If they MUST install a gps in my car I want free turn by turn driving instructions. Better yet Full onstar capabilities for free (Well actually paid for by the tax collected huh).
They say they have to because they plan to charge different rates for different roads. How about they forget that plan. I agree I will pay the flat per mile tax even if some of those miles happen to be in Canada or Mexico.
Divide the monies gathered at the federal level by the total miles of roadway (or total number of drivers) and then apportion to the states by the same measure.
You're not going to claim that if astronomers really wanted to be scientific, they would start their research by gathering up a bunch of hydrogen and piling it together in empty space and then watching what happens, are you?
I want to watch that study, That would be soooo cool!
No, If that is all you did. But add these things to your straw man..
You pretend to be a friend to your target, you build up and flatter them for a period, you build trust. You spend months doing this. Then you suddenly change. That's the harassment. You should be charged for that. If it can be proven that your target was not of sound mind and might have been easy to push to suicide and you knew it, that's worse than harassment.
All wealth stems from theft either now or in earlier eras.
I see, so when I am the best at building widgets, and you buy one of my widgets because it is good quality and worth the price to you, this is theft?
Oh, I get it, I should *give* you the widget just because I have many and you have none. Even If I had to buy materials and spend time to make the widget, I am evil, mean and nasty to not just give you one.
I would have. I suppose I should have because of all the people who did just accept their number an have it printed on the check, but I figured that was their problem.
Actually, If it is clear before I purchase the noodles and you can prove you made it clear, then yes you may be able to stop me from describing your noodle dish.
On the other hand, If I were to enter a restaurant and see a big sight that said I can't talk about the restaurant to anyone or about it's food, then I might just leave without buying any.
If you find a book, where ever and you keep it you might be stealing it from whoever dropped it, but you are not copying it, so no you did not violate copyright.
A friend can still buy a CD and even if they play it for a year, give it to you.
In either case there is no copy being made. Now if you find a book on your friend's bookshelf and go down to Kinko's and photocopy the whole thing, you have violated copyright.
But then the first amendments only really prevents government control of speach. If I want to have an all out <ideology> website, I can erase <opposing ideology> posts with impunity. It is, after all my own website. It's just that the government cannot make a law saying I have to delete <opposing ideology> posts.
At least if all databases used some random unique number my number at bank X would not be the same as my number at Health Club Y or SuperDuperBoxStore Z.

Sure you could scrub all that stuff and just exhaust hot air, but then you have got to deal with it in piles.
Don't play with reactors, right. got that.
O M G!
Fake nice for the purpose of making the later mean worse.
I had to look it up..

Now everyone knows you only have to rebuild the carburetor when you change the oil.
Not to defend either China or Iran..
But, are the numbers Amnesty International reported adjusted for population?
China executed 1,718, Iran 346.
The CIA gives China's 2008 population at 1,330,044,544
Also the CIA, Iran's population, in 2008 65,875,224
1718 / 1330044544 = 1.29168606 Ã-- 10 ^ -6 = 0.0000129% of population
346 / 65875224 = 5.25235406 Ã-- 10 ^ -6 = 0.0000523% of population
So taking population into account, Iran executes 5 times more than china?
I saw what you did there - "real world", Zombies. Award winning!
At one point it was not illegal to send spam to your fax machine.
yes but there are non-disclosure agreements for other things and they are enforceable.

Even Linux fanbois don't go so far as to claim that Windows is designed to crash.
Well until now anyway.

Why do you think "Task is easy to do" has anything to do with "The author and rights holder does not wish it done" ?
Just because a thing is easy to do does not mean one automatically has some right to do it.
Ape, Bat, Cat, Cow,Dog, Doe, Elk, Eel, Fox, Gnu
Hog, Hen,
Imp (ok it's not real...)
Kit (Baby fox?)
Mus (Latin for mouse)
Ram
Why not submarines, nautilus, skipjack...
There are places to buy laptops without OS or with Linux pre-installed.
When I bought my last car, I had them take out the stock radio and replace it with an aftermarket unit that I liked better
Cost of car = price of car - price of stock radio + shop fee for installing custom radio
