IMHO, it's a little short sighted to be throwing away nuclear waste without contemplating if it can be reused.
Now, I'm not taling about low level crap lie booties and overalls, but the higher level srtuff.
Can you refine this waste to ger useful products, like radioactive meical tracers, or cancer treatment?
Can you use it drive spaceships, like the Americium mentioned a week ago on/.?
Can you put it in a breeder reactor and get more reactor fuel?
Now, some people may argue that breeder reactors can cause increased nuclear proliferation, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Just like the second amendment postulated, as more states are armed with nuclear weapons, wars break out less and less, and stability increases. Smart guys, those founding fathers.
the only cell modem in it is the one mandated by the NSA.

Yeah, I am sure that you are tweaking web pages... probably tweaking your helmet, no?
Not yet, but after our current baby is born, I may consider the vasectomy, which apparently involved a bunch of helmet tweaking.
I'll ignore the USian slant to your post which assumes I have a helmet to tweak, instead of the turtleneck that the Europian slashdotters are wont to possess.
When you're sitting there, in a cold doctor's office, with only a sheet over you, and nothing but drug literature to read, it's great to be able to pull out a Palm and play a little Freecell, or even tweak a few web pages.
Where the fsck do you work?

I'm lucky, I actually work with a few woman, but none that I would care to have sex with.
Most/.'ers work in sausgae factories, if ya know hwat I mean.
I'm a dev, and don't play sports. but from time to time i watch a game of football or basketball (mainly to feel somewhat masculene). It seems that the players will be >= 80% black, but certain roles are almost always white, quaterbacks, are almost always white, coachs seem to be nearly 95% white. owners are probably 100% white.
While your comments about black quarterbacks was true in the early 1990's, consider the quarterbacks in the playoffs.
Daunte Culpepper, Steve McNair, Randall Cunningham, Donovan McNabb.
Civilization is a drug for me, the best $2 I ever spent at a garage sale.I have it on my 486/40 laptop, and that's why I haven't deleted the DOS partition to make it an X Window client.
I could spend hours straight playing it, heck, I did at my hotline job.
I know a few homeschoolers in Rochester, and a few parents who wanted to but were too depressed/stoned to attmempt it, and I've noticed that parents of homeschoolers usually have such severe personality defects that public schools were traumatic for them.
So, rather than hope their children will do better than them in public schools and not become such social misfits, they keep them home. Have you ever seen an 8 year boy who has more social interaction with his psychotic mother than his peers? It's not pretty.
Of course, there are valid reasons for home schooling, particulary those of Christian persuasion who are disgusted with the secular humanism forced down their throats, but for most kids, they need more interaction with their peers and less with computers.
A year or so ago, one of the city high schools installed metal detectors to stop kids from bringing in guns and knives.
One the kids said they wouldn't work that well, so the teacher dared him to bring a gun in.
Of course, the kids got the gun in, and got suspended. I think the stupid teacher got suspended too, which is good, the next thing she would have done would probably have been to dare him to shoot someone.
Seriously, did anyone else notice the progression of less intelligent people in college?
They'd start out in Mech E or EE, then drop to Industrial E when Mech E or EE was too hard, then drop to business when Engineering was too hard, then end up in Nutrition or Education.
I would like to listen to music while I run on the treadmill at the Y ( and also stare at the SPandex clad chicks in the aerobics room), however, my CD player with 10 seconds of anti-skip memory doesn't work on the treadmill, way too much vibration at 8 miles per hour for it to work.
So, are these MP3 CD players any better? They should be, tey have a lot less data to pull, 1- seconds of CD data is about 100 seconds of MP3 data, unless the d>a is before the memory?
Otherwise, I would have to shell out big bucks for an MP3 player.

and then compare my arguing that the second amendment wrt guns to analogous to more countries being allowed to join the nuclear club.

Decent rubber chest waders can hold about 3 gallons of liquid when you don't wear anything underneath them.
Just be sure to cinch the chest band tight to avoid leakage over the top.
Both communism and OOP rely on the concept of classes for the fundamental flavor.
now it happens all the time.
So what, it was hard for Yahoo to do it, now they've figured out how.

This means war!
I'll just stick with a few Mindstorms robots, instead of the Palm.
That way, I won't wince when my 4 year old daughter gets rough with them.
That was a heck of a game, and I'm glad the Saints won.
Now all the Bills have to do is make Haslett, their old star linebacker, a coaching offer he can't refuse.

Of course, you're on the money about coaches.
Thanks bud, but I'll take the kharma hit.
Humor is a tough thing to pull off, apparently I was anti-microsoft enough.
And anyone that would name their website, or even user id after him must be an infantile twit.
I don't usually believe novelists who write about alien abduction.
I tried freeciv, I had trouble with it though.
I tried running 3 players in 3 separate windows, but it wouldn't start.
I'll try again.

Wow, you had your own CRts? Back in my day, there was only one CRT in the cybercafe, and it was pointed away from us.
If I had a mod point, you'd get a funny.

CAn you imagine a judge demanding that MS turn over Win2k code and make it a matter of public record?
There's the flaw in that argument.
Just distribute your program as a binary only, and make the lawyers decompose it and prove that you compiled it from your source.
What are the odds of finding a judge fluent enough in assembly to appriciate that?
