why refight every battle every time it comes up? Lawyers bring up older cases and argue that this one is close enough to the older cases that the same judgement should apply. Judge agrees with what he sees as the closest, may choose a different one, or may go out on a limb and make a new judgement. (vastly simplified I know)
VCR? what about ovens, microwaves, car dash clocks? I can't Abide wrong clocks. I once set the oven clock at a friend's house, only to realise she might be using it as a world clock to track her bf's local time half way around the world. She hadn't thought of doing that though, just didn't ever look at the oven clock. It's like bad cabling, it just niggles every time you see it or think about it.
True, but some games don't have Armor and Life indicator, at least the ones I like to play. World War II Online is a particular favourite, having very realistic physics, units and damage models. If you're infantry and get shot, you're pretty much always dead, bleeding out, or badly crippled.
Highly realistic damage models (when combined with well-balanced game-play) can give a more realistic experience and thus lead to more militarily useful skills. Ducking when you see a tank (or even other forces) and calling in the contact is more useful than picking your heaviest weapon and just blazing merrily away trusting in your body armour to protect you until the kill.
Always enjoyed the episodes they'd shipped to Australia, here's hoping they by the second series and I don't have to use valuable ISP bits to bring it to my eyeballs.
I dunno, what about farmers producing corn for ethanol rather than wheat for food production? Straight opportunity cost for a farmer, set amount of land, what gives them the best return on their time/investment/land usage? If corn pays more than wheat per acre, they're going to produce corn and drive up wheat prices due to scarcity.

pity noone figured out what you meant, 's good joke
perhaps you'd be interested in the first comment about this review, posted 12 minutes before this one?

Whereas most main-stream religions are quite happy for you to encourage your entire family and everyone you know to join up.
You wouldn't happen to have documented that build project would you? Even a full parts list would go a long way.

Wait, you're alleging the Amish(!) use a website to organise barn-raisings? Linky to prove?
