What are you talking about? I fly Air France all the time and it is one of the best out there. Food is still free and quite good by airline standards, checked bags don't cost extra, and I never missed a connection because of them. I would pick them any time over Delta or American. Now, those are some nightmarish airlines, with some very rude crews.
Also, when in England, if you ask someone for directions, keep in mind that, no matter how official they look, they will always give you two pieces of information, one of which is wrong.
That was exactly my reaction. I thought they were dispatching an actual general to Somalia. But I guess oil-tank-jacking is not as big a problem as counterfeit Jonas brothers CDs.
Thanks buddy, but that how it works in theory. In practice, it is a little more complicated. This transaction I am contesting is a one time purchase of $108 at a brick-and-mortar store in Illinois (I don't live in Illinois). Chase's position from the beginning has been "can you prove you were not in Illinois that day?" which, unfortunately for me, I cannot. So, what exactly would you do? Spend $5000 on a lawyer to resolve a $108 dispute?
Care to suggest how they differentiate between the thousands of applicants with both grades and standardized testing scores smashed up against the limits of the scales?
$50 doctor visit? Was that a witch doctor? My last doctor visit, a 10 minute cursory visual examination by a sports medicine doctor, cost $687. And I pay $450/month for my insurance. So I have to call bull on your story.
I'm easily paying 45%+ in taxes annually. (last one is guestimate)
And a very poor one, I would say. I live in Taxachussetts and even with all those taxes added in I am not even close to 45%. By the way, they have sales tax in Europe too (it's called VAT over there) and I did not include it in my comparison either, so it was a fair comparison.
No, we should not. I pay about 25% in taxes in the US. I know nobody in Western Europe who pays 45+% tax on a similar income. The highest figure is usually in the lower 30s. So expect an extra 5-7% in taxes.
Nope. The US government is free to sue him in the UK. They have a legal system there too. Criticizing the Chinese government might be illegal in China, but you would not want the US extraditing you to China to face prosecution fro that now, would you? Why should this guy be treated differently.
If the card customers are bearing the full cost of the additional lines, is it really a bribe?
I don't know, would it be a bribe if someone was bearing the full cost of a separate, shorter queue for organ transplants? I'm inclined to say yes. And I don't see how this is different.
Yes it does. What is it with all these monstrosities coming out of Wasilla lately? Is the pollution that bad over there? I say we pitch them against each other and see who wins?

As opposed to what? Your paternal twin?

Have you ever tried to contest a fraudulent charge? I have. It's been 18 months since my first letter to Chase and we are still fighting over it.
and go where, exactly?
Is this a newer, more sophisticated kind of troll, or a genuine intellectual deficiency?
Yup. 64 bits should be enough for everyone.
Care to suggest how they differentiate between the thousands of applicants with both grades and standardized testing scores smashed up against the limits of the scales?
Yes. Make the tests more difficult
I see no mention of Leonardo holding any patents on that page. And Archimedes was not from Sybaris, so what was your point again?
Yes, software patents shouldn't be there. Patents are there to stop people from sitting on their ideas
Patents in general should not be there. Leonardo da Vinci and Archimedes did not "sit on their ideas, and they did not have patents to protect them.
You shouldn't need "permission" to travel freely either IRL or online.
Next time someone asks for your passport, tell them that.
This is my employer based plan (BlueCross BlueShield Prefered Care PPO)

Then they should expect lawsuits from lawyers, doctors and all other sorts of season ticket holders who have to be on call 24/7.

That might work for you, but many people receive legit emails in more than one language.
Yep, we'll get that extra 20+% taxation
No, we should not. I pay about 25% in taxes in the US. I know nobody in Western Europe who pays 45+% tax on a similar income. The highest figure is usually in the lower 30s. So expect an extra 5-7% in taxes.
Yes, they have. Every time you hand them the passport and they place it on the desk next to their computer, they are using a RFID scanner.
Nope. The US government is free to sue him in the UK. They have a legal system there too. Criticizing the Chinese government might be illegal in China, but you would not want the US extraditing you to China to face prosecution fro that now, would you? Why should this guy be treated differently.
Finally. It was about time someone made tropical weather as stable as Vista.

This seems really familiar.

Given the way Microsoft behaves, it's probably gonna be Bada Bing!
