iirc, then No they won't go bankrupt... because they don't have to pay for the domain until after the (iirc) 5 years... and if they release it before the time window expires, they don't have to pay at all.
Meanwhile the Comedy Channel has gone from a dirt-broke cable backwater that mostly featured stand-up comedians in comedy clubs, old sitcoms, and a few forgettable homebrew series... to an utterly foul-mouthed travesty of toilet humor, sex humor, and tragedy humor dominated by high production values, social commentary disguised as comedy, a whole mess of puerile garbage with too many saving graces to be ignored, and some of the most controversial, hilarious, foul, and intelligent programming currently on television.
I'm having trouble telling your actual point. do you approve or disapprove of the Comedy channel?
Incidentally, I have a running bet going with a few people that, very shortly after leaving office, if the show still stands, Bush will finally make an appearance on The Daily Show. He's had every other living president...
If GW Bush ever agrees to be on the Daily Show it will only be with the condition there be no cameras, no recordings of any kind, no note-taking, and he'll have to have Dick Cheney there to actually do all the talking.:-/
The main question is now, is intelligence in any way still being selected for? If it isn't, then it seems likely that there will be a backwards slide in human intelligence until the situation changes.
I don't know what the grandparent meant, but I personally have had no luck getting tabular data back out of PDF documents after trying several of the tools out there. So, while PDF is portable in the "read it anyplace" sense, it's not very portable in the "doing something programatically with the contents" sense:-(
I recall reading about a Nobel prize winner's acceptance speech that included this anecdote.
Once, when he was very young, he spilled a pitcher of juice (milk?) all over the kitchen while trying to serve himself a drink. Instead of yelling at him, his mother helped him clean it up. She then filled the pitcher with water and took him outside and told him "The way you did it before didn't work very well, how else can you hold and pour so you don't spill?"... encouraging him to experiment.
In the speech, he thanked his mother for helping him win the science prize by teaching him to try new approaches when his attempts failed... and not to fear mistakes.
I really liked that story when I first heard it (and try hard to practice the same type of teaching with my own children). I wish I knew which prize winner it was so I could read or listen to his entire acceptance speech (and see if I'm remembering that story correctly)
I've had good luck with housing in Pavonia/Newport NJ (pretty much anywhere along the PATH line would probably be good) and also in Washington Heights (Near the GWB). Both areas had very reasonable rent and an easy commutes to the financial district.

I really like Unlocker. A little freeware explorer extension that shows you what processes have locked a file, and lets you choose what to do about it.
I also live in the United States (legally able to work, but not a citizen which I believe gives me a measure of objectivity that many citizens seem to lack). Off the top of my head, it looks like we've/you've lost the:
Right to assemble (esp. when trying to do so anywhere near the President. You're required to assemble in "Free Speech zones" which are fenced enclosures with lots of security cameras pointing at them... several miles away from the prez. I suppose this doesn't mean you've lost the *right* to assemble... but it's so profoundly chilling that you might as well have. I believe this practice was started by Clinton)
protection from unreasonable search and seizure and the implied right to privacy
right to due process (if you're "vanished" as a suspected terrorist or if you're blocked from traveling due to being placed on a secret watch list)
Right to trial by jury (likewise if the government labels you a "terrorist")
Protection from cruel and unusual punishment (possibly lost... according to rumours out of the secret detention centres like "Gitmo")
Right to travel (implied by the 9th amendment)
Right to face your accuser and to be presented with all the evidence to be used against you in a trial.
Right to actually *have* a trial
Some of those were under attack during the Clinton era, but nothing like what I see now.

We already know that Billy Pustule is going to win the Presidency.
... So I'm not worried about voter fraud in the primaries.

Mike Judge... is that you? :-)
When I was in school, computer classes were on Apple ][. But everyone still used IBM-compatibles once they entered the "real" world.
Why should it be any different now just because it's OLPC-Linux vs WinXP? Just because many of us use Linux and like to bash MS?

It should also be impossible to accidentally place fully operational nuclear weapons on an attack plane.

"What's the difference between Gateway and HP?"
:-/
Gateway gleefully enters small claims court against their own customers.
HP spies on it's own board members and the journalists covering HP's poor business practices.
I'd buy 2 or 3 of these right now if they were available.
...and don't infringe on existing patents
and most of the rest of it is crappy YouTube flicks
