  1. ROFL!! on Powell Aide Says Case for War a 'Hoax' · · Score: 1

    Please explain how WWII was a war fought over global currency? Or please... how about Korea or Vietnam... those 2 countries have tremendous impact on the world's economy. ROFL!!

  2. Lincoln was a Republican, Idiot on Remains of First African Slaves Found · · Score: 2, Insightful

    And the Southern Democrats were the slave owners. Oh, and the abolitionists like John Brown? They were like the Religious Right. Read some history, moron.

  3. Re:Not a new thing. on Publishers Say 'Fact-Checking Too Costly' · · Score: 1

    'cause he's some wealthy pretty boy who scammed his way through life.

  4. They Should Generate Big $$ For Services on IBM Sets DB2 Database Free (Beer) · · Score: 1

    Since UDB is a piece of crap! This is a ruse, big time. And no... I don't work for Oracle - I just use both.

  5. Definitely on More Bad News About Global Warming · · Score: 1

    And soot reduction is starting to happen with coal burning power plants - one thing the epa has not caved to. But you know, the power companies usually don't block envirnomental upgrades when the technology exists and they are able to implement it without huge rate increases.

  6. Tell Us the Real Reason on Why Google in China Makes Sense · · Score: 1

    Like how Google is fighting the "world's most dangerous terrorist" George Bush and the Justice Dept for access to search records.

    Yeah... real noble. Cave to the communists - stand-up to the Justice Dept. Sheesh...

  7. Nixon Had Issues on Slashback: Google, Surveillance, Stardust · · Score: 1

    Vietnam was nothing but a political war run by politicians. Nixon allowing the incursion into Cambodia - the politicians had made this out-of-bounds - probably made sense militarily at the time but it was just another transgression by Nixon.

    The vietcong were not an enemy which everyone agree was - whereas terrorists are an enemy which everyone agrees. This issue is DEAD politically.

  8. Maybe Colin Campbell is Gay?? on Good Riddance To Booth Babes · · Score: 1

    And he's just pissed they don't have guys in black leather chaps in the booths.

  9. Re: The problem with FW800 on MacWorld MacBook Only a Prototype? · · Score: 1

    They could of just used a FW800 jack - you can run 400's on the bus, but the bus then clocks down to 400 across the bus in your chain.

  10. Seems Like There Are Simpler Ways.... on U.S. Government Wants Google Search Records · · Score: 2, Informative

    The sting operations by local police forces seems more than adequate enough to catch pedofiles. Boost funding for this and lock up these perverts with the satisfaction of knowing you caught them in the act.

    Google pr0n queries?? Probably take the worlds fastest super computer a year to parse!

  11. Re:Did Anyone Check The Content? on Piracy Setup Discovered in WV Capitol Building · · Score: 1

    "Take Me Home Country Roads" talks about the Blue Ridge Mountains... they're in VIRGINIA. So its all "relative" ROFL

  12. Did Anyone Check The Content? on Piracy Setup Discovered in WV Capitol Building · · Score: 5, Funny

    Was it gigabytes of "Take Me Home Country Roads" on mp3 and the movie "Deliverence"?

  13. I Guess You're Happy Now? on Earth's Copper Supply Inadequate For Development? · · Score: 0, Troll

    Gold prices returned to levels not seen in 25 years. That would be an inverted bell-shaped curve, BTW.

    Were you bullish on gold in 1983? Uhhh... huh... financial genius.

  14. Use of "Anonymous" Editorial His Greatest Gift on Happy 300th Birthday Benjamin Franklin · · Score: 1

    He waged verbal war via anonymous editorials in his and other papers enabling him to say things he most certainly wouldn't sign his name to. Something that sadly is no longer possible in the print media and may soon be outlawed on the internet as well.

  15. Can they explains pics of people riding on dino's? on Scientists Figure Out How Bees Fly · · Score: 1

    You know... like the pics on that Australian dude's website where they are herding the dinosaurs into the dino-pen.

  16. Christ... Do People Read The Articles?? on Panel To Investigate Scientist For Cloning Claims · · Score: 1

    Damn man. The co-authors of the paper have already come forth saying the guy fabricated the research. The one guy from the University of Pittsburgh said the guy just used his name on the paper - without any consultation!

  17. A Couple of Sell-outs on Robert Fripp to Compose Vista's Soundtrack · · Score: 1

    Eno... I can understand him after going with U2, but Fripp... this is disturbing.

  18. Re:What Financial Advice!! on Unisys Gets DHS Contract Worth Up to $750 million · · Score: 1

    Oh really? Well... look at this chart on the price of gold over only the past TEN years.

  19. What Financial Advice!! on Unisys Gets DHS Contract Worth Up to $750 million · · Score: 1

    Bonds are for suckers and Gold is "stable". Yo... idiot... look at the history of the price of an ounce of gold for christ's sake, esp. the last 30 years. And as far as commidity pricing being immune to corruption, look no further than the Bass' brothers play on the silver market in the early 80's.

  20. But Have You Smoked Weed 15 Times?? on The FBI's IT Expansion Plans · · Score: 1

    WTF... 15 times?? I guess Bill Clinton smoked it 14 times - and that's the new standard?

  21. Exactly Right on Colds May Trigger Childhood Cancers · · Score: 1

    Why is this news? A weakened immune system opens the door. Sheesh...

  22. ..and get a NYTimes reporter to Call his Employer on Wikipedia Hoax Author Confesses · · Score: 1

    Funny how effective that was... and then Mr. Free Speech has the audacity to ask the employer to hire the guy back. ROFL!!!

  23. Don't Forget Six Sigma! on Woz Says Big Software Doesn't Work · · Score: 1

    Or you give up some idea and like vultures, there's a group of architects or managers wanting to take your idea and make it there's. They know the rigid hierachy of management forces one to cabinbalize others.

    All in the quest for "quality". riiight...

  24. Obviously Your Worthless To the Organization on Computer Jobs -- How to Resign Professionally? · · Score: 1

    Trust me... the folks who actually mean something... they make them stay the 2 weeks and write documentation or train others, etc.

  25. Dixie!! on Apple Adds New TV Shows To iTunes · · Score: 1

    Christ... how many women did she inspire to get into nursing thinking hanging out at the ol' ER was cool?

    And don't forget that D5W and transport!
