About 8 years ago, I was in the market to buy a new camcorder. Went to all the places... Best Buy, Good Guys, Circuit City, and a few locals that have long since gone out of business.
All of them tried to push the fancy extra features on me... EXCEPT Circuit City. The guy there said, "You could get the color viewfinder, but for $100 extra, why?". I bought one on the spot.
No, it's not preaching to the choir. The ACM ranks up there with the IEEE. They *do* have a lobby in DC, and the poll is to see what their members think said lobby should do.
So what if Joe Blow sends you an unencrypted email, and (for various reasons) you don't have your own Email server, but use your ISP's instead? You're screwed.
Great. Now what about that uber-secret email that you sent to somee one else?
Let's pick a random ISP -- eeny meeny miney moe -- Verizon. So we have JoesSmallBusiness@verizon.net.
Joe doesn't know much about computers, except how to use the clients, so he uses Verizon's POP server. So all the mail you send to him can be legally read by Verizon.
Running your own email server doesn't do a hell of a lot of good unless everyone you correspond with also runs their own server.
Is it true that your country's name is actually spelled CND, and when some south-of-the-Canadian-border type asked how to spell it, you people told him "C, eh? N, eh? D, eh?"

Bloody Splitters!
Don't you oppress me!
They have a light around the contest board. You can't ring in until the light goes on (otherwise, you have a 2 second lockout).
Speaking from experience
red floyd -- former Jeopardy! contestant
Speaking from experience (I came in 2nd in 1991) they film 5 episodes a day. They used to tape two days per week.
When did they change the rules? It used to be that you could be on 5 times... max, at which point you retired as an "undefeated 5 time champion".
All that these new P2P bills really do is shift the responsibility of enforcement from the record companies to the state and federal governments.
That's the RIAA's business model. Sit back on their asses, let the ca$h roll in, and let the Feds do their dirty work.
You forgot the Nigerian representative, who's chairing the commission.
Thank you, Chico Escuela.
Watching him try to dance during the 2000 convention, it looks like he still has some work to do on the "Al Gore Rhythms".

ME TOO!

There are many nitpicker sites on the net...
One of my favorites is Nitpicker Central.

IIRC, SCOTUS ruled that police couldn't use thermal sensors (without a warrant) to bust pot growers.
I believe they used the "Reasonable Expectation of Privacy" argument.
My dad dropped a transmission ('75 Fiat) in the middle of the New Mexico desert.
He had to wait for 2 weeks in a motel in Santa Rosa (?) for a new one to come in.
Rumbaugh, Booch, and Jacobsen started on UML in the mid 90s.
According to this, UML 0.9 was from 1996, UML 1.0 was 1997.
Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing 15.
It's sloppily coded and refuses to run unless you're Administrator.
Does that count?
An A-bomb attack on Israel would result in several glowing parking lots in the "sponsoring" Arab nation.
It's an open secret that Israel has nukes, and has probably had them since the early '70s.
You miss my point. People are saying, "So encrypt your mail". That's fine for your outgoing, but not your incoming.

It's not a "Musicians' Lobbyist Group", it's a Recording Labels Lobbyist Group.
Except during the several month long, planet-wide dust storms (see Mariner 9).
Oh no! It's Lone Star and Barf! Prepare for Ludicrous Speed!
I think he just got it backwards is all...
