Anyhow i'd genuinely like to know what you see as the problem since you seem to be the exception, not the rule.
Let me be another exception.
After I allowed JavaScript from mac.com, there are still problems.
I wanted to print a copy so that I could drop it off at the polls for the workers there next time I go to vote. I'm sure there are all clueless about the issue. However, it one clicks all the bits in the side bar in reverse order to get a sequential ordered page and then trys to print it, you get only the intro.
I guess if you want, you could blame that on the way firefox's "print" function works.
I don't really see much benefit to the JavaScript laden layout over a flat sequential presentation anyway.
Doing so wouldn't compromise the privacy of persons not on the lists, and wouldn't require that anyone else's information be turned over to law enforcement -- so unless they were interested in you already, submitting your FAFSA wouldn't put you at risk.
Unless of course you just happen to have the same name as someone on the list. But what are the chances of that happening?:-)
This wasn't trolling through student data at random, it was for specific names that were already part of an FBI investigation. That point is being entirely missed in the comments here. The FBI has a list of people they're investigating, and are asking the DoE to check if any of them are applying for financial aid anywhere. That sounds like basic police work to me. Perhaps it's newsworthy because it's surprising that two branches of the federal government can coordinate on anything.
Yes, standard police work. I know when the local constabulary investigates a burglary at the local BigBox store, the first thing they do is come up with a list of suspects and then ask the DMV to check the list to see if any of them might have expired drivers licenses.
Oh wait, that doesn't sound like basic police work to me. That sound like a fishing expedition.
They think they are guilty of one crime, but can't prove it, so they go fishing to see if there is something they can prove you did wrong.
That, is not police work. Harassment maybe, but not police work.
...if there is another terrorist attack or attacks causing major loss of life, any country found to be harboring and/or funding Islamic terrorists will be attacked. Not invaded. Attacked. Their cities will be summarily carpet-bombed....
So you solution to terrorism is to become a terrorist nation state?
Terrorism
The practise of coercing governments to accede to
political demands by committing violence on civilian
targets; any similar use of violence to achieve goals.
Even then I said it was an excuse to stop the flow of cheap oil under the oil for food program (which all Americans benefited due to it's driving down oil prices, well I guess all Americans except those who make money selling oil).
Turn out it was also a source for some choice no-bid contracts for Halliburton.
Remember we faced Saddam in the "mother of all battles". As my grandfather would have said, "Saddam is all blow and no go".
The US had nothing to fear from Iraq, other than empty rhetoric.
Of course now we have something to fear as thousands of Iraqis who have watched thier families die at American hands and are now ripe for recruitment by terrorist groups.
I don't recall this being the case in my younger years, but that may be more a result of my memory than an actual decline in customer service.
It's getting worse. See if you local library has a copy of Why nothing works for an explanation of why that is so. It's a little old, but seems explain things nicely.
Add in a FAX spam filter module and problem solved.
So now all businesses can pay for a FAX spam filter module.
That's just crazy. You think it's OK to send your money avoiding advertising now?
Just because a communication medium exsist does not mean
one should have to bear the cost of others advertising. Whether that's
paper and toner or extra software to filter out SPAM.

If only I was as well paid.

You've got the algorithm wrong. This one is none standard.
The bonus question should be: When does this unsustainable model collapse?
Just how long can the rich get richer and still sell stuff the poor who are getting poorer?
I guess a jellyfish stings doesn't count as a self-powered predatory strike then. Why?

Flawed logic, look;
Microsoft is a (the?) leading manufacturer of consumer-targeted software products. I think they're unlikely to make that mistake.
Hey! Don't include me in your "we". I sure as hell don't believe the adversarial system we has is worth a shit!
Nor do I believe an adversarial system is even a good way to uncover the truth, and without truth there can be no justice.

What the hell is wrong with you?
Oh, wait, I see. Your a troll.
Nevermind.
This just in.... A terror plot involving terrorist who have their sleen removed and replaced it with explosive has been uncovered.
All I can say, at least they didn't pack the explosives in there colon, other wise it'd be free rectal exams for all passengers.
Maybe it happen while you were napping, but there have been some significant changes in the laws, in the US, in the last 6 years.
According to this AP article, grocers throw out thousands of bushels of fruit a year because it ripens too fast
Why throw it out?
Why not ferment it and turn it ethanol to use a fuel?
If you have proof showing another group that has indiscriminately gone after Americans more often then I would love to see it.
What about clinic bombings or don't you consider that terrorism? What about the KKK?
The most thorought treatment of terroism in the US I could find with a quick google was pdf. FYI, the tables are at the end of the document.
Millions, can seem to get into the millions. How about some links?

So were will the plutonium be if it's not "lying around"?
I suggest we make it into suppositories and give them to elected officals each time they are caught lying to the public.
I think we can be certain consciousness does not develop before the nervous system.
From the article they are harvesting cells after 5 days and the nervous system starts to develop after 17 day.
I assume that changes you mind about this, unless, of course, you think one can have consciousness without a nervous system.
No. And that's just the way the people calling the shots want it.
It's nearly time for the Dreedle Solution.
What is this 'Lovejoy Gambit' of which you speak?
Could you at least create a Wikipedia entry for it?
You don't have to call, the FBI has a page to submit tips.
Unless you were talking about mathematics, I think you meant generally accepted (or widely accepted) facts. Not provable facts.
Don't forget the well trained torturers.
Maybe when they've finished their work for the government they can open up shops in neighborhoods across the US.

Nah, it's OK if they continue to own the patent. It just need to be made clear prosecution is unhealthy.
