Why do you think that the term for unsolicited e-mail uses the "SPAM" name? BECAUSE NO ONE REALLY LIKES SPAM (both the canned meat product and the unsolicited e-mail) TO BEGIN WITH!!!!
BZZZT!!!!! And thank you for playing. Here's your lovely parting gift.
UBE is known as "spam" because of the Monty Python sketch, wherein a group of vikings kept singing the phrase "Spam", until it drowned out all other conversation, much as junk email does with your (unfiltered) inbox.
No, nobody, including the principals, knows what the SCO/IBM case is about. This, of course, is mainly due to SCO not telling the Court or IBM what they're complaining about, and changing their arguments every other week.
Well, for a start he could have NOT tied up a large chunk of our military in a country with NO NUCLEAR THREAT AT ALL.
Non sequiter. Has absolutely nothing to do with his handling of Korea.
Or he could have offered them other economic incentives to back off on the nuclear power, instead of threating them.
Because that worked so well when the Clinton Administration did it. Again, in Iraq, Bush was urged to let sanctions work. Here he did exactly that, and guess what, he's attacked for it.
For as rich of a country the US is, we give out very little monetary humanitarian aid to other countries. This is part of the reason other countries of the world don't have the same rosy outlook of the US as Bush/Rummy do...
Non sequiter. Again, I state, with NK, Bush did exactly what his critics say he should have done in Iraq.
Hell even in his own country 2/3 of the people think Bush is not doing the right things. (And Rummy has a 30% approcval rating - I'd like to meet the 30% who think he is making the right decisions about Iraq. Probably the same people who thought we found WMDs there too.)
Non sequiter. You think he made the wrong decision about Iraq. Fine. He did exactly what you wanted with NK.
I dislike Bush as much as the next guy, and believe he should be impeached (not for the Iraq war, but for violations of his oath to uphold and defend the Constitution), but in this case, zxnos is right.
With NK, Bush did everything that his opponents claim he should have done in Iraq. He didn't invade, he tried to let sanctions work, he worked with other countries. In particular the US has no direct influence over NK, they're a client of China. Bush tried to get China to deal with it.
Exactly. Legalize them, regulate them, and tax the hell out of them.
1. Decreased costs to the justice system [many fewer prosecutions of illegal drugs] 2. Decreased crime [ancillary crimes related to the obtaining of illegal drugs] 3. Decreased costs for the penal system [much smaller jail population] 4. Increased government revenue [taxes on drugs] 5. Decreased tax burden on the rest of us as a result of 1-4 [OK, I give. Like that would ever happen]
About 3 years ago, I replaced a Maxtor under warranty. The replacement died after four months. When I RMA'ed that one, the Maxtor customer service rep asked if I wanted him to specify new rather than refurb. Needless to say, my answer was yes.

Or alternatively, because I have a printer available from my desktop machine, and can print out the directions on dead trees for later!
Yeah, but is FireSomething on the list?
Right now, I'm browsing this with Mozilla Websheep (or at least, that's what the titlebar says).
For some reason, it's on the Privacy tab. At least, it's there in my copy of 1.5.0.7.
One of IBM's counterclaims (I think either the 6th or the 9th... but I can't remember exactly) is also a Lanham Act claim.
How about Administratium?
You: Ha! My RAID system can handle hardware failures!
Luser: Dude, uh.... um.... I think I umm.... accidentally deleted the database.
You: Doh!
Jupiter has a zit!!!!

That's the story with Spam®. Nobody will admit eating it, but somebody is out there buying over 2,000 cans a day in Alaska.
Darn! I knew I shouldn't have used my supermarket club card when buying all that SPAM®!!! Now they know it's me.
I'd argue that Stroustrup was more influenced by Simula-67 than by Smalltalk.
However, NK is China's client state, not the USA's.

What would you guys have had him do? Invade?
Thou shalt not count 4, nor 2, excepting that thou then proceedest onto three. Five is right out.

No, no, no. You've got it wrong.

I've Hurd that one before.
My count is 537 (you forgot the Executive Branch).
Nothing for you to see here. Move along.

Damn. I'm an idiot. I was thinking joules, not watts. Call it a senior moment :(
Your units are messed up.
The units are Newton-seconds, not Newtons.
