so you work as a janitor and live off ramen cuz you make $6/hour and you can retire and have more money than you made throughout your life of $6 or maybe $8 when you got older.
or you could be born rich and never work a day in your life and retire ridiculously richer.
i suspect you arent poor, otherwise you'd understand that to truly make money in america you need capitol to invest. working to get paid never made anyone rich. having money to invest is where wealth comes from here buddy.
it is inherently unjust to say "you are born of a high class, so you shall remain regardless of your action. you are born of a low class, your action must be extraordinary if you want to change". why should the janitor be made to live frugrally while others are not?
oh yeah i forgot because the rich worked hard for their money! cuz america is the land of oppurtunity. no oppression here!
life isnt as easy as you would have it be. i'd like to see you go homeless and then work your way out of it. just for the experience, because im sure you could do it because you would hate being poor so much that you would make it work. but is it fair to demand so much of someone? the answer is no its not fair and its not just.
no matter how rosy a picture you paint its not laziness that leads to such high percentages of americans living below the poverty.
its systematic oppression by arrogant assholes such as yourself that care so little about fellow humans, that you say things such as "its cuz you're lazy" instead of "its cuz i oppress you".
i know you're gonna read that and freak out, but obviously your good attitude isnt so good otherwise you'd realize that lesson that EVERY person is worth helping, not just those that meet some arbitrary standard.
it is NOT fruitless to help those who are actively destroying their lives, in fact those are the people that NEEED the most help.
but alas you are only 2% of the problem, the other 98% are people FAR FAR more dubious than yourself. the people that wont build houses, or help evacuees. the people that you unwittingly support through going along with their elitist plans.
yeah the worse part is that the pollution from gas get worse over time at a larger rate than the pollution from regrigerant, at least i'd speculate that
im not talking about certified techs ventint to atmosphere. i gaurantee you right now that people with older systems go "man i can buy new refrigerant at kragens for cheap, i'll just vent what i have left and fill it up myself cuz i dont want to pay". how many people idk, but its SOME people.
what percentage of owners with leaks get them fixed? i gaurantee its not 100% so some percentage of non certified techs are releasing to atmosphere, and not fixing leaks.
not to mention 20% is > 0% isnt it? umm yes it is:)
so therefore a/c poses greater environment risk and actual damage than pelt. unless of course pelt's increased load on motor outweighs the leaks / non fixed leaks / illegal releasers.
ok, so disregad my statement about the physical system being a pollutant in landfills.
the refrigerant is still a pollutant......consider how many cars have leaky a/c systems, or illegally vent their systems. now compare that with a system that doesnt have any chemicals that can be released (legally or illegally)
however for cars efficiency does contribute to pollution (more efficiency = less polution) because the cooler places a load on the engine. however with peltiers the only pollution they can cause is by being placed in a landfill or burning up or something, but with air conditioning systems you have refrigerants that are pollutants, not to mention a physically MUCH MUCH larger system (evaportor, condensor, compressor) system.
so while you may lose out on some engine pollution (small amount) you gain in pollution of the cooling system (large amount)
now to the point....the clock has nothing to do with winter days being too short. you already said that you goto work before its daylight, and you get home a little before daylight ends.
this leaves few solutions..... work less time, so you can either goto or leave work during daylight goto work later/earlier, sacrifice.....goto work when its REALLy dark to get off when daylight is left over....or goto work when its daylight and work into the night.
either way clock really doesnt have anything to do with total available daylight
well you have a valid reason to complain "i cant understand your crap dialect". so from you i'll take the abuse knowing that you have a point.
but from the jackass poster i wont. im sure he grew up here, took his english classes and liked them. which im also sure is unlike the vast majority of american students (or former students). he is just being elitest.
what you on your soapbox call "communicating effectively" the rest of us call "enforcing lame ass tradition". while you can make the argument that not using "proper" english may cause us to forget what "proper" english is, that isnt really much for exposing the alleged effectives of communicating via said english.
in simple terms, since when cant people understand the intent of "definately" or "shoud of"????????? humans are capable of understanding those to mean "definitely" and "should have". so where is the loss of effectiveness? where is the gain by using "proper" english?
but even that goes back to you being a vein asshole. "you <i>appear</i> to be <b>LESS</B> intelligent..." "my cock is bigger than yours! yes, that is right, it is ENORMOUS in comparison! good day sir! seriously if someone understands your intent via your communication, how can you argue that communication style to be less effective?????????
yeah i love how its being hyped up as some sort of blow to p2p.
its PAINFULLY obvious that you cant peddle a product that is intended to commit a crime (copyright infringement).
is it really hard to understand that all you have to do (and always have had to do) is just say that your product is not intended for illegal use.....a la bongs. in fact bongs are the perfect analogy....everyone knows that 99% of people will use them to smoke weed, but their still allowed to be sold because they have a legitimate use (tobacco) and are billed to be used legally.
i mean you hAVE to goto college if you want to not work at mcdonalds. i thought everyone knew that! seriously college is life, and no college is like death or something.
NOT!
so glad that the poster realizes what brainwashing really is:)
homework is a stupid convention. well it doesnt have to be but in practice it is, at least when its a requirement.
school needs to be more personalized and individualized so that each student may learn by the methods that are most effective for that student.
personally i found homework to only be useful in some classes, classes where i needed repetition and slightly different versions of the same problem. i also found that teachers assign WAY too much homework, and i'd end up wasting time doing more problems or questinos when i already understood the subject.
like many other things in american culture education caters to the lowest common denominator.....if some kids need 10 hrs of homework well then EVERYONE gets 10 hrs of homework. if some half brain dead ignorant people like american idol, well then everyone should watch american idol. etc.
people are different, and so things such as school and jobs need to be different so as to accomodate all people. is this really such a hard concept?
is anyone ever going to learn that torrent will not be sustainable as long as there are need for public trackers?
public trackers give mpaa/riaa/whoever someone to sue. and an easy target at that. going after users is obviously much more of a pita as you only stop 1 user when you sure them. however with trackers or with groups linking to trackers you can stop >1 user.
this has been painfully obvious for quite some time.

clinton was tempered by republicans. :(
and you cant fix all the problems
and clinton wasnt reducing funding on a yearly basis
and kanye has it wrong, its not that bush hates black people, its that he loves rich people.
the reason is that the US media cares about $$$$.
and parents in the US largely suck.
just remember, be ever vigilant against the communist subversion plot.
oh wait this is 2005? sorry sorry, beware of the TERRORIST subversion plot!
you neve know who it could be... maybe its you!

just hermetically seal each key to its display!

you are being practical.
which is exactly my point! joe blow knows to put the water first if its the important part.
:)
still tho technically english is on crack, and you sir are on crack for knowing so much about crack
too badd know one knows that

well a real use is that now i can develope software for it.
i fully plan on creating a program to use for my r/c racing...timing, keeping of setups, potentially programming of my speed control, etc.
so there are PLENTY of "real" uses for it
umm no d00d. the difference isnt that much. even if we where talking 5 vs 6 patties.
about how long i give them before its cracked
def dont let jobs in at high schools.
:)
i mean you hAVE to goto college if you want to not work at mcdonalds. i thought everyone knew that! seriously college is life, and no college is like death or something.
NOT!

maybe mpaa loses out as consumbers buy less movies because they never see any movies broadcast!
i love how business convinces the consumer that the consumer will lose out if they dont consume!
they should immediately commercialize the service so that competition will be harbored and user will get cheaper prices!
NOT!
is anyone ever going to learn that torrent will not be sustainable as long as there are need for public trackers?
public trackers give mpaa/riaa/whoever someone to sue. and an easy target at that. going after users is obviously much more of a pita as you only stop 1 user when you sure them. however with trackers or with groups linking to trackers you can stop >1 user.
this has been painfully obvious for quite some time.
as with all lists there is some lameness.
