    And some goverment agencies are required by law to keep copies of all emails, even if they are deleted.

    We are not talking about private corps, we are talking about goverment orgs that may be held to different laws.

    Doesn't the rullings of our courts in the 'Pentagon Papers' case make what is being done unlawful?

  5. Re:Just apply for a new SSN on Rectifying Social Security Identity Theft? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    It was an underhanded way of pointing out that the poor guy is screwed. Our goverment won't do much about the people handing out 'new' SSNs like candy.

    If they won't stop them, what makes you think that they will be able to help that guy?

    It fucking sucks.

    There are plenty of places in Dallas, Texas where you can get a 'new' SSN. However, I am not willing to said that said SSN will be valid. :->

    It is much easer on most peoples eyes, which explains the popularity of paper. I would rather read something printed on paper than on my 21 inch Viewsonic P815 or my laptops LCD.

    What do the tools necessary to be a 'publisher' cost and what restrictions do that place of what you can use them for? It will do little good if the 'publishing' tools cost $5000 - $10000 USD per year.

  18. PDF Support? on Sony Launches First Commercial Electronic Paper Display Reader · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Does this unit have support for PDF's? Lack of PDF support is what kept me from buying the last generation of dedicated ebook readers.

    The drug co's in the US could stop advertizing so damn much. Look at their SEC filing and see how much the major drug co's spend of advertizing. For most it is about the same as they spend on R&D and buying other companies for their IP...

    I really, really dislike having to pay 30-50 per add on on top of the monthly fees. Why can't more games do what Lineage II is doing? All expansions will be at no extra charge.

    The old 'crazies' at those orgs wanted to change things for the better.

    It appears that the new 'crazies' just wish to get more power and money. Why else to most of them fight so hard against incremental changes that help the env?
