I'd like to thank everyone else's congressmen (and congresswomen) for not passing my congressman's bill. I try to vote him out of office every two years, but I always fail.

If you were taught to use the two spaces, you're likely to always use that.
I disagree. Also typing since mid 80s. Switched over to 1 space in the late 90s. Only took about a week to get used to it.
On the other argument, I prefer to tab and let the IDE figure it out, but by mutual agreement I'm replacing my tabs with 3 spaces.
In both cases, what you're saying will tend to cause the opposite to happen.

Not a major disaster, just a global war between three groups of athiests.
Correction, you used to be able to. Now to get any of it to actually work you have to pay $3 a month.

Too much prior art.
The catch is that Righthaven and Stevens Media have now amended their contract. So expect new lawsuits, possibly against some existing defendants.

I'd mod you up for getting a nice Heinlein first post, but you've gone and reversed his name (Valentine Michael Smith)
Why don't we have all traffic signals controlled by a person. Think of the jobs we will create!!!
Pretty sure that if all traffic signals are controlled by a person, we will have created 1 job.
Yes. Transit duration means that the ISS was passing in front of the sun for 0.86s.

I'm always surprised that with the number of dead Chicagoans that voted (still vote?), the actual phrase isn't:

Oh sure, now his next post will be in ALL CAPS.
The first two things that came to mind were the Indiana DST changeover and the Australia study. Then I found this nice Wall Street Journal article that mentions both: http://online.wsj.com/article/NA_WSJ_PUB:SB120406767043794825.html

Going to have to carrying actual cards again.
