No, once again read your history. The blitz of LONDON a civilian city started in 41.
Yes you are making good points. Yes in the yearly part of the Blitz, Airfields where on top of the list, followed by other stratigic targets.
Hitler went "crazy" and wanted to break the Londoners spirit by bombing them into the stone age. This was in 1940-1941. All of this did happen before we fire bombed Germany, Before V-Weapons, before Pearl Harbor, (It was horrible).
But I am just sort of upset about your comment that the alies invented this, when it realy isn't true.
The pacific war start post 42. Germany was bombing London before that: 1940 - 1941. It was the BIG man Hitler, who realy started.....
Sadly, we just finished it....
It was common knowladge in Indiana where I am from

· Score: 3, Interesting
My father told me stories about these ballons when I was a kid, during WWII. The ballons where kind of a running joke at that time. At least that is how he made it sound. Apperently some did actual explode, but of course the NEVER hit anything.
There was no mention from him or any one else in the room about cencership. Which leads me to wonder was there REALY any goverment cover up? Or was it just not importent enought for any one to realy care, one way or the other.
There are many much more IMPORTANT things that where covered up. Like the U.S. army company whiped out by thier own troops durring a landing., anon, anon, anon
I live in Columbus, Ohio. To be Honist I don't know of ANY place that charges for WIFI. Mostly I got to Coffee houses, sometimes place in down town. I am not stupid and I have heard about places that charged, but I was shocked when I travelled. I went to Boca Raton.
EVERY place charged! The Hotel charged 10 bucks a day. Star bucks charged so much per minute. What a rip off. I wanted to talk with these people, that if just ONE coffee house stopped charging business would go up.
I for one don't feel to sorry for companies charging for this. The should have seen it comming.
Read the article:... when Ross' 9-inch-by-18-inch negatives are digitally scanned, the result is decidedly high-tech. Each image yields a 2.6-gigabyte file -- huge for a single image.
Its just a realy good big camera that takes a sharply focused picture.
Last report I read on oil reserves and predicted consumption, put the time at 75 years. Things could always change, if say China increases thier consumption.
Nice to have a link on the top page for old releases. To many times I have gone to the java.sun looking for some odd 1.1.4 or what ever to try and replicate some bug the user is having.
For the record I have worked on embedded systems for 6 years and PLC controlers. What we are talking about is the Extreem testing. When we worked on these things we always made sure that MAXIMUM memory usage was tested.
I Realy don't see why this is not on the list of things to test.
I do think they are doing a great job, considuring the amount of systems that are being controled and the added issues of radiation, cold, etc, etc.
From what I have read Spirits problem is ALL software. It sounds like this could have been tested by driving around in a parking lot and taking lots of pictures.
In the U.S. Constitution, as the Supreme Court found some time in the 60's. One could make the argument that infact it doesn't say that explicitly, I don't know how some one can honistly read the first 10 bill of rights, expecially the 5th amendment and not get some sense of a "Right to free will and privacy".

My dad was an English teacher. I got enough of this stuff at home. Can I please be at peace on this web site?
Wow, I came a long and F4.0 was realy cool... if then else.
But this was realy cool to read. I am sure most tick of the languages they have used.
So then you still believe that:
You're aware that Allied forces pioneered bombing civilian populations
Hu? I can accept that we where first in the pacific theater. But in general, Bombing of civilian populations, was not done by the allied side first.
Its just a strange statement and not accurate.

Actually of course I should say it started for the USA in 42. Japan was having all kinds of fun before that.
Actually come to think of it I am pretty sure that Japan bombed civilian targets in China, long before the Germans.
That is an accident. I wonder what I ment by "hit anything...." Hmmmm.....

Who cares about ballons?

I think passive snooping is the Bigest issue mozt people/companies are worried about. My company sad a big NO (Secure or not) to wireless.
If I had a network at home and making it secure slowed it down by 2 or 3 times, guess what..... No security!
A 50-100 ton lifter. The Russians where building one just before the collapse. To bad. We could have built something cool in orbit.
How do you like you Dino? Rare, Medium or Crispy?

Didn't they increase thier span? It would also be cool to expand/contract the cord.
After all, what will I have to talk about will hanging on a beutifull womans cube wall.

I have always been interested that recording a conversation with out any phone, computer, etc.., is quite legal. WITH OUT any concent.
Is it just me or is this hypocritical? Not that it is surprising that the law would be such
Is the law still working for he amount of power used? I understand that the newest chips do use more power, but shouldn't that be the approach.

I think current electro-lite batters have been maxed out. The possibility of Fuel cells is out there now but let me hold me breath....
*puuuuhhh* That didn't last
This was the first web page I ever read and fell off my chair. The "pro" web site is just as funny.
They clearly state you can copy the album on the two provided CD-r's. Nothing was stated about ripping.
