I get so-called "Spam" quite frequently. I, frankly, don't really see the problem with it. It's just people wanting some help. For instance, yesterday I was contacted by two 18-year old college freshman that were becoming models. They just wanted me to give them feedback on some pictures they took. I went to their site and not only were there pictures of them, but their friends too. I guess college girls are really into amateur photography these days. So I responded to the girl's email (her name was Justine) and gave her some feedback (for instance, I suggested she not let her friends make pop-ups and things on her site (they must be in an HTML class together, I guess). I also suggested that she urge the photographer to use better lighting.) Unfortunately, my email never reached her, I'm not sure what went wrong; it seemed like a valid email address (free_warm_pr0n_4u@yahoo.co.uk). Oh well, I hope that Justine reads this message so she can get my feedback.
I personally enjoy receiving "Spam", as it allows me to help out other web designers with their sites. In exchange, I get to learn about interesting young woman (with some amazing talents). Even better are the ideas people send for me to earn money. Tell me that the human soul isn't a benevolent one, when every day I get mail from people looking to help me earn free money.
I think you should not try to approach the company. They probably won't believe you, and you're not exactly a neutral voice on the matter. So, sign on AOL and go to my friends and my chat room. It's called private room "l33t" (I'm not sure what that means- my step-sister told me about it though). We'll approach the company from an outside standpoint and using our sophisticated Windows ME programs, can demonstrate the faults in their programs.
Please allow us to help; we are only in it for the greater security of everyone. Because last year my personal information got stolen from Burger King, where I work. It wasn't a computer problem, but my manager, José Esposito, left the filing cabinet open because he got grease stuck in the closing mechanism. It was so embarassing having my personal information (including details of my police record and photos of my sister) in the hands of whoever took it. I'm still shaken by the thoughts. Luckily America Online is there to help.
And we want to also help, so please come to our chat room today.

Don't ask me why people have such a hard time listening to music that's just supposed to be fun. I distinctly recall purchasing the Australian import of their first album (Aquarium) at a local Circuit City a few years ago. The 16 year old punkloser laughed at me for buyin' it. Bastard. Aqua rules, I don't care what anyone says.:)

Also, I don't think Gainax gives two shits if ADV puts overlays on their dvd's (well, the first one anyway). Supposedly they haven't gotten along for a long time before that, that's why we're getting Eva without the "director's cut" footage from the Japanese LD's and dvd's (Gainax supposedly wanted to charge out the ass for 'em and ADV wouldn't do it). So yeah, buy the bootleg if you want. I'd rather download an SVCD of EoE digitally fansubbed from the region2 dvd and wait until Manga releases it.:)
Just to pimp another really cheap set, Key: The Metal Idol is on 3 dvd's-
200 min 1st dvd = $29.99
165 min 2nd dvd = $29.99
160 min 3rd dvd = $29.99
Quite a bargain, and the show's pretty good stuff. Kinda explores some of the same themes that Serial Experiments: Lain did, but not quite as good as that. Still, a great deal for a 15 episode series.
Ummm...I'm not so sure about that. There's a lot of debate whether Hideaki Anno caved in and decided to make the movies because fans were so pissed about the TV ending, or if he planned all along. Nobody's sure, and I don't think anyone ever will be. As for the movies originally being done first and then them rushing to create "acceptible" TV endings, I find that hard to believe. Here's an excerpt from the "commentary" on the translated version of the "Red Cross Book", which was available at theaters when EoE was showing:
"At first, the remade episodes 25 and 26 were supposed to be released in OVA, but during production it was decided that it would be a theatre release. There is a "EVANGELION DEATH AND REBIRTH" (Shito Shinsei) which consists of the summary episode of the TV series "Death" and the new remade "Air" which serves as a climax. However, since later the content of the remake grew to an unexpected proportion, the content shown in "REBIRTH" was actually 2/3 of the new episode 25. As the first part of the final, "EVANGELION DEATH and REBIRTH" was shown in March 1997. (from Red Cross Book)
As the series continues, it does seem like budget concerns were an issue as the series progressed, but the last few episodes of the series do make sense within the context of the show. I just happen to think the last couple episodes of the TV series don't hold a candle to what is presented in End of Evangelion. That is art, and it is beautiful.
I also haven't seen Death & Rebirth, but I can see where you'd want to have it. I'd like to watch that and get a brief reminder or events and then be able to watch EoE again, otherwise I think I wouldn't get as much out of it going into EoE cold.
Oh well, hopefully Manga doesn't screw these up (ahem, Wings of Honneamise) and we'll have a nice set. And hopefully ADV re-releases the first dvd with better quality and no overlays. Then life will be good.

That's cool and all. Now we need some French-style striking. Don't get the foosball players painted bi-weekly in your cushy office? STRIKE!
Then we can randomly break servers and cut cables until they give in and rectify these cruel situations. We're not working for Nike are we?

Yeah, I agree. I like up-to-date coverage of what happens at the MPAA and RIAA.
"CNN.com reports that Jeff Bigeo, First Assistant Secretary of Lawsuits for the RIAA ate a ham sandwich for lunch. And then he coughed."
That way, we can justify 500 posts all patting ourselves on the back and saying how much "the Man" sucks.

Nah, it's a bootleg.
