I was going to comment, but I get tired of being chastized for 'correcting the teacher.' Did you even bother to proofread your post? Or was it your purpose to obfuscate?
So, if a private citizen were to site this as a defense in legal procedings...?
"By highlighting the above our intention is not to get anyone into trouble, and for that reason we masked out the end of the IP addresses to avoid a witch hunt. An IP address is not a person, IP addresses can be shared among many people, and anyone can be behind a keyboard at any given time."
Where do they get these numbers?
I am among the 18-49 demographic;
I don't recall anyone asking me this year or last year whether I watch or even own a tv;
I for one, was around in 1975, and
I don't recall anyone asking me back then, either.
Yes, I know what a correlation coefficient is.
Additionally, I belong to several paid internet survey sites, which
earn me several hundred dollars every year answering questions
about products and services I have or use and none of them ever
asked me whether I have or even own a tv.
What was their resource base, a town of 5,000 people near
Salem, Massachusetts?
Plenty interesting, indeed. And thanks for the procedural insight, I'm sure I'm not the only one who can benefit from that.
Truth be told, I was only jesting about the quality of the neutrinos used, whether they were cheap imports, and that maybe CERN should have used neutrinos from German manufacturers, or even US manufactured stock.
Still, I'd just love to see some information entropy data, and
I hope this whole development doesn't turn out to be a simple case of some spoon in a glass of water.
So, Einstein was wrong. Big deal. I've been telling people that for years.
The rules in the third dimension don't necessarily apply to that which exists in the fourth.
Of course, there is the remote chance those particular neutrinos are from the same experiment
10,000 years from now...
Where, exactly were those neutrinos made?
Did they lose any information?
...does not mean the Government can break into your house and read the copy you made. Conversely, the fact that the recipient of the mail does not have Fourth Amendment rights in the copy does not mean that the government can break into the recipient's house to read the original.
Further, the sender does not give up any copyright protection and it does not mean the recipient can copy or has copyright protection, but that the recipient has the responsibility to refuse to copy for third-parties i.e., "Sam."
IMHO it is a dangerous mistake, and a premature one, to elevate the status of the internet to that of a life-form; the internet is neither designed nor intended to serve any purpose but to benefit its creators - the human species - as a tool as well as a toy, be this by bettering the quality of life for species other than our own, the environment or the devices of, by, from or relating to its sovereign specie. It is an artiface, nothing more. That much having been said, I feel we should commend ourselves as [that] uncontested sovereign species, focusing on how better to impact our evnvirons, than change the natural laws of physics for light and transient causes. The nomination may seem innocous, but I find it entirely frivolous and I hold it in contempt.

Until presently, I'd always assumed it was a requirement for membership.
Sadly, it has occurred to me just now, that story was indeed in book form
and therefore is likely no longer considered pertinent by trolls and the like.

Good point, Michael, but some one or some thing, rather, is going to have to concede open-source technology has not been invented, yet, and the Foundation for Law and Government has been caught between the driver's seat and the necessary *kit analogy* improvised 'ergonometric' modifications.
That, or the flux capacitor needs a whole new interface.
For example, Nintendo resumes mass-production of
both the left-and-right *Powerglove* (in pairs, this time, if
such a small detail could be at all advantageous)
and augments the so-called 'unwieldly monstrosities'
with *smell-o-vision* -- thus, a very real - and effective - Grip of Death.

huh. the caps for the acronyms got me a warning:
Filter error: Don't use so many caps. It's like YELLING.
well, good luck with that, too.
Amen, Amen, I say to you!
fireteller2, you are obviously one to understand thoroughly
the pragmatic benefits of 3D animation rendering via the net.
As a hobbyist, I can appreciate the ability to send the many
thousands of frames comprising a 5 minute sequence to a
more advanced farm with larger capacity than my i7 940
could -- or even should -- be expected to endure.
Add to that, the ability of such inexpensive wonders as
Grid for Carrara and LuxRender to bring to bring to bear
the tools for effects and quality everyone wants, but until
recently had been locked away in some dungeon alongside
scores of humans, hand-painting individual celophane sheets
for somebody else's amusement.

Right. I think I'll just patent the process by which an apple falls from a tree.
Does General Hammond know about this?

tl;dr
What an insightful way to show that YOU get the reference without actually giving ANY information to others on what the reference is. Jackass.
I did not mean to impute; however, and after having been modded 'Troll,' in retrospect: Point taken.
Now, shall we dispense with this business of stoning and getting stoned...?
[And] read 'books.' If not, do you have a sister?

I read somewhere (Dante, I suppose) that there exixt special accomodations for lawyers and the like.
fixed that.
What's this on your shirt...
Hey, look over there...
The technology may mean the end to rude people, if it's not impolitic of a person to point that out.
and Wi-Didthey?
There's an app for that.

improvised 'ergonometric' modifications
Thanks, K.I.T.T.--
This detachable hover-mouse on the shifter fits like a glove.
