Managing to survive? We managed to survive before cars, but my guess is that you have a car. We also managed to survive before antibiotics and vaccines, but my guess is that you don't have a problem using them. Although, I think doctors should carry pagers and cell phones at times that doesn't really matter. Just because we managed to survive without something before is not a reason to not use it now.

NaCl is not the only salt. KCl is another salt and is sodium free. I believe low sodium salt is a combination of NaCl and KCl. It seemed to taste a lot more salty. It may of been a placebo affect, but it was intersting anyways.
They rotate between male and female names. Do you remember Hurricane Hugo, Bob, Andrew? All names are not female. Just Rita and Katrina were odd numbered storms.
With the increase of interventional cardiologist, Cardiac Caths, drug eluding stents, and other technology, cardiologist are doing "percutaneous CABGs" and fewer and fewer people need a bypass now. Cardiac surgeons are hungry for business. The ones in my area do Botox and other things on the side to suplement their income.
I just called my credit card company. I told them to block all charges from AOL. This was after they told us we were cancelled and billed us anyways. The credit card company said they get this a lot, and they will cancel the charge on the card and put a block so that AOL will never be able to put a charge on the card until the block is lifted.
Apparently you were never a student at Duke. Sure there will be a lot of students that never use it for its academic purpose. But I am certain there will be many that will listen to their lecture notes while going to the gym hours everyday. I would not be at all surprized if people listen to lectures as they go to sleep. It is all about the "effortless perfection."
Fine I will. I run IPCop on a EPIA 5000. I got the mobo, case, AC-DC adapter, DC-DC power supply, PCI riser card, compact flash to IDE convertor and case (about the size of a text book) for 200 dollars. I got a 2 port ethernet card on ebay for 10 dollars. I use a 128MB CF card I had lieing around. So for 210 dollars (plus the free compact flash card) I get a passively cooled no moving parts firewall. It uses about 14 watts. I could of done it for cheaper if I made my own case and probably shopped around more. But I was happy with a passively cooled, silent, no moving parts firewall running IPCop. I found an image of IPCop online and just had to dd it over and then it booted right up. It has VGA and even RCA and S-Video output. All in all I am very pleased. I only have 64 MB of ram and it could probably use 128, but other then very please. Oh, that reminds me. I had the 64MB of ram lieing around as well.

I like the message that exim gives warning that it is not authorized to deliver bulk email. Guess he forgot to read that part.
AOL has waited to long to make this jump. A lot of users have switched to using other clients rather then the AOL client. Millions of people use the AOL client and many of them download other software attempting to alter the client such as AIM+ which allows you to eliminate the ads as well as ad logging. However, if AOL released a client that allowed plugins as well as skins, many people would of not switched to other clients. They could of even kept their ads and (tried) to make it so they couldn't be removed. However, some programmers would create a skin or a plugin rather then creating a new client. And it would be easier for novice users to download a skin and not to learn how to use a new client. I believe that is why winamp has been so popular over the years. Yes, it doesn't have ads, but without plugins or skins I would say it would of been a minority in the market share long ago. One of the main reasons I have switched to GAIM is the plugin support.
I feel that the only good laws are ones that can be enforced to a reasonable degree. If we had no police officers that gave speeding tickets, then having speed limits would not do any good. I feel that higher level encryption can be had by anyone that wants it. They can just download it from anywhere. The only things that keeps people from illegally downloading it is a little message that says "If you don't live in the US, please download the suckier version." You don't have to be evil just to circumvent the system and get higher level encryption. Anyone can just click the button to download it. Therefore, I don't think this law should be in place as there is no way to enforce it.
Every year I have to pay 17.50 for the my schools ethernet service. And for the entire school year I get unlimited bandwidth over the 100Mbit network. I am not sure the exact bandwidth, but I have downloaded over 6.0Meg a minute. They also guarantee a satic IP for all four years unless you change your network card and then you can call in and have them change it. And you can run whatever kind of server you want, as long as it is non-profit. After all, I only use the internet for academic purporse of course. The only problem is what to do for the 4 months during the summer. It is probably cheaper to go to summer school then to get a highspeed connection.
I got to Duke, and frankly I thought failing my physics exam was bad. Imagine coming back from an exam and the FBI waiting at your door. Hmmm...I can see it now...
"Dear Proffessor,
I am writing this email to you from a computer lab, and I was wondering if I could have an extension as the FBI confiscated my computer which had my term paper as well as 5,000 illegal movies on it."
I have over 100 GB of hard storage, however most of that is mp3s, videos, and other things that do not change. I have burned on CD all of my mp3s and other things that don't change, but I don't want to live without if my hard drive goes down. Then every night I have a script that does an incremental backup and zips it, PGPs it, and then ftps it to my friends hard drive, both at college with a fast connection and a 100 miles apart. Also once a week I do a full backup. I figure the chance of both of are computers getting struck by lighting, bruning in a fire, or failing at the same time is pretty rare.
Its not the best of all solutions, but I don't have anything I would die without and it was really cheap (free).
That may be a remote backup however, if the box is still plugged into the wall it can still get struck by lightning. If these two computers are in the same building this could be a problem. However, if they are far enough away that a strike will not affect the other computer then yeah, I agree it sounds like a good idea. I may be wrong, but my house got hit by lighting and all of our TVs, stereos, VCRs got fried, even the stuff that was plugged into a surge protector. Just a thought from a young to be Electrical Engineer.
I was thinking this would be perfect to use as a home entertainment center. You would be able to play DVDs and play games. I am not sure if this is possible, but could you play divx movies off either cd or the hard drive? How about mp3s? You could control it through the network. But if you are able to play DVDs, divx movies, mp3s, audio cds, PS2 games, linux games and control it over the network all while being relatively cheap, and in a small form factor case. Sounds like I will deffinetely have to get one. I am not sure how copy right protection works with sony, so I am not sure if this would work.

Verizon is not GSM therefore not much would be gained if they shared with Cingular, T-Mobile, etc.

Well if you need to to to the bathroom and the toilet is dirty. Just transport the dirty toilet to /dev/null and replicate a clean one.
Well you can always just copy your friends money and then just go buy your own. But I guess they might make that illegal too.
