    This is exactly true in most of the NE. It simply is not possible to always keep a safe distance from the car in front of you. The moment you do someone will get over in front of you (Most often without use of a blinker) and stay there closing your gap.

    I challenge anyone to try and drive this way without going insane, it does feel if you are constantly moving backwards.

  7. Re:Just seems to clean cut on Muslim Groups Attempt to Censor Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    Its not obvious to me that god doesn't exist, thats why I'm agnostic. I just don't believe in using religion to decide your course of action, for example to be good or bad. Or, don't be bad or your going to hell.

    Consider the following aspiration: To relase myself from harm, and to free all others from suffering, let me give myself away and love others as I love myself.

    It's not obvious to me that this is the goal that everyone would like, religious or not.

    Just like everyone else in the world, I have questions that there are no answerers for.

    <q>The benchmark for religious "success" could be: kindness, wisdom, open mindedness, trust in oneself, genuineness and selflessness. These qualities embody the divine within, but if you don't like that term, then think of it as basic human nature. Our nature when we're not confused, frightened or bewildered. </q>

    Shouldn't that be the benchmark for personal "success"?  I don't see how any of those virtues has to do with religion.  In fact if you can do this without help from a belief in a false god then aren't you better off?

    Jeremy has already stated on Top Gear that he doesn't mind a electric car at all. As long as it is fast, handles good and is well built he doesn't care.

    I was at Target over the weekend buying a few of those transparent plastic bins. There was a warning picture that showed a baby in the bin with a line through it. That picture pretty much sums up the world we live in.

  16. Re:Battery life on Caller ID Watches · · Score: 1

    Regarding watches only.

    Whether or not having an expensive watch ads any value to you, in a lot of circumstances having a nice (expensive) watch does tell a message to others. Sometimes having an expensive watch can get you better service than a cheap watch. Not that I like the material world we live in, thats just way things work.

    Those costs should be built into the up-front cost to build the garage. The only monthly payment should be for support & maintenance. If the garage is built well and doesn't need modification then why do they need to pay a monthly fee?

    Do you pay a montly fee for your computer after you bought it from best buy? (not including internet).

    iTunes is the #1 online music store. The "obsolete business model" argument is, well, obsolete.

    And look at what the record companies are trying to do... control the retail price and threaten this new business model by pulling out.
