So your contention is that the majority are loud-mouth blow-hards and the majority should, therefore, shut up, think and vote?
I hope you aren't waiting to for that to happen. You'd be better waste your time sitting on the street eating donated pizza and babbling - at least you get a free pizza.
If I wanted political change, I'd go with bloody revolution. It, at least, has a reasonable track record of success
I must be spending way too much time watching porn these days. My first thought was that you are some kind of sicko for needing those type of "supplies" at a kindergarten.
It would be rather simple to find out if this was the case - ask her ex-boss if he fired her over them, find out if she was shunned by coworkers over the images, etc.
Surely, the options in those cases would be:
(a) Sue the boss
(b) Sue the co-workers
Or - and this is my favourite - just sue herself. After all, she was the idiot that left them outside.
Personally, I'm sticking with lawsuit-happy money-grabber...
The dichotomy between the decency of the people there, and the corruption of the government is inexplicable
Does decency and politeness excuse ignorance, or complacency? Hell, doesn't the ignorance and complacency bring into question the aforementioned decency?
I know, RTFA is not commonly a part of the commenting procedure in these parts.
But maybe - before posting that, you could *at least* RTLFP (read the last f*n paragraph):

Some of my experiences using Google to run my business:
1. We use Google Docs for all documents. Recently, after an employee left the company we deleted his account. Every document that he shared with the company is still visible in the Docs list, but there is no way to open them. It returns an error. Posts on Google Docs help site have gotten 0 useful responses other than "documents shared with others should still be accessible". They are not. There is no tech support.
2. We use Google Voice. I had business cards printed and the web site changed to use our Google Voice number. After a few customers complained about my disconnected number, I started looking into it. Apparently certain numbers cannot call Google Voice. The entire 941 area code gets "This number is disconnected" when they try to call. Posts on Google Voice help site have gotten 0 helpful responses. There is no tech support.
3. We use Google Adwords to run ads. Recently an employee who was new to the system created a test campaign with up to $10,000 a day limit pointing to www.test.com. Little did he know that campaigns are created in a "Running" state. And, even if you don't authorize Google to extend you credit, they will. Luckily I noticed the problem after only 3000 damage. Google tech support was non-existent. Luckily their collections department was a little more accessible and gave us a 10% discount on our mistake, and closed the account. They also delisted an unrelated website from Google results.
4. We hosted an old web site in Google Page Creator. For months, when we logged into Google Page Creator a message appeared that said something like "Your pages will soon be automatically migrated to Google Sites". When Page Creator was shut down Google nicely migrated the site to garbage and deleted all record of it ever existing.
Oh, put the chair down, Ballmer. We know it's you.
Momentum is the bragging right of the losing side.
But hell, when you are trying to compete using direct copies of a search engine (Bing vs Google), a online mapping service (Bing Maps vs Google Maps), an online office suite (Google Apps vs Office Web Apps) and a web services platform (App Engine vs Azure), "innovation" can hardly be the boast of choice.
Either you really like reading about e-waste, or you had to really Google to find a source to back your pre-conceived notions. Shanghai Scrap - really???

What do you think the "B" in "VB.net" stands for?
You lost me - who deserves the credit for the icons? and who do I blame for the "Usability"?
...that's what I thought when Bush invaded Iraq to avenge 9-11. Before that I just thought he was really stupid.

Your approach is inefficient to start with. Your primary system should be 7-8-9.
Then, use the following conversion chart when you are committing the phone numbers to memory:
1=7 2=8 3=9
4=4 5=5 6=6
7=1 8=2 9=3
And let your muscle memory do the rest.
Problem solved.

If you understood the phenomenon that is Apple right now, you'd think twice before picking a fight.
Apple can be beaten (phones), sometimes even comprehensively (desktop operating systems).
The problem is, HP is a particularly stodgy company, and the contrast between the two companies is striking in this case.
Also, HP's reputation is pig-shit when it comes to support, but that's another story entirely...
This isn't a surprising headline for a news service whose primary audiencIe isn't fond of Americans.
Yeah, but do you guys even have news organisations that aren't accepting money from big pharma in some form or another?
Dude, your sister doesn't count...

This situation is actually more concerning than Oracle becoming arseholes over Java
Oh, they were arseholes long before that.
Larry Ellison is just clever enough to disguise it by acting as a massive douche.

In the US, unemployment benefits are based on what you used to earn???
They are in most of the world.

So, I take it you also don't believe in vaccines or take antibiotics when you get sick, right?
Not when the doctor offered me Hepatitis as the solution to my common cold.

8 years and a bunch of torture, not to mention the difference in Chinese prisons vs American ones.
I will mention it:
8 years being tortured in a Chinese prison vs 5 years being raped in an American prison.
Maybe the Zune mob can stop referring to it as "squirting" now...

Selective application is to be expected, when the man who primarily wrote that kept black slaves.
Yeah, but the flip side of that is Foxconn employees - if they announce it they die shortly after.
