That is quite annoying.
I hate it when double-click in mozilla's address bar copys the address into the clip buffer. (really the same problem you are describing)
I also hate how middle click in mozilla attempts to open the clip buffer as a web adress. This is quite a security/privacy violation, as I don't may not want my ISP to know what is in my clipboard just because I accidentally clicked mouse3.
Anyone know how to change this behavior?
I think that there is definitely some truth to your assessment, but I have to disagree with your assertion that all good narratives have an "exact message."
Yeah, the plot of the second movie is especially convoluted. Yeah, a lot of things don't make sense, and I pity the fool who thinks it forms a coherent story. Yet I still loved the movie, and I it sparked a lot of thought in me. There are so many aspects to the movie that none of them ever become central to understanding the film. The absence of a clear-cut message allows the viewer to inject their own message into the story.
Of course this is coming from a David Lynch fan:)
I don't believe pbs is running any commercials either;)

Yeah, I know where to find them.
Go to your local grocery store and ask to be directed to the dairy section. There you will find eggs in what are called "cartons." Some cartons may contain only six, some contain 18, you want the one that has 12 eggs in it. On your way to the register, stop by the toy aisle and pick up a few packs of marbles.
remember debtors prison? Once you are in prison you have no means of making money so your debts get bigger and bigger. We phased those out in the dark ages.
There was talk on the geocaching list years back about a marine geocache. Of course there would be gps on board and a small thruster to move it around the ocean. It would obviously have to be powered by solar cells.
This gliding technology seems like a perfect fit.
Low power consumption, intermittent surfacing, and a simple principle.
While I'm daydreaming, wouldn't it be cool to send one of these things (or any homebuilt autonomous vehicle) around the world?
Forget the X prize, I'm offering the C prize (amount TBA) to the first person who does this with less than $500.
You'd need an efficient drive system, sail or this gliding technique comes to mind. Of course a gps, and modest CPU, a linux ucSimm perhaps. Put it all together in a solid seafaring shell, slap some solar panels on it and let it go.
You'd want to keep track of it, but I'm not sure what satellite/radio options exist. HAM would only work near civilization, and satellite is probably too expensive. But that is only a minor obstacle:)

IIRC IQ tests are standardized so that the mean, mode, and median are all right at 100, It is just a standard bell curve.
So is the space progam, so is all of science.
That's just the info I was looking for.

You are thinking of the midas touch, not the golden goose.
What?
And even then, it was only under very specific conditions. (not that I know them OTOH)
Remeber the end of history of the world? "We're Jews in space, zooming around protecting the hebrew race!" I wish I could find a screen grab of that.
You're on. Have you ever played until the clock stops? We have many times.
do you even have to ask? If a script can't be doing that, what can it be doing?
Wow, one can repost the same exact post and get modded up too? Slashdot truly is awesome.
Now THAT house might get you laid.
That's hillarious. Gee, I'm glad I saw your post before it got modded down. Stupid ass moderators.
Now if Brittney Spears or Eminem got screwed in a movie deal, then you would have your public outcry.
A quick search of the new google news service brings up articles from the Washington Post, CNN, Seattle Times, etc.

Could you explain a bit more about it? Are people still using it?
the crackpot ideas of Alex Jones. They are good ideas, but only for a laugh.
yes, I read the article too. What's the problem again?

don't get me started on asian pr0n now.....
Thanks for pointing that out, cows do take up alot of room and resources. Kind of like SUVs I guess ;)
