    Start your own Corporation with the right Mission Statement.

    Make the System yourself.

    Design the System around WORDS ----- Comments, comprehension Tests.... House / Senate / "People" each get 1/3rd Share in the voting System... System CANNOT generate new Law until ALL THREE vote in Unison... etcetera.

    Who will start the corporate Charter?

    Excuse me... And if I had a huge Bankroll.

    The Banks would never give you a loan to do something like this.

    You're gonna have to take to the Streets if you want to get Money from the People and you're a good enough Educator and Organizer.

    You could have something similar to Reddit, a grading system to see how much the Representatives *and* the People are truly comprehending the Material they are voting on, a voting System,obviously built around Instant-Runoff Voting or the Like for Officers, and possibly a 2/3rd "Republic" Lean toward the House and Senate, then a 1/3rd "Democratic" Lean toward FOSS. Each has a 1/3rd Share... and CANNOT do Anything without ALL THREE of Them being 'N Sync.

    You could do numerous Things with free / open source Software and WORDS.

    LEGISLATION is nothing more than Words used in a Society. LEGALESE *is* a Language for the LAW Society, and Citizens, or "Subjects".

    If you choose to Subject Yourself to the System... then go ahead and vote.

    I won't be voting until I get a System that I want.

    Somebody needs to build the alternate System, tho. That's the problem.

    If only I could program.... :(

    You can too choose a different government than your neighbor does.

    We are running CONSTITUTIONAL governments here.

    If this is something that the people want, then the people can start all types of initiations.

    THE STATES can change thing in multiple ways when people wake up to the reality that they are the true masters.

    Education and Organization will lead the way.

    Who will lead the way? If not all, then we have no control. Slap each other in the face until you all WAKE UP.

    If you want something different. WAKE UP!! STAND UP!! SHOUT OUT!!

  5. Re:Dell 2405FPW?!?!?! on Massive Graphics Card Review · · Score: 1

    It looks like I'll prolly go with the 6600GT 128MB AGP....definitely seems to be the best value. How many people out there are happy with their 6600GT between their linux box and their dell 2405fpw??? Just need to add the correct resolutions to the modelines, correct? The linux drivers do support portrait modes, right? Any other advice before I click the buy button (i.e. - should I get the slightly more expensive XFX card with dual DVI, or will the cheaper eVGA with one VGA and one DVI connectors be plenty if I only plan on using one monitor??) Alright...and my last one this time...how do videos of lesser resolutions look on the 2405fpw...are they blurry enough to be bothersome in your opinion(s)???

  6. Dell 2405FPW?!?!?! on Massive Graphics Card Review · · Score: 1

    I want this monitor.....can somebody please help me figure out what is the bare minimum agp nvidia card required to run it at full resolution over DVI??? Is a plain ol' 6200 good enough to take advantage of that massive screen real estate??? Any forums that answer this question would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
