I have worked in a few different security fields and believe that it is impossible to explain to management that security is inversely proportionate to usability. You want to keep data 100% secure? Lock it in a fireproof safe. You want that data useable that is another matter. But until you make security non intrusive people will do things like post it notes. So where exactly is the problem coming from?

Where the heck do you get your history WE HAD TO STOP. The resolution that was passed was ONLY to kick his sorry butt out of Kuwait. We did try to get the UN to remove him them they would not do it! Don't blame that one on the USA blame it on the countries that refused to authorize it. Just like this time. The funniest thing about it you are trying to morally lambaste the USA for not breaking the UN resolutions last time and taking him out . But that is what we are doing right now and the USA is still wrong. Can you see the irony here? I really believe you are just using this as a handy example to do some trendy USA bashing. You seem to not even have thought about it.

Intentional killing agreed. So your agreeing that deliberately killing children is wrong. Then you should be on the side of the Coalition. They are not the ones that are parking weapons in hospitals and next to national monuments. But the difference you are trying so hard to ignore is that IF the children were killed by a coalition weapon gone astray it was not intentional. As hard as we have tried we have not been able to make them perfect. Not only that be we are not the ones gassing children. Again you are distorting facts to fit your own opinions. If you really cared about the children why haven't you been howling for Saddams removal since he gassed entire villages of women and children?

It is fact they were/are trying to devolope a canapoy that will deform instead of break under a bird strike. It is an air cannon that they fired chickens at test caniopies to simulate landing speeds. As far as sucking one into an enjine (no as funney as it sounds if you are in the plain at the time) It mostly just trashes the engine. But with single enjine craft (Falcon) that is enough. The real answer is to find out how to keep them from landing on runways. Or tring to nest near them.
And this prevents the antennas from being coiled why? How? Even assumeing you are correct and that they need to have attennas for the reason of colecting enought power to respond to the query pray tell me how long the attenna my ferret is chiped with? Answer none or it is internal and still effectively none. Now this is not a cutting edge chip (of cource) but it is plenty strong enough to identify my furkid to the vet. Just like the 8088 I used to play with has less raw prosscessing power then my watch does now. And the power of the same said 8088 was a considerable amount of the computing power it took to get a man to the moon.
Well lets see here one very easy way is to include them at the choke points like gas stations and freeway on ramps use digital cameras with a variant of facial recognition software to "read" your license plate and every time you gas up or get on or off the freeway your tire/license plate/paint job/whatever is being used is updated. As for too much data flow I think not. Compared to Carnivore this would be trivial. Or the other one that the French (I think?) Are suing the U.S. government for using for industrial espionage. Now that would take some computing horsepower!

How about riots in the United States? Or even better, a few of these with tear gas spraying out all side could have cleared streets to rescue downed helicopters. Especially when the government wants to try to avoid creating martyrs. Just think less than lethal force. Also as long as the base truck can keep up you just have to make the new wiz bang weapon to fit the box and your off.
Bending the rules??? The standard says first do this then this then that. Not being standards compliant is breaking the standards not bending them. I don't care if it was Microsoft or BSD. It is a bad idea. Why do you think things were standardized in the first place? This is just more attempts to appear to be superior, like fixing a benchmark test. Or the original non standard implementation in TCP/IP for the entire win9x line.
How about because they are not increasing the connection speed. They are causing more traffic because like it or not IIS is not the majority server out there. There for more often then not they are creating more traffic and slowing down your browsing not speeding it up. Any other questions?

I disagree how else would have cell phones and pagers before them become status symbols for the same demographic? Children have control of a surprising amount of the liquid income of their families.

Ask any marketing weasel about that.
Or someone figures out how the numbering for the SN# works. And tries to see how many people they can get banned. Bet M$ changes their tune in a hurry?
Himm how often do we see the clueless suffering because they don't get it? My entire computer experience has been in ISP's.
