GPL arguably has more complex goals than BSD, so it really isn't realistic to expect the GPL to be simpler than, or even as simple as, the BSD licence.
Making sure that your licence is as short as possible, without compromising your goals, is always good; but compromising your goals just to make your licence simpler is perverse at best.
Complexity isn't the issue with the GPL: it's the legalese. And because of the legalese, I am not confident to use it or any software using that license for commercial use without legal advice; which increases the cost of using GPL software on a commercial level. This extra cost is factored in when evaluating and comparing against software under other licenses.
The Caribbean operations backing his bonds just announced US$505 million in operating profit (earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation), double the year-earlier figure, on US$1.6 billion in revenue for the year ended in March.
And if you subtract the interest, is the company still making a profit? Red flag: mentioning Operating profit as opposed to profit.
Another red flag: In April O'Brien was in the midst of a five-day, four-country visit (via his Gulfstream G550) to keep tabs on his assets.
Interesting. A private jet.
He's in poverty stricken countries. He's grabbing lots of market share as fast as he can with dubious earnings potential (what? will he take a chicken as payment if these poverty stricken folks can't pay?). He's doing all of this with other people's money.
Does that sound like another business plan we've heard of? Maybe 7 or 8 years ago?

That's why I find that spewing complete nonsense, with some kernel fact and truth, therapeutic. I think if I get good enough, I may get an editorial job at CNN or Fox News.
Which brings me over to the question "what is an IT person?"
You're one when your pay comes out of the IT department's budget - even if you sweep floors. Get paid out of the finance budget and then your in Finance.
talks about the separation of the three branches of Government and about what our Founding Fathers wanted for this country.
Would anyone by any chance have a script that will email this to every single Congressman and everyone in the Whitehouse. It's a cartoon so Bush will understand it too.

I've wondered about that myself. Here's a country that has a shit load of oil, great tourism trade, and like China, has a bunch of manufacturing from the US. So what's the deal? Why is there so much poverty. So, I started think'n. Not a good idea usually, but never the less, it happens.
Mostly a dysfunctional and corrupt Government. But why do the people allow it to stay in power?
That's because the rich folks like it that way. Mexico has a HUGE disparity between rich and poor (we're getting there ourselves) and one of the reasons is because the rich are rich and they want to stay that way.
What will change it? A revolution. It may not have to be bloody, but a huge shake up. Maybe, they can get away with a small one like we had in the 1930s. But, Mexico will need their own Roosevelt. Now, I know there's some criticism about him and how his policies didn't necessarily do anything. But that's not the point. The point is folks perceived a change. The thought that finally, there needs were being addressed.

The chip then sends radio signals to a larger device carried by the client with a global positioning system in it.
Call me crazy, but I think I found a flaw in their system.
Katherine Albrecht, a U.S. consumer privacy activist, says the chip is a flashy, overpriced gadget that only identifies a person and cannot locate someone without another, bigger GPS device that kidnappers can easily find and destroy.
Go down the hall in the asylum, and ask Katherine about her new meds.
It's sounds more and more like the MBTA is just trying to cover up their mistake. This has nothing to do with public safety or stealing rides on the transit system.
Especially this part:
They're filing a lawsuit right now, basically, and nobody's in court for usâ"just MBTA lawyersâ"and we don't fully know what's going on.
Interesting. So, no one at MIT was served or anything. The MBTA just shows up in court to tell their story and theirs alone? And asks for an injunction?
At least they didn't go nuts like the time with the light brites under the bridges.
which requires a statement made under penalty of election falsification (a felony) that you do indeed agree with the principles of the party and desire to be affiliated with them.
Just lie and pick a party. By lying, you are in fact following the principles of either party. Problem solved!
I was once at this new agey type of store, and there were these pyramid shaped Zen Clocks. I thought they were cool but a bit over priced ($99 now $119), especially when you consider that they are just a fancy shape, with a clinky "chime", all around a cheap-ass AA battery powered travel clock. When I asked about an AC one, the clerk informed me that the company doesn't make one because of the "electromagnetic fields" from AC. I chuckled and said it's more like the battery clock inserts are much cheaper.
I walked away in disgust and jealousy for not thinking of such a gimmick.
How are folks verifying and actually proving the ISPs are throttling traffic instead of the traffic being slow because of heavy use in the area? How do you prove something like this to a regulator?

The folks who should be concerned with the GPL are technical folks; not lawyers.

GPL compliance need not be an onerous process.

There's no scientific proof that our way is the universal right!
What's this "science"?
God has said that we are right! Look at our money. It's says "Under God".

Then no one votes and I guess the courts would decide. The courts who are filled with many Bush appointees. What could possibly go wrong?
Actually, I was thinking tech-savvy volunteers would be more tempted to fix the elections when Diebold machines are used.
What do you mean by fix ?

So far, I'm pleasantly surprised by it - the Home edition - I haven't tried any other edition because my XP box is running just fine, thank you.
Who use this buggy, slow Operating System?
George Costanza. That way he doesn't have to work. He just tells his boss that his computer is slow so he can't get much done.

They will also say mean and nasty things about them and hurt their feelings so that they cry on their way home every night.
