The US government is Constitutionally prohibited from sanctioning any state religion. In recent decades that has been bastardized into not recognizing any religion.
Others responding to you seem to be confusing IRS not-for-profit status with religion. They are not the same. The Catholic Church and the NAACP both enjoy not-for-profit status, but the latter is not a religion even though they both have the same tax status.
BTW, not-for-profit != "non-profit", the former is a tax status (more precisely a not-federally-and-other-places-taxed status) and the latter means you do not make a profit. Yes, there is a huge reality difference and a small technical difference.
I hope not! Pictures of dead Presidents from the neck up are fine. Backsides have no place on US money, well, unless it is like a J-Lo backside (I know she is not Brazilian, but she should be).
Ahem, CACI and many other companies do the SAME "sensitive" work, are subs and primes on the same contracts/projects, and are publically traded.
This is such an over speculated issue that I almost have to laugh whenever it makes it's rounds back into "news". In the 90's it was 'SAIC is really the government' and 'SAIC secretly runs the government', etc.
All SAIC does is tell the employees what their "stock" is worth without allowing a market to give them a second opinion.

Cheap Video Sniffing

Very true, all it has is how to bring together a 2.4 GHZ analog receiver, battery and screen. Big wow.
Plus the odd closing statement: anyone want a combo WiFi/Video sniffer for Christmas? Well, I do, but I certainly can not find out from that article. Will have to wait for someone to coax a WiFi card into sniffing analog signals and playing them on a computer.
Point being, due to restricting encryption various agencies can scan all the telephony communications without any effort.
How are the "real criminals" restricted? They can literally use whatever they like and, yes, this is yet another arguement against encryption restriction.
The main reason that I included that passage in the story was because it appears that no investigation was thwarted by encryption.
Point being, all of this claptrap on restricting encryption is just that, meaningless nonsense.
If encryption were creating a real problem for law enforcement then there would be some number of un-decripted messages to account for and I would not assume even that would create a problem in each instance.
What happened to his old trailer? Was it just a plain aluminum job like the kind old people tow to Florida?
I hope his trailer is made of something really strong, like adamantium(sp?) as in Wolverines bones. Stainless just does not stand up to the nasty temper of the Hulk!
That is just more proof that he is a time traveler.
Why isn't there any evidence now?
I suggest that he started snopes and WWN after this story appeared in order to strengthen his case, then destroyed the SEC records to cover his tracks.
The solution is already out there.

Don't rabbits and deer already produce small pellets that emit methane?
Cows produce large methane generating chips too.
Certainly helps with the energy company PR problems, who can argue with a fluffy little cute bunny? Will Greenpeace dare break out the holy hand grenade?

Don't forget to leave the word "SAMPLE" intact when printing. This is a key component in detecting fakes :-)
Are they brazilian-looking?
I hope not! Pictures of dead Presidents from the neck up are fine. Backsides have no place on US money, well, unless it is like a J-Lo backside (I know she is not Brazilian, but she should be).
Or just use a really hot LASER to start with.
High unemployment? Did you guys run out of trees to cut down? I thought logging was big business there, did the rest of the world stop using wood?

Sorry, still doing my happy dance. Will get back to you later.
What a bunck of pricks! Not you, the moderators.
Obviously I agree with you. Hopefully you do not get mod-whacked by some humourless person as I did :(
One packet and I can enslave them all!

I like this better than any Pooh book or cartoon ever! Had to wait until I was well over 30 before it discovered me too :(

Umm, how are the rest of us "restricted"?

Yes, like with that Cisco-Fed aliance in an earlier story

He probably launched the moon too.
