EatHam pointed out that he saw no problem combining creationism & evolution. I think he may be confusing the idea that God created everything with the actual hard creationism that you're talking about. It's hard sometimes to be precise because the hard creationists have done a lot to make it seem like their view is the only one consistent with God's creation, even though you and others clearly demonstrate that is not the case.
This gives us a beautiful opportunity to demonstrate the advantages of open source over closed source when it comes to bugfixes. I'm really interested to see the results and whether reality lives up to rhetoric.
Interesting. I have always wondered why the fondue recipe on the web site always turns out runny unless I add a couple extra ounces of cheese. Perhaps this is the reason?
You've gotten one side of the story from someone who 1) whines and 2) clearly has an axe to grind. Why should you assume anything about it is based on a "legitimate concern"? It sounded to me like one of the level 2 techs "fucking bitch" who shot his plantronics, not management, was the one who said that only level 2 techs get toys. A real authoritative source, eh?
He ASSUMES that it's because of some screw-off idiot co-worker. If that were really true, why didn't he sue? He didn't get fired because of the bloody plantronics incident, at least that's not how I read it. Quite honestly, he's got a self-righteous attitude problem a mile wide, and I wouldn't want to work with the sob. I've known 16 year olds with more mature attitudes. My assumption is he got fired with good reason (most companies don't just fire you because someone doesn't like you, given the lawyer happy culture we're in), possibly related to his bad attitude.
Score 3 insightful? How about -1 has rod up butt. Nobody actually PLAYS with the toys in cubicles now that the bubble has burst. But they still impress the casual visitor...
All of the community colleges I went to (and I went to more than 2) had aspirations of reaching the rung of University. Aurora College in Aurora IL which is now... Aurora University... was a premier example. Perhaps not every College everywhere, but I'd bet the ones who are doing more than just struggling to make enrollment for the next term....
Bruno and Sexy Losers (talk about opposites) and User Friendly. Bruno in particular has several "dead trees" editions available at the moody cow cafe (link on page), and definitely tells a story better paced than MT (not to diss Piro too much, I like MT just fine). Chris Baldwin is a hella nice guy to boot.
I think, though, that IBM will get moving on this problem around the
year 1995, if only so that the society on which they depend for profits
will continue to exist.
How prescient some people were back then:-)

We don't need to scrap the constitution, we need to scrap the byzantine maze of laws that has grown up around it, many of which directly contradict the basic principles of the document. Leave the constitution and all the amendments in place, and start everything else over from scratch.
Not only is he not a sci-fi writer, he's usually not very funny, so Adams is doubly safe. Pratchet writes comedy for fantasy geeks who have run out of Xanth novels to read.
As opposed to novels that don't have endings. Adams was very good at that no-denoument thing.
I just want to say that I an 100% behind your request for time instead of having to answer to a horde of mad slashdot zealots wielding pitchforks when you've had no time to investigate. Not all of us here are so quick to assume the worst.
Good luck in your discussions with the PHB's that be.

Not all (in fact if I recall correctly MOST) chemical reactions are not reversable.

What you been smokin, boy?
This is only one example of US rights trampling.
Drug laws. QED. They may not have the means to enforce them as strictly as they like, but damn if they don't try most of the time.

Did you bitch when they interviewed Wesley Crusher, er, Wil Wheaton? Alton is at least as relevant, as a food geek rather than an actor geek.

Front line support people with martyr complexes don't do much good for the company's image.

Good to see I won't have to put up with your martyr attitude any time soon.

And they're not likely to make the leap from college to university any time soon, with a hair brained scheme like this one.

And there was someone else further on in the thread who actually got the date & time right.

Nice troll. Many of us were born when LSD was in full swing, thank you very much.

hey, two slices of bread and a slice of kraft all-american cheese is all you need in a sandwich, right?
