I dont care if they force backdoors because if they do they are just shoooting themselves in the foot and they get to see what an ass they were now. And this can never last, backdoors are just a plain and simple stupid idea. Fine, Mr Ashcroft, go and stand on your pedistool. I'll laugh when you fall down.
We bring up yeast and whatnot all the way up there to do an experiment that is essentially the same as doing the experiment in my garage, only more legal, and hellishly more expensive. Would you expect less? This is neat but it also pisses away money (and credibility) that NASA sorely needs.
no really. Not only is it plain stupid, but if you are not familiar with the muslim culture there is a saying that only Allah has infinite wisdom, only Allah has INFINATE JUSTICE. Use your imagination and think about if the naming here was a great idea.
I know that this could be pretty serious news, because unfortunately most people easily get swayed by anything they read (which sometimes consists only of finding waldo), but i find it that it is just a lighthearted hacker with power that he doesnt want to waste. Still, this shows that news stories are compromisable, (at last some are) and this could potentially become a more serious matter if this was raised to a scale of 5 billion.
HOLY FRUCK
I do agree with this quote up to a point but for gods sakes there is only so many times i can read this before it doesnt mean anything anymore and i pull out my hair one by one. PLEAAAASSSEEEE!!! WE GET IT ALREADY!
I am not sure if this was posted on./ yet, but i read this exellent peice of satire on www.adequacy.org. (and no, of course its not the opinions of the website itself, just a post)

Of course the World Trade Center bombings are a uniquely tragic event, and it is vital that we never lose sight of the human tragedy involved. However, we must also consider if this is not also a lesson to us all; a lesson that my political views are correct. Although what is done can never be undone, the fact remains that if the world were organised according to my political views, this tragedy would never have happened.
Many people will use this terrible tragedy as an excuse to put through a political agenda other than my own. This tawdry abuse of human suffering for political gain sickens me to the core of my being. Those people who have different political views from me ought to be ashamed of themselves for thinking of cheap partisan point-scoring at a time like this. In any case, what this tragedy really shows us is that, so far from putting into practice political views other than my own, it is precisely my political agenda which ought to be advanced.
Not only are my political views vindicated by this terrible tragedy, but also the status of my profession. Furthermore, it is only in the context of a national and international tragedy like this that we are reminded of the very special status of my hobby, and its particular claim to legislative protection. My religious and spiritual views also have much to teach us about the appropriate reaction to these truly terrible events.
Countries which I like seem to never suffer such tragedies, while countries which, for one reason or another, I dislike, suffer them all the time. The one common factor which seems to explain this has to do with my political views, and it suggests that my political views should be implemented as a matter of urgency, even though they are, as a matter of fact, not implemented in the countries which I like.
Of course the World Trade Center attacks are a uniquely tragic event, and it is vital that we never lose sight of the human tragedy involved. But we must also not lose sight of the fact that I am right on every significant moral and political issue, and everybody ought to agree with me. Please, I ask you as fellow human beings, vote for the political party which I support, and ask your legislators to support policies endorsed by me, as a matter of urgency.

"They" is surely a huge brushstroke. Its nice of you to note that they all think alike, or I might have thought that there were many different individuals like the rest of the world.
You point your finger at the moon, the fool stares at your finger.
/. was great. Expecially with the people keeping it online, but all of the intelligent conversations that transpired in the last few days as well../, along with abc and bbc for non techie stuff are now where I will get my news.
Although sadly a lot in this article is true, it does not touch the fact that, even though our forign policy is really screwed up, it is in no way a justification of what happened in new york. I have been against our self serving forign policy for a while now,the fact that our own CIA supported Bin Laden, as well Iraq and Saddam before we decided Kuwait had more oil, is reprehensable. If i were an ally of the US I might even start to wonder why it is that at least two of our worlds greatest terrorists were once supported by the US, and I am greatful for them holding off, because this is obviously not the time. Firstly we need to hunt down the perps this _UNEXCUSABLE_ act, then find the roots of why there are so many around the world who hate our guts. I only hope that we realize that, although the majority of hate stems from us being the top dog, it is not the only reason. I only hope we can open our minds to others plights before it is too late again and other unexcusable acts our done (secondarily, mind you) because of our blind eye towards forign suffering caused by our forign policy. Please help GWB know what you think, even if it is not my view, because he will need all the direction he can get. (AKA I think hs is pretty stupid, expecially when confronted by forign issues.)
Again i wish only the best for the victims and missing.

My tax dollars are paying for WHAT???
OK I can't spell. Sue me.
Sorry! I can't spell. But I am in college so I have an excuse.

Who is the turd who came out with the name operation INFINATE JUSTICE?

//That works fine, until the pilot and copilot suddenly die of a heart attack and noone on board is able to save the plane.//
The pilot AND the copilot? Wow they must really be digging into the twinkies.
But yes, it is a vald point.

I think it was sideshow bob. Mel was the placid replacement.
God no, not CNN. That will only bring more massive hatred to western civ.
