ep. Any clues on the REAL recipie? I've been looking and all i can find are cheap knockoffs.
There was a woman who toured the factory with her daughter. She asked if she could have the recipe and they of course said no. Then she asked if she could buy it and they said "sure, it's two-fifty." Pretty inexpensive, she thought, and since she had already opened a tab at the Silly Putty company store, she said "just put it on my tab." A few weeks later she gets a bill for $250!! Well she was so steamed that she emailed the recipe to all her friends, and encouraged them to do the same. That showed them!!
hat is truly childish...A code monkey in the trenches who needs a job to pay the bills isn't necessarily an enemy of open source.
I'm guessing that their reasoning is that anyone who stayed on at SCO either agrees with them, or lacks the moral fortitude to resign, and that they are not interested in associating with either type of employee.
Microsoft has once again shifted the schedule for the release of "Longhorn"...now executives are declining to say when they expect the software to ship.

Why don't you put down your bible for a bit and pick up an English book? You embarrass the rest of us.
If you have any hourly people, that means for every hour of lost productivity it costs you 2.5 hours worth of money.
Maybe I'm missing your point, but you'd have had to pay them for that original hour's work anyway, so the cost of the virus is only the difference, not the total amount. If your 2.5 comes from an hour of overtime, then the cost is 1.5 hours of pay.

I agree. Are you sure Idle wrote it? I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just surprised.
You might find this interesting, then.
The article is misleading. The book was stolen so often that many retailers either stopped carrying it or kept it behind the counter.
well yeah, that was kinda what I was making reference to.

I guess your second sentence there caught you off guard, since had you seen it coming you'd have known the answer to your question.
Another guy from that era, Budrys, never quite got his due, I think.
Search me. Heck, I can't even define "tems" and "ehy."

The best comment in the bunch, and it's posted anonymously.

That's pretty funny. I'm going to have to steal that sometime.
It's poetry, ya know. Changing the words kinda breaks that, dontcha think?
Yeah. And what's with that "multimedia" anyway? Who came up with that gem?
Gracias. He vivido en Costa Rica hace tres anos, y siempre quiero mejorar mi espanol. Nunca he escuchado (o por lo menos, notado) esa palabra.
(Hmm. I can't convince slashdot to include tildes and accents.)
Don't why it would be flamebait. Silly, maybe, but not flamebait.
I love that song.
I like it too. It's the song that introduced me to TMBG.
Since he had three sides triangle man makes more sense. Triangle Man hates Particle Man, BTW. And what do you mean "we" ?
Espabilar? Que significa esa?
My more centrist side says...
My cynical side says...
Hey look! It's Triangle Man!

As a cup of coffee is mostly water, I doubt they were able to heat it to 400 degrees.

Why? Because computers are so bad at things like counting and keeping track of stuff?
No they don't. On first run, heavily marketed films they keep hardly any of it. That's why the popcorn is so expensive.
