Lets think about this.
I buy a new car. It looks pretty, seems to run good on the lot. Now, the guy across the road sold the dealer the car and he knows that the tires are retreads, the engine has sawdust in it and the doorlocks will open if you kick the door....
Why shouldn't he be able to tell me these things??
I think that mircrosoft should be responsible for thier code. Period.
If I can write code that doesn't break, I would think that the dozens of programers they have hired could do the same. Why isn't there a lemon law for sofware?
Question: If my computer is connected to the college network, does that make my computer part of the network? Do the Admins have the right to look through my files if this is so?
If this is true, then doesn't AOL or any other ISP have the right to look at your files since you are dialed in and connected to their network?
I agree that if the mp3's were stored on the college's servers, then yea, they should be punished, but if the files were on personal computers, (located ON the campus, but in private rooms), shouldn't they have required some sort of permission to get to them?
"Why does every question lead to another question?"
This is just one more step toward the government trying to control the internet. When will they realize that when you mess with internet lifeforms, they will bite back and defend their 'offspring'.

I am reminded of a line by Robin Williams...
Stop, or I'll say stop again....

Just my pair of odors.

With the emperor defeated/occupied, his control over the Imperial Forces weakened enough for the good guys to get in.
The emperor was controling the battle from his throne, without him they would have lost a lot sooner.
Without Luke, the emperor would have been able to foil any attempts the rebels made.
Look at it like this.
Without time, we couldn't see anything, feel anything, hear anything, smell anything, or even taste anything.
Velocity is based on time, so nothing will move.
Light and sound move on a basis of velocity....therefore......
All in all.....nothing would move and nothing would exist. (provided time doesn't exist.)
As long as they throw the right magic items into the movie....
Gota see either a wand of wonder, or deck of many things.
And of course for the climax, someone breaks their Staff of the Magi over their knee.....

Out of all the gaming platforms in this 'wonderful' age of computers, what would you say is your favorite and why?
Question everything!
All we need now is for staroffice to open up so that the developers at kde can chew through it to get koffice up an running.
Power without perception is spiritualy useless, and therefore of no true value.
Where does it say in a beer comercial that you will have sex if you drink this beer??
It implies that, but it doesn't say that.
I think he should win.
If pepsi is stupid enough to offer it, they should be willing to own up to their responsibilities.
Pepsi was counting on people being so stupid that they would never have thought about actually trying for the jet.
Advertising is one thing, but playing on the 'moo-ish' people out there is just ignorant.
Smart/creative people should be rewarded, not punished.
Just MHO.
I like that idea......
