It won't meet your wish for a full-blown Mac and Linux client, but it's Linux-based and offers functionality equivalent to Exchange. Mac and Linux users can get their mail via IMAP, and calendaring via the web is in the upgrade due out next month.

True airspeed most certainly does not take wind into account. You're thinking of ground speed. True airspeed is calibrated airspeed corrected for altitude and non-standard temperature.
And one final thing...how is this real-life Pacman game any more lame than a game where a bunch of musclebound idiots are chasing another musclebound idiot carrying a ball across a field?
Er... the musclebound idiots are getting laid?

No sensible pilot cruises at 90% rated power. Typical cruise power settings are 55-75%.
2. GPS has only 10m accuracy. This is important when you're giving pedestrians directions (eg cross the street and enter the second door on your right).
Modern receivers get better than 3 meters with WAAS.

I don't think the FAA prohibits cell phones; I thought they had just expressed support for the FCC reg. But whatever. I know the plural of anecdote is not data, but I'm a pilot, and my cell phone causes problems with my radios.
It's important to have a valid email address in WHOIS that goes to a real person. As someone mentioned above, the Internet is cooperative and it's hard to cooperate when you can't communicate. But it's also important to keep spammers from finding your email address.
Here's a suggestion. I've only been doing this for about a week but it's been effective so far. In WHOIS, list your email address as dns-admin@yourdomain.blah. Configure your mail server to accept email to this address but then send a bounce with "5.1.1 User has moved; please try dnsadmin@yourdomain.blah" message (note the lack of hyphen). Configure dnsadmin@yourdomain.blah to go to your real mailbox.
This works because no spammer ever uses their real email address, so they'll think their message was accepted and they'll never see the bounce. Meanwhile, a real human being who actually needs to communicate with you will get the bounce with your real address.
As for physical contact information, the best I've come up with so far is a PO box. But that costs money.
Yeah, really. HyperTalk was my first programming language. Significant portions of my childhood were consumed by writing openCard handlers and making useless but fun stacks. So Pudge, do us a favor and cram it.
There is a law in almost all states (and I'd be very surprised to find out that yours doesn't have one) which requires police departments to supply information about police activity, including arrests, as a matter of public record.
I'm with the other guy. Calm the fuck down and take some remedial civics.
Religion is actually valued quite highly in the United States. We're also an obese nation, and rarely are insulting comments made about people's weight except behind their backs. Junkies and sluts? We've got plenty of names for them and have no problem denouncing sex and drugs at every turn. But I wouldn't say the US, as a whole, is against gluttony or religious fanaticism (as long as it's the "right" religion).
The blotter exists not to say that Jeff got wasted last night, but to tell the public what their police force is doing. That information should definitely be public. But I think they could avoid printing names "to protect the innocent."
We had a situation here where a woman got arrested for some little thing, and of course her name and address ended up on the blotter. Turns out someone was stalking her, and having her name and address in the paper was not good, guilty or otherwise.
Reminds me of a guy here at work who asked our backup administrator to restore his stash of porn on our file server. He lasted about 30 minutes after that.
The hard drives are, in fact, the reason for the shortage -- but not because of their price. Apple has purchased almost every single 4GB microdrive that Hitachi has produced.
From TFA (which you presumably have not read): '"We're actually consuming just about all the 4GB, one-inch drives they make. As they make more, we'll get more," said Mr Joswiak.'

If only I could be as dignified and even-keeled as Mr. Castro.

Just like my gun.
It's also a minute of arc on any great circle route.

You can slow a 172 down to about 60 MPH if you're careful. Dunno about the Piper though.

How about joining the society against raping the word "rape"?
Are you sure about that? I thought most police departments ran this sort of check on their laptops nowadays.

Make an FOIA request for your record.
