    If Saddam had no WMD, who gassed the Kurds (I know that was long ago)?

    The Iraqi's can vote for Saddam for their new leader if they want to. Do you think they will?

    "commit genocide, invade anyone without cause, kill innocent children"

    Those are all illegal in the US, as well as growing plants in your backyard. As for other coutries in America, I am not sure.

    Please don't lump the US in with Canada/Mexico/Other Countries.

    The US doesn't invade without cause. You may not agree with the cause, but that does not negate it.

    When did the US commit genocide? Not your definition, but a generally agreed upon example of when the US did this.

    That's because those standards do not meet our standards. Why the hell should I be subject to another nations laws while in my own country? Ever heard of sovereignty (that spelled right?)

    bpl is not going to bring internet access out to the boondocks. It requires tons of repeaters to be put on the poles because the signal degrades so fast. This requires money. This is the same reason you don't have dsl. It requires an invesment, a large one, by the pwer companies.

    You may notice that the power companies DO NOT use this technology for their own data signalling to and from the boondocks.

    I to live in the boondocks, and I get my connection from a wireless ISP (WISP). Buy a T1, put an 802.11 AP (or wimax pretty soon) box on top of a water tower and sell service to your neighbors to cover your costs.

    If someone doesn't understand the term, I will explain to them what it is. In some cases they then go on to show me how to do it, others can not.

    It is not a test to see if they know the terms. It is a test to see how they solve a problem. That is what our whole interview process is about, seeing if the applicant can solve problems.

    I actually don't give a rats ass if they know c#, any good problem solver can learn that.

    The point is that if you simulate the effects of age on a warhead you don't have to do any realworld testing. It does no good to have a nuclear arsenal that is not capable of being used.
