I remem+ber someone who got fired for talking about the "Her name rhymes with a female body part" episisode, got fired and successfully sued for wrongful dismissal.
This is quite incorrect. If it effects a "person's employment", it can be considered harrassment (see link below).
Also "It is helpful for the victim to directly inform the harasser that the conduct is unwelcome and must stop. The victim should use any employer complaint mechanism or grievance system available.
" .
Note "It is helpful" , not "It is required".

As a Java programmer, I wanted to see where Search King ranked the ultimatate java site - java.sun.com; I mean any site for java must have this near or at the top. Entered "java" , and gave up looking trhough the listings at #60 or so.
Google ranks, and correctly IHO, java.sun.com as #1 for the search "java".
And imagine a paleontologist uncovering a chihuahua fossil, a chow fossil, and a great dane fossil in a thousand years (fossilization actually doesn't have to take very long). They would very likely assign them to different species, probably different genera. Based on current practice, they might also show them as a progression in the family tree of canids.
I don't believe so, because, despite the size differences, they are structurally the same.
There are several problems with it, most notably that one of the "earliest" forms is now known to be alive and well in Turkey (the Hyrax). Or take the Coelocanth - it's still an index fossil for something like 70 million years ago, but you can go catch one in the Indian ocean if you want to today.
And why is this a problem ? ToE does not require ancestral forms to be extinct.
By the way, Dawkins also wrote an earlier book called The Selfish Gene. I haven't read it, but I know that his central theses is that we are just complicated mechanisms to propogate our genes. That's all he thinks we are. I kid you not. Think about that good and hard, and if you don't come to the conclusion that this guy is deeply disturbed, then I think you are.
Why ? Is it that otherwise your self image suffers ? Not a scientific argument, nes pas?
The post office is not subsidized. By Federal law, it is an independent agency which is responsible for it's own bottom line. It may, in emergency situations, get money to meet shortfalls, as due the airlines. However, this "grant" does not allow me to board an airline and fly for free.
Anyway, the argument is specious in any case , as the USPS does not use uncompensated private carriers. And how well would direct marketing snail mail work if it came postage due ?
You could not be more wrong. If you are going to count the cost of receiving the mail, you should also count the cost of your electric bill to turn on the tv, and also if it's a paid cable channel, the cost of the subscription. Ads are free, period. Because they use your existing paid services to deliver them.
True. But I don't watch tv to watch the ads. It's the stuff between the ads IU watch. The ads (which I may not like )I tolerate because they pay for the entertaiment provided (which I do like). I am willing to waste my time with the ads, and pay the power bill because the value added (entertainment) is worth it.
How successful do you think TV would be if *all* they transmitted was ads, or if anyone could inject an ad into your feed without compensating the broadcaster ?
Spam will be equivalent to TV ads when there is compenstation for the "broadcasters" (the relays) and the spam provides exra value to the "viewer" (the recipient).
What BS ?
How is the non ISP members of the relay compensated by the spammer ? Are you saying that voluntarally download spam because it comes down with the mail that I am interested in.
Give me your home address, as by analogy I am welcome to walk into your house simply because you open the door for others.

Don't click - the link is booby trapped!!!!!
And the damaged party in this case is the owner of the beach - IOW - the public through the State of Callifornia.
In much the same way as you seem to be "incapable of understanding the reasons for rules" .

Tim, you are so ignorant of scientific and legal realities that I'd be laughing if I weren't crying over the ignorance of folks like you.
Reporting a *crime* is terrorism ?

You'd be paying a higher bill absent the ads.
