The cat herding rocked! But the connection to EDS was reeeeeally cheesy (we herd information or something dumb like that). They shoulda just displayed their name and let the cats run over it with no explanation. Meowwww...
Although, the overall quality of the commercials was not up to Super Bowl par I thought--I was disappointed.
And the E*Trade monkey? Now that's an novel idea. A novelly stupid one.
The judiciary is *not* some unstoppable power. In fact, it was Hamilton in the Federalist papers who said that the judiciary must be fortified because it has neither the power of the purse nor the sword. (Purse == Congresses' power of money, Sword == Exexcutive's power of enforcement). The courts *cannot* enforce their own decisions (just look at what happened when they told Jackson he couldn't remove the Indians. He did anyway. "Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it," Jackson said). However, in this day and age no one is crazy enough to simply ignore a court order. It just doesn't happen.
Secondly, the Constitution is perhaps one of the most ingenious documents regarding American government. The judiciary is supposed to interpret it. It always pertains.
Now, in the arguments of the 9th Amendment (unenumerated rights are not denied), it is by and large useless. When the courts first made decisions regarding it, everyone went around crying 9th Amendment (hippies said they had a 9th Amendment right to long hair, etc). However, it is now ignored and has not been even mentioned in case law in at least a few decades. Although it is tempting to cry 9th Amendment rights to anything under the sun, it just doesn't work or apply.
Last year in math, my prof went off talking about Fermat's Little Theorem (something to do with primes I think). He said, "and what follows is a beautiful proof." He was so excited about the proof, you could see it in his eyes. And it was, it was a beauty of a proof, taking something completely unrelated and proving it. I think because of him I might just declare math my major.
An open-source office project is definitely good. I know there's Applix, StarOffice, and WordPerfect, but they seem to be lacking. Besides, most of them are big and bloated anyways. Hopefully OpenDesk will gain some popularity.
When I try to export messages from OE5, it is complaining that MAPI isn't installed. I don't really feel like downloading Outlook or MS Mail, any other solutions?
Does anyone know of a script that converts Outlook Express mail folders/messages to formats readable by PINE, etc. I saw one once but it didn't work with the latest version of OE.
Come on guys, this is a great chance that Red Hat is offering. If anyone got e-mailed a username/password and is not intending on using it, please send it to me. joemayfair@usa.net. We should be supporting things like this, not labelling it spam.
i have an SBLive in my box right now and the new drivers aren't that bad. i mean the install went smoothly and i'm listening to x11amp right now. RH5.2, KDE, kernel 2.0.36
but i dont hear too big of a difference between the old SB16 i had in there yesterday, so oh well. hopefully we'll get some development and source for these things.

How about this--
The government (or any party) must return the encrypted files to the defense.
If the defense decides to use *any* of the decrypted material, it must provide copies of *all* the decrypted material back to the prosecution.
Could this work?

I don't get it.... I only see 2 errors.
(btw, "there" is correct, unlike the guy who thought it should be "their." "Their" is possessive.)
