I use shaw cable in Canada, and they advertise 'unlimited usage'.
And I download alot of stuff from the net, so twice I've been called by the customer service (service, yeah right).
Guy: sir, did you know you network usage is above normal?
Me: what is above normal?
Guy: well your package do have a quota of 50G per month.
Me: Don't I have unlimited usage as you advertised?
Guy: No sir, by that we meant you are connected all the time and can use it whenever you want to.
Me: oooh... well I'm switching services unless you stop harrasing me.
Never got called again.

I know, what are all these other stuff besides the free porn I was promised?
Most of the eople don't seem to understand what the Matrix trilogy is all about, it has far deeper meanings than just the average kung-fu, sci-fi flicks.
I hope I don't confuse anyone with this, but I just want people to know how much more sophisticated the Matrix is than you think.
There's an essay written in Chinese about the Matrix, it has many very facsinating ideas and views. I only translated a small portion of it.
Let's see how interestingly and artfully the character are named:
Neo: Son of the God in this movie, if you re-arrange the letters, you'll get one - "The One" as was said in the movie.
Morpheus: The god of dreams in Greek and Roman tales. He brings dreams to the human kind, he represents "the spirit of god" in this movie.
Trinity: The three in one, connecting everything altogether. She represents the "father of god", because she gave life to Neo; Neo only starts to realize he's the one after he met Trinity.
Oracle: Of course the prophecy. In the religion of Greek, she's responsible for passing the anwsers from Gods to people. You can think of her as the guidence for human, she hopes to achieve a balance between the mahcines and huam; as opposed to the idea of one ruling another. And she was only a program of the matrix, but one that differs in purpose from thhose of Ggent Smith and the Architect. She wasn't designed initially to help humans, but she eventually found out that only the huamns can save the machines.
Merovingian: The french dude in the restaurant in Matrix II. His name was based on a kingdom in France called Merovech. He existed since the first matrix, he believes in subjugation. That is why he likes to fight and the oracle likes to give out candies.

This is great news for any loyal legitimate D2 gamers. Being one myself, it's very frustrating dealing with all the dupe/hack/bot activities going on on BattleNet.
After 4 or 5 yeras of release, DiabloII can still climb up to the top TEN game sale per week. That shows how good the game is. And Blizzard is still releasing patches after patches showing that they do still care about us gamers fans.

"Real" cup holders??
So that's why it's so cold in the north pole.
You must be from RIAA or the Bush Administration to think they actually have a plan.

Just out of curiosity, what did you use when debugging this program?
