On another note I'm an Oracle DBA but I ain't dressing like this?! http://www.dba-oracle.com/dress_code.htm ; The sad thing is I think he's serious. Holy crap. I think he is too.
Niven came up with putting giant fusion motors on Uranus (using the atmosphere as fuel), and maneuvering Uranus so that it pulls Earth into successively higher orbits. That was in _A Planet Out of Time_.
Not that odd. The//e was in production until mid-1993 and some school districts are poor, and there's a certain amount of inertia, especially if the teachers are all used to the old platform.
You've got better evidence than "this dude told me", right?
The first B-2 was delivered to Whiteman AFB on 17 December 1993. The date was chosen because it was the 90th anniversary of the Wright brothers' first flight at Kitty Hawk, NC.
There were "stealth" aircraft serving in the '91 Gulf War, but those were F-117s, not B-2s.
Holy fuck, pardner, don't they teach about paragraphs where you come from?
In short, break each idea into a paragraph of its own. If you've got a few sentences talking about Subject 1, then that's a paragraph. Split it off from the other sentences with a blank line, and indent the first line of each paragraph by 4 to 8 columns. Don't talk about more than one idea per paragraph.
If you did, in fact, write all that in paragraph form, then make sure to post using "Plain Old Text" (in the drop-down next to the "Preview" button); posting as HTML *will* screw paras up unless you use HTML codes like p.
Not that it matters. The congressional GOP will continue to obstruct investigations and enable the Decider, and the Party leadership's wishes are more important than those of the People, especially People who are not rich and powerful contributors.
The other reason why the B-52 is still in service: cruise missiles. The other two heavy bombers can't fire them. There's a study for sticking a rotary launcher in the B-1's bomb bay, but that's expensive and keeps getting delayed.
Re maintenance: O RLY? The B-52 fleet has over 95% readiness rate, because they are a well-understood problem. The B-1 and B-2 have a far lower rate, on the order of 50 to 60%, because they are more complex and less mature (can't get more mature than a 50-year-old aircraft). Plus the '52 is easier to stick new ECM tech into, because the original ECM was so huge that there are nice big ECM bays in the aircraft, and more room equals more room for the ground crew to work; compare working on a stuffed microATX case versus a sparsely-populated full-tower ATX.
Don't get me wrong, the Buffasaurus has its problems, but it's not as bad as you think.
Since the current congress is too spineless, too complicit, and too full of Republicans, I think we'll have to pin our hopes on the next President telling his AG to investigate and pursue criminal charges against those responsible in the Bush Administration and in Congress.
That definitely wouldn't be Clinton (too much of an insider) and it wouldn't be McCain (he's shown he's a good boy after all), and Paul hasn't got a snowball's chance. I can only hope that Obama wouldn't pull a Ford and pardon Bush "so the country can move on".
Back in the day, Mozilla had releases called milestones, M1 to M18. M18 had just been released, and then AOL decided it was time to release a new Netscape. But instead of going with the relatively good M18, they released from a bit earlier on the trunk, which Mozilla retconned as 0.6. 6.0/0.6 was slow and unstable, since it was an early beta, and FLOSS nerds stuck with M18.
From that point, Mozilla releases switched to version numbers; IIRC the next Mozilla release was 0.7 (0.6 was never "official"), and Netscape 6.1 and 6.2 were both released before Mozilla hit 1.0. After Moz was 1.0, NS7 came out, then 7.1 and 7.2 (the latter based on Moz 1.7.3, IIRC, close to Moz Suite's EOL, which was originally planned for around 1.4 or 1.5).
After 7.2 AOL switched to using IE's engine by default.
like all corporations, Yahoo is incorporated in Delaware lol whut
My former boss would be interested to know that his company isn't governed by the laws of Missouri, and I think some Nevada casino owners are giggling at this point too.
So the real question lurking behind it all is just how responsible can anyone be for creating material that will set a lunatic on a bad outburst. No, that's begging the question. Holy shit, someone just used "begging the question" correctly. Pinch me.
I think Star Wars is actually religion for a lot of people. And that's sad. Mainstream religions at least have the excuse that one cannot *prove* that the religion is made up; not so with a movie.
Unless George Lucas really is a prophet and the gods have one whale of a sense of humor, that is.
Unfortunately,/we/ are stupid enough to use Oracle Calendar (though we started before Oracle borged Steltor). We've had so many problems, particularly with PDA syncing, that we're looking at something else.

Uh, no, GGP said that all corporations are incorporated in Delaware. Try reading for comprehension.
NS6 was rushed out, yes.

But I'll grant that IE4 probably was, at least in comparison to Communicator 4. As long as you stayed well away from Active Desktop.

I suppose IAALS == "I am a luser, son".
And with a little more luck, he'll learn all about teabagging.
Best get Stalin and Mussolini too, so that none of them grow powerful enough to conquer.
And then go back to the Decider's days as a useless son of a future president and get *him* as well.
I don't think it's that big, Junior.
But don't worry, it'll grow some once you get your pubes.

Considering the slashtards who think the overlords "joke" is still funny, I'm not surprised.
