Of course voting can change things, for example I'm sure the people of Iraq would have loved to vote a new leader when Saddam Hussein was in power, but couldn't.
Actually, Iraq went to the polls last year. Saddam won with a swing of almost 0.1% of the vote.

Look for the bits where they talk about deploying biological weapons to attack certain genetic types, the part where they claim North Korea, Iran & Iraq are seeking to dominate their own regions - against the US's interests - and the part where they say that ramping up their ability to attack anyone at will will be a slow process, short of some sort of Pearl Harbor type event.
The world's richest man has taken a swipe at the speed of broadband Internet network roll-out in Australia, suggesting that Australians are paying far too much for access on that cable that was put in by Telstra and Optus.
No, you're thinking Austria. Australia is between the Pacific and Indian Oceans - just under Indonesia. Nothing to do with Germany.
No one tell your President though, we're seriously expecting him to touch down in Austria later this month on his whirlwind visit to Thank Prime Minister John "Major" for his help in that illegal invasion a few months back.
"If someone's been lying in burning jet fuel for three months, it's harder to figure out," Cash says. "DNA is relatively fragile stuff."
Oh Please! Most of the jet fuel burned up in the initial fireballs.
The rest would have been gone before the towers came down.
Does this guy think someone was pumping it in to keep the fires going??

If I was working for a company that was building a voting system, I'd probably be inclined to have something sarcastic along those lines in my sig.
And if you worked for me - I'd terminate your tenure with prejudice. If you want to bite the hand that feeds you can starve.
And I'm not even a neo-con.

What's the deal with this post, and the ".Score." (as opposed to "Score") - not to mention the Score (+5)?

I for one would like to welcome our new Chinese Taikonaut overlords, what with their planned moon bases and all.
I'd also like to remind them that as a Slashdot reader, I could be usefull in rounding up others to slave away in their moon mines.
Umm, it did.

Bill Gates raised subtle questions over the power Telstra has had over cable and broadband technologies in Australia.
You'd hope so, but look at what happened to Homer Simpson.
1) Setup IE unpatched list.
2) Wait for Micro$oft to come knocking.
3) ?????

He's talking about an original thing in the Region of Australia. In my dictionary - that's origional.
According to Bennito Musolini, "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power"
