His show routinely presents Mr Satan in a bad light, and does not do as much on the crap from the Angels. When he has devil/angel guests on, he routinely softballs the angels, and asks pointed questions (well, for a daily show interview) of the satanists.
Don't listen to the Windows naysayers and the Apple fanboys, Linux is a perfectly capable system for any task if you put the time and effort to do the inital setup properly, specially in an academic context (for bunny's sakes, I am dismayed at how many people can't overcome the thought that computer skills and computer services can be provided with something else different from Windows based software. The brainwash is so torough that one has to admire the people in Redmond for this achievement).

And the CO2 generated would be too little to terraform the planet, unless we all went there and started breathing in earnest, since some kind soul here in/. suggested that human breathing generates more CO2 than our polution.
I can think of several way to achieve agitated copious breathing, exercise is not one of them......
What many Star Wars fan boys do not appreciate here is that by showing Star Wars trash (sorry guys, do not tell me that based on the recent evidence you are expecting much out of this movie) in Cannes other movies, without the advertisement and PR muscle of mega films like this, are losing yet one more place of difussion to the big Hollywood steamroller.
Many important directors (including Akira Kurosawa) and movies were introduced to the wolrd by means of a showing in Cannes.
If Cannes is starting to move into a minor PR exercise for Hollywood we all become poorer culturally.
Star Wars does not need Cannes, it will suck all the same and will break box office records in any case.
The ones that will sufffer are the movies left out of the show that we will never know about. That my friends is a big tragedy.
A treaty is called that for a reason: it is a compromise.
You do some things that you want to do but give up others.
Rich countries already poluted their way into full development, it would be unrealistic to expect developing nations to stop them on their tracks while they are trying to achieve to become wealthier.
The idea behind Kyoto is that development countrie can reach a degree of development in which then they don't have to commit the same mistakes that today's rich countries commited during their industrialization, but they need a break to get there.
In the mean time, the biggest poluters, which are still the rich countries, take responsibility of the mess they are causing because they have the means to do so now.
All this is accounted for, each country would have specific targets according to its level of development and amount of polution. This is not fancy numbering, this is a treaty that at least offers a plan to work towards solving this problem.
The problem is global, some countries need to be left off the hook for a while, while others have to take actions now, to keep hapring at stupid national interests in the face of a change that does not recognize any borders is moronic on extreme.
So you think Bush, Cheiney and Rice, all entangled awith the oil industry, will do anything about global warming and carbon emissions?
On their own?
Harming US jobs? (well, as long as they can't be outsourced elsewhere).
Honestly, you naivity is touching, unfortunately the millions that will pay the consequences am sure do not appreciate your rosy tainted view of US politics.
I am glad to see that your "insightfulness" is being rightly punished.
A few points for whoever is following this thread:
-Two independent teams reached the same conslussions.
-If they wanted to prove a point a priori then some of their masters are not tellings us something: some of these people are financed by the US goverment.
-The study concentrates in energy in the sea water in all the oceans. The article explains far better thatn I can ever do why this is a definitive new insight. GO and check it.
- This is not the only evidence we have, ther are literally tons of it all around the place. But this pretty much is the clincher.
The other guy obviously is mentioning that in the context of a place that is cold. Many people in that situation want to bring a tropical climate into their houses when in reality they could just wear a warmer sweater.
In your case the use of air conditioning should be rationalized, air conditioning pumping cold air 24x7 is in much cases unnecessary and can be improved by control systems or simply by cooling houses only when the inhabitants are there.
Nobody is asking everybody to abandon the car and bike.
But people in your situation can look for a lot of improvements in how they consume energy:
-Use of efficent vehicles (SUVs, specially US sized SUVs are a complete and absolutely disgrace in most cases). -Fuel efficency (most building are poorly insulated, thus needing more heating or cooling). -No use at all of alternative energies (why is that governments are not mandating solar panels or small wind generators in all new constructions?).
And so on and so forth. It is up to us to fix the probelm, there are many things we can do to fix things without seriously compromising or standards of living. Unfortunately the political will is not there, unsurprisingly in a country like the US where the President and Vicepresident and Secretary od State (yeah, your Condy) had deep interests in the oil industry in the past (and who knows which under the table interests they may still have).
..... how do you change human behaviour in a global scale without politics?
The Kyoto agreement may not be perfect, heck, I am prepared to concede that is not good at all and that it will not solve the problem.
But it is the only damn thing we have got, and even such an imperfect thing took 8 years to be implemented (imperfectly as you know if you are USian, since your Dear Leader, is ignoring it).
In Windows you are subjected to the whims of whatever company or individual that handles to put a piece of software in your computer, from known manufacturers to spammers, crackers and fraudsters.
With windows you are waiting that uncles Bill snaps his fingers to be out of support, need to upgrade or having to agree to draconian EULAs when installing things like media viewers.
With Linux you are free of those inconveniences and you know that the software you use has a better chance to be improved in the benefit of the users that use it, not in the benefit of the company that produces it.
.... for the retraining of people to use new iterations of MS products.
So many people support this completely false dichotomy between not need to train for MS stuff or retraining for other products.
This is nonsense of course since people do need retraining even if you remain a 100% MS serf, er, client.
So my point is, retraining costs are a red herring that MS fanboys repeat incesantly, without noticing the profitable business of the publishers of WIndows for dummies series.

It is mostly unimaginative, repetitive nonsense.
A few masterpieces worth watching, that in general, funnily enough, are not action histories.

One comment only: Doh!
Which applications you don't need?
That should guide you in your quest.

Why o why people keep asking the same stupid question?
The revenue and the earnins should give you a clue at how good they are making money.
A company investing 1000000 and arning 900000 is crap (putting all this out of any context).
Another one investing 10000 and making 20000 is much more profitable.
Anyone that still believes it is about buying and selling code is compltetely deluded.

If you keep arguing with fool people endessly waiting for their ascent you will never move forward.
There is a point where the fools should be ignored and move forward with all our might to tackle the problem.
The US attitude on this respect is a big obstacle, but responsible, intelligent people have to try against all ods to do somthing about the situation.
It is a pity that in this situation the fool happens to be the biggest bully.
Honestly, at what moment it becomes folly to argue in favour of a flat Earth or a Sun centered Universe?
This study (with millions of readings and two independent teams reaching the same results) probes unquestionably the point.
In this context you are a flat Earth proponent and from now on worhthy of the same contemept your correligionaries are.
