big motive.
Well you are lucky. Down in Florida with all the old people, you do not have to worry about "the children" as much as us in the big bad mid-atlantic. Also the old folks are an effective speed limit in and of themselves!!!
While you may give you your right, I hereby retain my right to privacy. There are a million reasons I would like to keep it.
one is that I wouldn't want to have the MPAA ask for a public record to be destoryed (the police video) after I walk about town with my "Got DeCSS" shirt on. I mean someone might just use the FoIA and request that video and use the code on my back to make a player so that they could watch DVD's on their Commodore PET and then the MPAA would be out big $$$ from this unlicensed player. Then the MPAA would obviously go out of business from this loss of revenue. Then how would AWESOME movies like the Mummy retures ever come to a "theater near you"
So cameras if there are on every street corner how is this not "folowing me around?" Sounds like harassment to me. I would hate to look like a some bad dude and get stopped twice a day.
They forgot signing me in to the deal. It is I the user that is supplying all the real product, why with my harddrive space sending out files over my bandwidth. Where is my cut?
I had a 1993 Dodge Stealth that I just sold. One time on an open streach of I-95 at 3AM I decided to open her up. Got to 125, felt like there was more there, but it wouldn't go any higher. I am thinking if there wasn't a governer it probaly would have gotten to 140.
I am just as happy that it ONLY went 125 anyway.

Maybe if I code a virus on my palm 7 and upload it to the internet then I will be ok... But if I hot sync via com port on the palm III then the full weight of the law cometh down on me...
Hummm sounds like futher enhancment of the digital divide.
I just bought my self a Honda Civic. I was intending on buying a VW GTI VR6 (a suped up golf) but had such a hard time finding it I gave up. Now if there is a site I can go to check current dealer invintories aroudn the country for specific make/model/trim/color someone should let me know.
A Microsoft Windows ME upgrade cost around $90/US the entire OS is upwards of $120. Windows ME is nothing more than a Windows 98 upgrade, which means the amount of work that went into it was relatively minimal, so how does one justify the cost?
Ummmmmm... Microsoft charges what the market will bare. 100% unabashed capitalism right there. Why does a Micky Mantle Baseball card go for $50,000? I mean you could sell it for about 1.1 cents and STILL make a 10% profit. But would anyone do that? No you will sell it for what the market will bare.
Here is the fix. Build about 5 Nuke power plans in Nevada where we did nuke testing in the 40's and 50's. The Environmentalists can complain too much about building them there because environmentaly that area is already mess up for quite a long time.
Well nuclear war actualy has been prevented by have more nuclear weapons. The only time they have been used in war is when only one country had them.
Think before speeking.

Try using periods. You will sound more intelligent that way.

What comes to mind is two words... Paperless Office.
That didn't real happen now did it. Computers just made us consume more paper.
