Are you sure he just didn't know it by the name "graph paper"? I can't imagine that you could make it through high school without at least seeing it a few times.
He knew what I was talking about, he just had never used it.
Not entirely unrelated question about high school math: A couple
of weeks ago I was out with my little brother who recently turned
18 for a beer and to shoot pool. He was having trouble making
shots so I said "Imagine the table is a large sheet of graph paper
when you plan your angles and shots." he said "I've never used graph
paper."
He's graduating from Grade 12 this year, am I just a
relic[0]? What do schools use now to teach geometry? I hope it's not all
done on a computer, the practical hands-on stuff is
invaluable.

could still get wood.
once the power is cut there's minimal chance of shocks to everyone. Remember that the people in the car aren't likely to be wearing rubber gloves. Also the chance of spark induced fires would plummet.
Yet another
crippling bombshell hit already beleaguered Intel microprocessor
community today when Ars
Technica (and Netcraft) confirmed that AMD sold more processors
than Intel for the week ending April 24th. Coming on the heels of a
recent survey which indicated people like saving money when buying a
computer this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along:
Intel is collapsing in complete disarray.
You don't need to
be a Kreskin to predict
Intel's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Intel faces a bleak
future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Intel because
Intel is dying.Things are looking very bad for Intel. Their offices
are dark, the tomb-like sepulchral atmosphere is all that remains.
Intel continues to lose market share, red ink flows like a river of
blood.
The Intel development team is also dead, its corpse turned over to
yet another charnel house. All major surveys show that Intel has
steadily declined in market share. Intel is very sick and its long
term survival prospects are very dim. If Intel is to survive at all
it will be among OS dilettante dabblers and hangers-on. Intel
continues to decay. Nothing short of a miracle could save it at this
point in time. For all practical purposes, Intel is dead.
Your aim is slightly off. here let me correct. "It's all about the new BMW I'm going to buy with my golden parachute"
heheheh, well done. I have no problem with people getting rich if they've earned in a way that's equitable to all but getting multi-million dollar bonuses for taking away peoples' livelyhoods? That's just disgusting blood money.

Spybot Search & Destroy [Best spyware cleaner IMHO, also immunizes against re-installation]
Javacool's Spyware Blaster [works well in conjunction with Spybot]
I used to use Lavasoft's AdAware but after it wasn't updated for a while someone recommended Spybot which I've stuck with.
That hasn't helped Microsoft with XBOX sales.
Imagine the effect on the porn industry.
They'll be able to render new skin on Ron Jeremy rather than having to shave his shoulders and back every couple of days?
So John Carmack are you listening? Any chance this can be included in DOOM3?
Sure, add it all in! That way when DOOM3 is finally released it will only be available bundled with a new Cray X1.

The librarians at the resource counter can google better than the guy that wrote the article.
I just can't relax or get into eTexts. Give me the printed word on paper, please.
Likely all their developers. I'll be they haven't fired one lawyer or suit yet.
haha! Not all of it but a high percentage

That's still a concern, hybrids have both a gas or diesel engine and battery power.
Racing cars have a standard placed cut off for the motor/fuel line inside the drivers door for rescuers, why not something like that for the hybrids?

Fact: Intel is dying
My logs and other files that I archive are named "foo_yyyymmdd" so they easily sort by year, month and day. Month/day/year is just stupid.
Their response? Bankrolling SCO for a few more years.
hahaha!
Frickin' hilarious. The mods that hammer you with a "Troll" hit need to get an enema and lighten up. I'm a big BSD fan and loved it.
Why, type in 'earn rupees clicking ads' in Google? you get 25,000 results.
Swell, even AllAdvantage.com is outsourcing.
Yeah, I know their gone
You fucking overbearing asshole americans, you're making being an american very hard for me.
Well, I'm not an American so I think you're being overly sensitive.
Damn you and your 'gnip gnop' sig.
Let's face it, it's not the CEO's taking you Americans' jobs away.
You wrongly assume that I'm an American...
hahahaha! Oh man, I'm a BSD nut and that was absolutely hilarious. :) Thanks for the LOL.
A new worm?Oh, there it is.
