If this goes unchallenged, the possibility of abuse against people "not with the team" is almost a definite.
No, it isn't. When's the last time 2600 planned the murder of people because of their race/religion? Correct, never. These groups specified by the government are actually terrorist groups, they weren't listed because of some agenda by big business and this isn't an issue of free speech. They aren't stopping you from visiting the sites, just giving them monetary support.
Actually, I should take back the well documented evidence statement since they all seem to rely on witness statements. Still, it'd be interesting to see some type of good research into the matter.
Ah, thanks for the link. I know this isn't the one I was trying to recall, but I guess there's a lot of them... I wonder why the Wrights got all of the credit when there seems to be well documented evidence that they weren't the first.
I've been curious about this. I've also seen some stuff saying that someone other than the Wrights made a powered flight in 1900 or 1901 in the US somewhere. Does anyone have any information on supposed powered flights prior to the Wrights' in 1903?
You're digging too deep. 'American' is pretty much synonymous with US citizen around the world. Yes, technically Canadians are Americans, Mexicans are Americans, et cetera, but semantically they are not. You're not gonna be able to change that.
According to NTSB records, with search criteria from dates 1/1/02 through 1/1/03 there were 72 helicopter accidents (report status as final), with only two of those accidents including fatalities (three fatalities total). I dunno about you, but that seems like a pretty decent record. It's not really practical to compare civil aviation for airplanes to military helicopter operations in wartime conditions.
It'd be far more difficult and expensive to maintain and operate dozens of rocket powered aircraft as camera platforms than it does now for helicopters and planes.
Yeah, unmanned aerial vehicles are probably the future, but not rocket powered cruise missiles. Piston powered and turbine powered aircraft are much more efficient than rockets.
First, it doesn't say anywhere that vegetarians live longer. It just says that in places where meat consumption, etc. is lower than what Americans are used to usually have a healthier and longer living population. There've been numerous studies on it (search on Google), such as the average diet in the Mediterranean region.
Not entirely true. DJ Tiesto, Paul van Dyk, and BT all make their own music as well as mix other's music into sets.

At this time, in the United State there is NOT a government mandated fuel consumption, and vehicles are increasing thier fuel efficentcy, not because of government mandates, but because the marketplace demands it.
Yes, it does. It's called CAFE (corporate average fuel economy). It states that each manufacturer has to meet the standards CAFE sets, which is currently 27.5 miles per gallon (MPG) average for passenger cars, and 20.7 MPG for light-trucks (SUVs included). This means that for a certain model year, that manufacturer's fleet must average out to meet the CAFE standards. If they don't meet these standards they are liable for a civil penalty of 5.00 USD for each 0.1 MPG its fleet is below the standard, multiplied by the number of vehicles it produces.
Check here for some more information. It's got a "graph" which shows where it will be visible, and how much of the eclipse you'll see for your particular location.

Yeah, I'm sure a company suing on grounds of a frivolous patent to make money is going to use it for good.
Just because they target MS doesn't mean they're saints trying to save the web, as you seem to think. This is the real world, you know, money is king.
Instead of WinZip, try QuickZip. It's freeware and is very simple to use and supports a fair bit of file types.

What does IIRC(Intensive Internet Relay Chat) have to do with it?
Nothing. He was using IIRC for "If I Recall/Remember Correctly".
