Because in the pre 2003 Prius the transmission is still manualy linked (is the minor way it is). With the 2003 model they went with the keyless tech for ignition and added drive by wire gearshift (some cars call it a "sportshift").
Also the transmission in the prius is a CVT not computer controled, so the gears are not fixed like you seem to be thinking.
See the post about the B setting on the Prius for more info on it.
As for emergency brake you might try using it with the normal brake system to slow/stop (as others have pointed out mashing the normal brake should overpower the engine). Seems a radical thought but this whole discussion seems full of ignorant spouting.
This is not directed at the parent. Maybe if people tried to educate themselves instead of spouting off unfounded nonsense/. wouldnt be such a wasteland.
You seem to assume there is only 1 control computer for the entire car, I dont know the exact electronic layout of my Prius, but it would appear from a glance that there are several.
Dried powerded human excrement was packed around explosives used in (I cant remember if it was china or elsewhere in "Asia") war back a long long time ago. AFAIK these bio weapons were used on their own people.
I am not the above AC but I dont understand your reasoning. Let me get this straight. You lose you job and don't bother to take advantage of the unemployment compensation (and other aspects of the social safetynets like food stamps) you paid for with all that work, while you try to find a new job.
You let your family suffer and brought a new life into this situation, all for some (IMO dumb) attitude about not using the safetynet?
Or did I not understand "The government didn't help me, and I didn't ask." This (from my viewpoint) is stupid (I tried to think of any other word that fit and isn't "name calling", but am at a loss), especially if you have a young one on the way!
What do you mean by this "I found the strength to survive and move forward, Helped by the lessening of government restraints"? Are you implying that people accepting unemployment checks, food stamps/donations from food banks, or say heating assistance are being held back by "the man"?
Are you some kind of Nietzschean Ubermensch who puts his pants on 6 legs at a time?
I think you will see those higher speed chips in the IBM pSeries hardware before you see it in an Apple. Not to dis Apple users but IBM usually tests and sets out the basic design before doing the custom job (because the chips apple wants are different from a stock PPC) for Apple.
Now I may not know what "cool" is anymore but at 31 I think most of the Gamecube (and PSX/PS2) games I own and play are cool. Sounds to me like you buy into that whoe x-treme marketing "edgy" thing they try to use as cool. I think Sega used to do this as well. I always thought console gaming was about having fun and enjoying the games, not being a "cool" individual, just like everyone else. If you like games buy whatever console you like based on the games it offers. And for god sake dont send you kid to college with things you think he should have to fit in and be "cool". Instead let him/her make the deceision on what they want.
And that certainly isn't our fault as Gamecube owners. EA fucked us, hard. I was all set to pre-order it as I have loved burnout 1&2 on the Cube. Now I have the choice of buing a new (old one died) PS2 for a crappy Burnout (if it is anything like how 2 was developed) or buy a Xbox. I'm sorry but as good as burnout is I cant justify buying even a used xbox for just 1 game as noting else on the X-box realy makes me want to own one.

"Hybrids made more sense, but for a reasonable fraction of my driving (hauling bikes up mountain roads) were way underpowered."
Why do you say this? I drive a Prius and drove from Columbus Ohio to some place in Western North Carolina (via Ohio->W.VA.->Kentucky->Corth Carolina and reverse) and had no problem doing 70+ on the steep hills/mountins. I have also driven up shorter much steeper grades, and frankly Htybrids have a lot more umph then anything else I have driven on that kind of hill.
I do think my little Prius is a bit bad for old back roads that are mostly mud, and if thats what you were talking about I do understand.
Ya know, I think we could use a "updated" Magic Carpet type game. Been wishing for one actually for quite a while as I am tired of using cpu slow utilities to play MC1 and 2.
Let me tell you some people who cared, the Atomic Vets. The ones the government and militery was/is/has not been helpful with in dealing with the ensuing health issues over the years. I'm sure there are manu other groups who could have needed those kinds of records no matter how mundane they seem.
"Jihad did have two variant meanings through the centuries, one more radical, one less so. The first holds that Muslims who interpret their faith differently are infidels and therefore legitimate targets of jihad. (This is why Algerians, Egyptians and Afghans have found themselves, like Americans and Israelis, so often the victims of jihadist aggression.) The second meaning, associated with mystics, rejects the legal definition of jihad as armed conflict and tells Muslims to withdraw from the worldly concerns to achieve spiritual depth."
Since thats the operating temp range of most processors theese days. It might make a decent thermal interface for heatsinks assuming it can transfer heat well.
Check out the Kitchen go to the "Tako's Food Science Lab" and read the section titled "The Millard Reaction". I'm guessing this guy discovered the process and probably can be googled for more information.
The one I remember is when they are going from Yellow to Red alert. Rimmer: Go to red alert! Kryten: Are you sure sir? That will mean changing the bulb.
Wel I went looking for the place that made me view the "enough" as important to be there (I think it may have been a semantic discussion on a message board or something like that. I was thinking I might have gotten it from usenet, but I never read rec.guns and thats the only place the "enough" version turns up in groups.
In reading this I have had my eyes opened by his research and am open to his idea about it's life on the web.
Deviation? Not much IMO. From listening to them over the years and actually reading the album inserts (dont buy from people like BMG who rip out info) he shoots for exactly the same music. Sometimes to the point of having members of the original band work on the studio version. Another example was as I remember Dire Straits supposedly wanted to do the music part of the Money for Nothing parody. Now he does on some songs (usually food related) replace some insturment with a different sound but is playing the same part ( Girls just want to have lunch).
So far s I can tell from the technical side of the problem, it is not possible until we get much higher output LED tech. Thats why everyone went with lamps. I was an active member of a DIY boad about projectors for a while (at the time ie was one of the top discussions on the net about DIY projectors) and no one there no matter how wishful or full of optimism could make do with LED tech. There is simply too much light intensity lost in the process for LED to work except in pitch blackness and even then it's not too bright.

Look up the Alpha and get back to us.
Your wong about NEC and the TG16. It has 2 8 bit chips, thats where it claimed it was a 16 bit system.
Well, why not say "If MS could declair marshal law and take over the government they could force everyone to only use MS consoles in the US".
I doubt MS could offer Miyamato the freedom to "innovate" the way he likes, and besides I seem to remember him not being inclined to leave Nintendo.
Square Enix might be possible, but I think it would turn into another Rareware.

You could try importing your Wizardry 7 party into Wizardry 8. IMO a good (but late) end to Sir Tech and it's flagship title.
What about this so called "Mr. Kite"?
Clearly a secret cover for some activity.

Actually it's a floor wax and a desert topping.

I think that #2 they now call "flip floping" but I agree that anyone who will press on with a single mindset no matter what is presented is insane.

Buy a LG or other multi format drive. My drive cost about $100 (back in march) and does all the formats you mention except multi layer.
I seem to remember the play up for Diablo II being worse. Tere were stand up adverts in stores and all kinds of stuff over a year before it was ut.
So they have a trademark on an abbreviation of a word?
'droid is android. Or does he have some whacko explination for the presence of the "'".
This opens up a whole new world of "intellectual property" abuse, maybe I can "get mine" now.
I wonder if he was hoping that TM on the word NAZI was enforceable (see carboard figures in Indiana Jones RPG from back in the 80's).
