Your SSN shouldn't be on your license, in fact, you don't even have to give it the DMV/BMV. You should go there and request them to take it off your license, etc.
It's been this way in Indiana since I can remember, same system and all. I'm not 100% certain you needed proof of Birthdate, but I do remember I had to use my Birth Certificate to get my Driver's License.
I don't know about moving between states, but I know that many states report to their neighbors when you get additional points on your license. For instance, I've been pulled over in Illinois and Ohio (and I live in Indiana), and both times the tickets were reported to Indiana and points went on my license. Lots of fun.
I'm sorry, but I think driver's licenses do make sense. Otherwise a 10 year old might get behind the wheel of a car and slam into while I'm crossing the street. Or a 100 year old, or anyone for that matter. Licensing people to drive, fly, or perform other activities is a very important idea, and is a useful protection.
Just like fishing licenses are there to protect the fish, hunting licenses to protect game, (and other hunters), etc. Most licenses have a very useful purpose.
Yeah, plus real polls are conducted via random audiences, not everyone who visits a website. Thus, it is a volunteer poll, and the results are easily skewed, and there's nothing wrong with asking a few hundred of your friends to vote for something, or asking everyone in your company to vote for a certain option, since it is a volunteer poll, anyone can participate, and therefore, doesn't carry the same weight or validity as say, something done by zogby. (Much better results than Gallop and whoever else there is out there, btw.
Which brings up an interesting point, how many people pronounce SQL as "Sequel"? I had a TA get all pissed at me once for calling it "Sequel" and insisted that we should call it ess-queue-elle. I think less syllables is better no matter how you look at it.
Actually, I worked in an automobile factory one summer, and if you believe your job duties can result in RSI, and you don't speak up, and then you do get some sort RSI from it, you're going to have a difficult time getting much done about it.
I'd say if your employer won't do something about, then you better find a new employer that cares about your health and safety a little more.
Also, I believe that OSHA got rid of many of their ergonomics rules, etc., which might make it much easier for an employer to get away without having to provide employees with safe environments. (It should be noted that the UAW (and maybe others) still make the companies they work with to follow the OSHA ergonomics guidelines that were in place.)
Yes, I know he believed the Bible, he was trying to get people to realize that just because it doesn't say so in the Bible doesn't mean it wasn't true. Nowhere in the Bible did it say planets had circular orbits, but for some reason people thought it did, or gathered that conclusion from it. Galileo knew otherwise, but had a difficult convincing people so, and he was often considered a heretic.
Thus, he also proved that science did not end with the Bible, as many people believed.
Oh never mind, I won't bother. I was going to try to explain the significance of space research, etc. For one thing, Galileo was one of the first to challenge that the Bible does not have to be the be all end all of science, and that man can learn more on his own by observing. Without telescopes and people looking at stars, we would be alot far behind where we are today, and who knows where it will bring us. It just might help unify the people of the earth some day, and then you'll be the fool for telling us it was foolish of us to discuss such things when people are dying.
By the way, while you are on your campaign to protect innocent lives, you better take on drunk drivers, pollution, serial killers, cigarettes (maybe not innocent, but still..) AIDs victims (especially in '3rd world countries'), etc. You better get moving.
Heh, sorry about that, I thought that the comment said Africa and not South Africa. Maybe I should get my eyes checked.
Besides, the odds are it would hit an ocean, and take out some marine life, maybe make some real big waves and take out coastal cities, but it wouldn't be the end of the world..
c|net has an article about the new iMac, basing most of its report off of the Time article (which was available at newsstands and airports in New York last night, btw)
Bravo! Win2k crashed occasionally on me, but 99% of the time it only happened when I was messing around with something crazy, etc.
I've only had one problem with XP, and that has to do with lack of drivers for my old Acer 2x cd writer (which Acer doesn't even have support for on their website, so I'm really not surprised.) It did work under 2000 though.
I'm also curious when/. became "News for Linux Nerds", because that is sure what is seems like to me.
Anyway, I think *nix is great for a lot of things, but I can never get XWindows to work out for me like I want it to, but maybe I'm just too picky.
Yeah, and I don't think I should have to unplug my USB devices just so FreeBSD installer will work, and then plug them in later to use them... I suppose I should tell them about that!
Yeah, if it was all in one box, I could eliminate 3 remotes, and be down to only 2 instead. A VCR would be nice in that combination too, just because I have alot of tapes that I don't want to spend another $15-20 to get DVDs of them.
According to c|net, Panasonic, Samsung, Toshiba and Pioneer all top the list, with Pioneer coming in 4th, and Panasonic being the only one with a 9/10. Apex isn't too far down the list, with it's AD 800 getting a 7/10.
My Apex AD 1000 does just fine with everything I've thrown at it, including mp3 and vcds, and the quality is pretty good. For $80, it was worth the price, and fits my needs just fine.
But we don't need a better system for watching the stars. Nope. Obviously not.
We sure don't, considering they found it one month ago, and it hasn't even passed by yet. Maybe you should read the article, buddy.
Oh yeah, and it wouldn't destory something the size of Africa, maybe something more like England, France, Spain, Portugal and Germany (and all those in between) put together though.
If it was on the back, I would think balancing the thing would have required something similar on the bottom anyway, or quite a counterweight. In this case, the guts of the computer are the counterweight. (Or paperweight, I guess.)
I helped a friend add memory to his iMac, i don't recall it being all that tough. Take a few screws out, pop the memory in like on any other computer and put the screws back in.
If you've ever read Time Magazine, you would know that the date is "Week ending January 14, 2002". In other words, it's going to talk about things relevant to the week in which you receive it.
Heh, no kidding. Just like if you bought a PC from Dell or whoever, it would probably come with a mouse you didn't like. You would go out and buy a new one anyway.
Maybe the NDA just didn't mention a time, and just January 7th.... then they really aren't in that much trouble. Besides, I doubt they would have signed such an agreement. Plus, since the print version wouldn't have been available to people until tomorrow morning, they would have been pretty safe. Oh well! It's not like it was a big surprise, just the end design might not have been what people expected.

What about the RSA dolphin? Has that been around longer than qmail's or not?

Brazil is an awesome movie. =] Maybe Gilliam got a lead a few years ago on this project. It was designed 2+ years ago. (but not 17.. oh well)

Jobs did have alot to do with Pixar at one time....
Actually, it will probably cost half as much as the one I bought 3 years ago. (~$2750)

Not everyone can learn absolutely everything from a book and/or experimentation, although they are both good ways to learn.
