And which 'hills' would that be. When is the last time you walked with your family more than one mile? Tell me, how much 'fuel' would you carry for you and your family. What about everything else you need to survive? Cloths, diapers, medicine, etc. How about a tent, sleeping bags, and everything else you would need to survive for MONTHS?
Ok, here's a thought. Your mayor just told you to leave town but you don't have any transportation or money, or a place to go, what do you do? You go to where your mayor told you to go (super dome) and wait for help. Leaving town is easy for those of us with options, suck for those who don't. But what does it matter, those people were never going to vote republician anyway.
Once again let's clear up this STUPID RIGHT WING FUD. Al Gore was on the committee that helped in passing legislation in the late 80s that allowed the Arpanet (Internet) to grow by releasing military control and allowing commercial access.
Here in California Shell tried to close a PROFITABLE refinery last year. Turns out it could make more money buy reducing the available gas/diesel supply (and charging more) than it could from the refinery. Luckly the state forced them to sell the refinery. The oil companies have found out when the power companies have found out, if you keep capacity close to demand you can charge what you want.
All's we need is the story running above this one is to read "American Students Dumber than the rest of the World" We want smart kid but then we try to force this crap on them.
Geez, I wouldn't want to work with you. I always sprinkle funny thing in my comments. Kinda like authors that put funny sayings at the beginning of their chapters.
I was going to post the same comment. The only thing that MIGHT make it valid is if the Chip plant is really an assembly plant (wafers -> finished devices). Other than that every Wafer Fab I have worked at we said we were making chips (people understand chips).
I use the Zalman Reserator water cooling system which does not use a fan, plus the Antec Phantom 350 (fan less). I have three case fans that put out 16db. The only noise from my system are the hard drives and I will be getting enclosures for them to. I have a small office at home and the PC noise really gets too me.
Never had this problem. Every time I leave a job I go into the bosses office and do a brain dump all over his desk. Usually I leave dumber than when I came.
I have had companies in California try to get me to sign a non-competition agreement. I tell them that I can because if I do they are breaking the law and I am trying to protect them. In every case they blamed a screwup in HR.
What most of you missed is the parents. It is the parents responsibility to make sure their children are learning in school. It is the parents responsibilty to fill in the gaps they feel their children are missing at school. If your children are failing you need to look no further than yourself for the problem. We expect the schools to be doing our job. I feel the school system will give my children a base to learn on and I will expand on that base. Also, I think kids today are getting WAY TOO MUCH HOMEWORK. Just because my son learned algebra in 5th grade does not mean he will be a success in life. They also need to have fun, make friends, and most of all know how to play.
FYI I know my spelling and grammer suck, live with it, I do. (I code good;-) )
Let's see... Ends justify the means. Microsoft broke the law but we have cheap software. We invade Iraq but now we fight them over there instead of here.

"Basically, Blanco refused to give up control to people who actually had a plan."
Really, who had the plan, it wasn't FEMA. Unless it was about horses.

We do? I'm sorry then didn't we chose Al Gore in 2000.

When I was a machinist our standard of measurement was a RCH. All discussion were based off that.

Did they say how much it would cost to come back to Earth? It's like at the Grand Canyon, mules cost $5 to take you down and $50 to take you back up.

He got to write off the Delorean he bought. Pretty smart move.
In California it is ILLEGAL to ask someone to sign a non-competition agreement.

Not in California. It is illegal in Ca. to restrict where an ex employee can work.
You don't even have to attack, just say you might attack 'sometime soon' and watch oil go through the roof.
I see a big need for HDTV to Analog converters in the future.
How many would YOU want if you were strapped inside?

Wow, what color is the sky in your world? You live in a Red state don't you?

Geez, this list could keep growing.
