I have mixed feelings about that one. Certainly, Ashcroft is a boob, but if it was a female AG covering up the statue because it "degraded women", you know Rush, Sean et al would be all over it and we'd be trying to defend the action.
I know we have some porn site admins that post to slashdot. Maybe they can answer this question. Do you do it just to corrupt the youth of America, or do you just enjoy watching our moral guardians froth at the mouth? Obviously you can't be doing it for the money, because kids don't have any, and because you give so much of your content away for free, anyway.
Or is it that you actually want to sell your content to consenting adults, and the whole kids thing is a smokescreen thrown up by wannabe censors who don't want you to be able to do that, either?
Plagiarism, omission and opinion are one thing. Lying is another. The movie got by Moore's fact checkers because all the statements of fact in the movie are correct. Not that they should have bothered, because there are obviously people willing to accuse him of lying anyway.

The problem here is that the pattern itself conveys information independent of the medium. It doesn't matter much whether the pattern is formed from clean spots or spray paint.
How many Linux distros install by default a service that cannot be turned off, that runs as root, that listens on a privileged port, and has a buffer overflow vulnerability?
Not that any of those problems don't occur in any given Linux distro, but to combine all four of them requires a total contempt for the well being of your customer.
Do you think you could convince your compatriots of this? The rest of us have known for some time that America is no better than any other country, but Americans in general appear to have a problem with this concept.
Alternatively, we (probably - I can't speak for all 6 billion of us) would not mind you constantly claiming to be better than us if you behaved better than us.
Apparently you are still using the same versions of Windows and Office as you started with. Life cycle of a Microsoft product, from release to totally unsupported, is typically about 8 years. That means mandatory retraining at least that often.
I took a road trip up the left coast last year. Portland is great. Unfortunately, it was not great enough to make up for spending the night before in Medford.
I don't go home to protect my childrens psychological and emotional development. I go home because I want to be with them. I think that's what the grandparent was saying, too.
Someone over at Groklaw this morning was claiming that RBoC is the only major Canadian bank not still running OS/2. RBoC uses an OS from a company that's fairly close to Vancouver that is unbeloved of/.ers.
You must have missed the McDonalds executives claiming that McDonalds' food is "nutritious".
It's the same lie that got the tobacco industry where they are now. Everyone knew smoking causes lung cancer. The cigarette companies bribed enough scientists to falsify results to create a controversy, and survived decades of court cases on the resulting ambiguity.
Someone from McDonalds should stand up and say that people who want to live had better not eat more than one Big Mac a week. It may cut profits a little now, but they'll save themselves billions in the future.

Personally, I think boredom can be dealt with. It's the realization that you will spend 18 years of your 5,000 year lifespan at school, and the next 4,500 years as a wage slave, paying taxes to support the older generations through their 500 years of retirement.

That's right. Sinclair is just doing this to balance all the stations that are broadcasting Fahrenheit 9/11 and Going Upriver.
Here's a list of those stations:

I will listen to what they have to say when they stop employing SCO shill Laura Didio.
Rather, we should send up the Webb-Ellis telescope, which will pick up the other telescopes and run with them.
[OK it was lame, but there's no-one in the office. What else am I supposed to do?]

Actually, it does. It's the whole point, in fact.
Like "we own your money, tough sh!t"?
Are you hiring?

Third amendment is that Congress can't send the army to stay in your house. Apparently it doesn't apply to Saddam Hussein.
Funny, but also insightful. In meters per second, c is an integer.
and 1 nano-c is about 1km per hour. Saying your car goes 231 nanoc is no more awkward than saying it goes 145 miles per hour.

If you give him your CD collection does he get the licences required to listen to the music?

Apologies if this is a double post. The first attempt went into limbo. However, the Slow Cowboy filter appears to think I posted it.

No, I just type really fast, particularly when most of my post is already in the clipboard.
Nah, it's a historical critique of the military strategy of Richard the Third.
