Why do you hate people from Utah and Germany? I was reading your journal and you have negative info in there about Suse/Novell and IF I run that thru the gbulmash worldview filter it tells me you hate Mormans, people from Utah, and people from Germany.
I don't have to know what type of law he practices (besides it it was a 'simple' form of law you would have said so). Laws are written for lawyers by lawyers. You can not look at the laws currently on the books and tell me they are simple.
And, son, don't confuse the facts with prejudice and bigotry. When you have to fall back on those words it just shows that you have nothing left to debate on and wish to use emotion to win your case instead of logic and the facts.

Why Do Lamps Need Mercury?
"Mercury is an essential ingredient for most energy efficient lamps. Fluorescent lamps and high intensity discharge (HID) lamps are the two most common types of lamps that utilize mercury. Fluorescent lamps provide lighting for most schools, office buildings, and stores. HID lamps, which include mercury-vapor, metal halide, and high- pressure sodium lamps, are used for street lights, floodlights, and industrial lighting. A typical fluorescent lamp is composed of a phosphor coated glass tube with electrodes located at either end. The tube contains mercury, of which only a very small amount is in vapor form. When a voltage is applied, the electrodes energize the mercury vapor, causing it to emit ultraviolet (UV) energy. The phosphor coating absorbs the UV energy, causing the phosphor to fluoresce and emit visible light. Without the mercury vapor to produce UV energy, there would be no light. A four-foot fluorescent lamp has an average rated life of at least 20,000 hours. To achieve this long life, lamps must contain a specific quantity of mercury. The amount of mercury required is very small, typically measured in milligrams, and varies by lamp type, date of manufacture, manufacturing plant, and manufacturer."
"If lamp life is shortened, more lamps must be purchased to achieve the same length of service, and the number of lamps that generators must dispose will increase. How Much Mercury Do Lamps Contain? Based on a 1999 NEMA survey, the average four-foot fluorescent lamp contains about 11.6 milligrams (mg) of mercury. This number has been steadily declining as lamp manufacturers work to reduce mercury content to the minimum amount technically feasible without reducing lamp life. The average four-foot lamp today contains over 75% less mercury than the same lamp would have contained in 1985. According to the U.S. EPA, total global natural and manmade emissions to the environment are 5,500 tons. 1 Manmade sources in the U.S. released 158 tons of mercury in 1995. For comparison, all of the lamps sold in the United States in 1999 containonly an estimated 13 tons of mercury, of which only a fraction will be released as an air emission. Proper lamp disposal or recycling will result in keeping almost all of this mercury out of the environment."
It was a test to see how stupid the mods are. I guess they didn't know the !!!!!!

Having been thru about the same thing when Sunpoint Securities was closed by the goverment the answer will be No. But that wasn't in the same state and was a few years ago and the laws may have changed since then.
We also had a few hours warning before the Federal Martials showed up so most people took their private things before the guys with guns arrived.
It doesn't bother you that a country that has threatened to nuke Israel off the map is working on nuclear weapons? Most, if not all, of the current countries that have nuclear weapons are sane when it comes to there use - Iran and N Korea do not fall into that catagory.
Perhaps you should read up on how they do things in Iran before you support them having nukes.
Funny sites like that didn't exist when Saddam was still in power. I mean people make it sound like Iraq was Edan before we invaded and, I am sorry to say, it wasn't.

Normal people are not required to know engineering specs but they are required to know the law as 'Ignorance of the law is no excuse'
;->
That is a SLIGHT difference.

The point is that those who bitch about the USA on /. are strangly silent when other countries do the same or worse.
And judging from the French actions this week in Africa it isn't just the US that is a hyprocrit.
"Google gave him this totally bogus, highly-technical explanation "
IOW, you dad got a taste of what he does to other each and every day he works.
Forgive me if I find this midly funny.
How is the EBay market for items from WoW? I know that high level items can not be sold but are people selling other items on ebay?
If they didn't have enought people to run the plant they could have shut it down till the strike was over.
Blaming the strikers is just stupid as management made the decision to keep the plant running.

Because the translations of the site cost a whole hell of a lot less. IOW, its an much easier change than translating the site into another language.
But you have the Canadian McGyver (Red Green) on your side...
AHHH!!!
And what is wrong and/or oppresive about the welfare system?

Perhaps I have been to Iran or I have friends who live there. You do not know, no do you? You made an assumption and it made you look like a dumbass.

Are you this pissed about what France is doing?
And why are they in Iraq? Oh yeah, the 'religious' leaders who are leading the iraqis asked them to come...
Does Iran having Nuclear weapons and delivery systems bother you?
When they torture, kill, and behead AID WORKERS because they do not like them they ARE TERRORISTS an no playing with words will change that.
This is /. , where a portion of the posters think that everything the US Military does is evil and that anything that helps them is wrong.
They are unable to thing things thru...
I know this. I like guns, I own guns, and I shoot guns.
;->
I just wanted to see how may times I would get moded up which is why I used 6 !!!!!!
Just ban the guns and the problem will go away!!!
