The Declaration is a historical document. "We, the People" means the 55 people who signed it. If you recite it, I suppose I might assume that you hold those truths to be self evident, but that's about it.
The Plege of Allegiance is a pledge. You state right at the beginning that this is what you believe, and also that you will act accordingly. If it isn't, then there's a problem.
No-one focusses on the words after "under God". I see some pretty deep divisions right here.
Asimov had a short story about this. Chap A had a list of thousands of people who bet on horses. He hired the narrator of the story to lump these people into a database, and mail them the "guaranteed winner" of a four horse race. After four races, for each thousand people on the list you now had four true believers, who would pay you large amounts of money for your next prediction.
When I was typing the parent comment I was drawing a total blank on the name of Midge Ure's band. It hit me on Sunday evening while I was repairing the garage door.
Ahah! I have been waiting for an excuse to break the shrinkwrap on the boxed set my parents gave me last year (the twenty-year-old paperbacks finally gave out).
OK, this is the 1997 Harper Collins paperback. The cover of TTT is a picture drawn by JRRT. From the back cover: "It shows the One Ring above Mount Doom, flanked by the towers of Minas Morgul and Orthanc, while above it flies a Nazgul. The tengwar inscription oin the centre reads, 'In the land of Mordor where the shadwows lie.'"
Right, and that's why I keep wibbling on about informed consent. An ideal court ruling would be that if Gator had obtained, or made an effort to obtain, the informed consent of its users, then what it does would be legal. However, since they clearly *don't*, they should lock them up and throw away the key.
That's about the best point I've seen in this thread yet. I don't know. I don't know what law they'd be breaking. If I knew (i.e. informed consent, which, in general, Gator doesn't have) that this was happening, then it should be legal. Otherwise, who knows?
Depends. Is Gator a third party, or an agent of the second party? If Gator.com was serving up other people's content with the ads replaced, they would be a third party, and I'm pretty sure it would be illegal. But running as part of my browser, presenting content to me in the way I choose seems legitimate to me (although IANAL).

I just bought an 7200rpm 80GB drive for $72. So thats about 90 cents/GB
Pop-ups are the fizzling neon signage of the net. If you see it, you know you're somewhere unsavoury.
Unlike spam, you can simply avoid such sites, and your pop-up problem is solved.

All of whom pointed out that Putty does indeed now do port forwarding. And particular thanks to Simon and the Putty team for making it so.

I would go back to Putty in a flash if it did port forwarding. Till then, ttssh for me.

As I pointed out here, it is pretty clear that Tolkein thought the Two Towers were Minas Morgul and Orthanc.

So I was wrong, but not nearly as wrong as you
Analysis of the frame with the official movie URL: "Bah. Who's got the frame-by-frame analysis?"
is about the journeys of the fractions of the Fellowship towards Isengard (Tower of Orthanc) (Book III) and Mordor (Tower of Barad-Dur) (Book IV).
The Gates of the Argonath to whic you refer, while spectacular, play no further part in the plot.
You are obviously going to the wrong parties.
Some self-described "composer" who doesn't even write real music you can hum along with is suing the man who wrote "THE WOMBLING SONG".
Sounds like you need to join the Church of England. They move their services if they clash with a World Cup game.
Parrotty error would be "Pieces of seven! Pieces of seven!"
Oh, Vienna!
I never understood that song.
I believe they are accused of violating the EULA of the XBox Developers Kit.

So it would be illegal for my ISP to do this. But Gator is not an ISP.

Please do!

Since this is happening at the client end, I think this is closest to the second option above, which would make it legal.
