I remember reading about this over a year ago when somebody realized that it should be possible and began snapping up all the tiger fetuses in jars he could find.
Which, in a way, is probably a strong argument for keeping dead babies in jars.
Well, the site seems/.'d, but one genre that I've seen almost completely die is the adventure game.
The great days of Sierra's Space and Kings and Hero quests had some great games, and you don't see anything like those coming out today. I think the games seem less sexy and exciting to people who don't remember the gameplay from before - there's few explosions, and the action is mostly in the mind. It takes time to get some sort of payoff from the game... unlike most games today which offer almost instant gratification as soon as you start.
Course, the travisty of the last 2 KQ games couldn't have helped the genre (one mouse command? ONE?)... poor poor Sierra.
I'm wondering if this is an "after which, therefore because of" kind of situation, where Disney says "Let us wait for the Japenese language track" and suddenly everyone who had filled out some internet petition goes "Hey, this was all because of us!"
...because I've never seen an internet petition do squat.
I got tired of hearing the phrase "electronic footprints" round about the 3rd time. Why use such a phrase when others are so superior? Like, say, "digital i-dentity e-placeholders."
...if only for the fact that they're probably not going to merge their names properly. Like when the Bank of Montreal tried to merge with TD Bank, and we didn't get TD Bank of Montreal.
Q: Why not ZDC-Net? A: Because people are going to come up with insulting TLAs to go with it.

It's "you're" - short for "you are" - not "your". You wrote:
"Hey, your in America..." which, in the context of a grammar correction message, is just sad.
First spam, first porn site, that's the stuff people are interested it... by the way , does anyone know these things?

Shame, really.
I find that so many of the management ideas are usually the most obvious. Redundant but true.
