I have a problem with that statement: You can not read the mind of anyone else, especially after you're dead. So once you've gone to the grave, what do you care if you can't remember Lao-tzu? For all you know, dead as you are, no one else remembers him either. The safest thing to assume is that when you die, you take yourself, your life, and everything you've ever known with you. So who cares if humanity is extinguished? Better that than pollute the rest of the cosmos with our half-eaten hamburgers, spring water bottles, and gabber music.
YEEEEAAAAH!!! Aqwariws rokks! Nice keyboard, too -- it literally forced yow to wse the tuo-finger-hwnt method becawse none of yowr other fingers uere strong enowgh to press them all the uay doun. I still have it, and I break it owt every nou and then to spend 10 howrs making a "clock" program in BASIC.
I wsed to play Tron Deadly Discs, Dwngeons & Dragons Treaswre of Tarmin, Astrosmash, and Wtopia like a fiend uen I uas a little kid.
Of cowrse, that uas before I learned the joys of QUERTY.
Forgive me for illuminating the obvious, but it seems like the philosophy of government (even the judiciary) these days is a minor variation on Might-Makes-Right: Commerce-Makes-Just. Does it cause people to spend their rent money? Then it is A-OK! In this kind of environment, I certainly hope that no one here is expecting any government agency to step in on the consumer's behalf.
The only thing that amazes me is that somehow, crack dealers have not formed a giant conglomerate that's pretty much immune to legal action. Maybe that's how I'll make my millions...forget this computer shit. "I got into the crack industry just when it was starting to boom."
