  1. Re:questions have been raised on Michael Moore Seeks TV Airing of Fahrenheit 9/11 · · Score: 5, Insightful

    People always talked about all these mysterious votes that were not counted. What about the fact that the media declared Gore the winner before all the polls in Florida had closed. Remember that Florida is in two time zones. And the panhandle is heavily Republican. And guess what, there was a very low voter turnout in the panhandle because they thought that Gore had already won in Florida.

  2. Re:User Opinion of Mimio - Great! on "Smart Board" To Replace White Boards? · · Score: 1

    Granted, we used an older unit, but our Mimio was nothing more than a toy. You had to draw and erase pretty slowly to get all the capture. no thin pens. and no OCR.

  3. Re:Yeah, but on HTTP's Days Numbered · · Score: 2, Informative

    Well, not to comment on .NET, but SOAP can really be used over almost any transport, HTTP just being the most popular.

  4. Re:more ads i'll never get to see... sigh. on Super Bowl Commercial Skewer-a-thon · · Score: 2, Funny

    I was really amused to watch a NFL playoff game while skiing in Mont-Tremblant, Quebec. they superimposed canadian company logos all over the American stadiums. I didn't know that Canadian Tire advertises so extensively at Soldiers Field.

  5. copyright infringement? on Where Does Microsoft Want You to Go Today? · · Score: 2

    It seems like this is a copyright infringement. Microsoft is taking something they do not own, and exploiting it for commercial processes.

    Also, newspaper editors and such take great care to make sure that what they print is accurate. If an accurate story suddenly has links to inaccurate information, who is at fault?
