They should have left their research closed. Now anyone can take their research, reverse engineer it, and repackage it under a Creating Commons license.
Bob Mathias was not permitted to complete in a third Olympics in the decathlon because he had made a movie and was paid for it. The IOC determined that the movie makers paid him to make the movie because he was an athlete and therefore was now a "professional athlete".
Today:
You have countless professionals playing in Basketball, Tennis, Cycling, etc.
It's statistically quite likely that alien life exists (especially for a broad enough definition of "life"). But the chances that it will be close enough to Earth to "visit us" or that it will look like "little men" is approximately zero.
...based on our current level of technology and scientific understanding.

It taxes (more like fines) those who did nothing wrong.
I hit b with my right hand.
I am hoping with an all Democrat government we will get a "Help America Vote" act that actually helps America vote.
It's a shame we have to wait until a party comes to power that benefits from better voting for the government to fix the problem.
STOP SIGNING RECORD CONTRACTS!
There is no reason to do that anymore, at least there shouldn't be. Make the music, record it, and put it on iTunes or some other media.
Burn it to CD-R and sell it on eBay or Amazon. CD-Rs cost less than $0.25 now.
Wait for the appeal.
Was it around their neck like a noose and they loosened it?
They should have left their research closed. Now anyone can take their research, reverse engineer it, and repackage it under a Creating Commons license.
Then we should see it by about 2040.
I hope it won't be Wikipedia style...
Some people say listing a bunch of opinions, stated as facts, without any specifics or citing any authorities on the subject are weasels.
The DOOZY I heard the other day from a mechanic, who I believe is afraid his job is disappearing, is that batteries in the Prius are RADIOACTIVE!
Why don't they put a 1GB RAM on the thing with a battery and create a huge write cache? This ought to make the write speed almost a non-issue.

If C-SPAN supports Linux (I think they do via Real), they plan to cover the convention quite extensively.
It's because it uses Silverlight not Flash.

Stupid solution for a stupid problem.
...just like the "all amateur" Olympics.

They can sell the financial transaction information all they want, but if they identify what was sold and it is medically related, that's a lawsuit.
$25 co-pay isn't going to tell them a whole lot. It's $25 for a $26 prescription and it is $25 for a $1000 prescription.
Ack, messed up the link.
repeat from last week?
Read TFA... I think they were the VPN Group passwords, i.e. the PSK for the IPSec connection. They still would have to auth after they connected.
Strange they would have a different password per user, unless they were hardware VPN clients.
One way hash passwords have been around FOREVER. I can't believe how stupid this is.
