On top of the energy savings the motor runs cool to the touch and is significantly quieter than a tradtitionally powered fan. Sound to good to be true? Well he's already started selling the fan to a chain of convience stores in Japan.
I was on a jury for traffic court. The accused defended herself with "If I'd have been going that fast he would have pulled me over sooner for being a menace."
OT::Your sig: My father works in a funeral home. One day he was assisting an elderly gentleman who was making preparations for his eventual demise. The man, waxing philosophical, uttered the following mind-blowing sentence.
As Robert Louis Stevenson said in The Raven, do not send to know for whom the bell tolls.
160 tons is not fucking *huge* It's a lot, yeah, but I used to work on a towboat that pushed 25 barges capable of carrying 1,500 tons *each*
That's 37,500 tons of cargo *That's* fucking huge
Now, I understand that you mean the aircraft is huge, not the capacity, but 160 tons still works out to the approximate capacity of a Lockheed Martin C-5 Galaxy
So the guy you shoot stops doing things that get people shot Right Fucking Now. Amazingly, shotguns don't spray a random fan of death. It's actually possible to learn the pattern and know what it will be at various useful distances.
Oh holy God I hate EDI. I work for a company that audits and pays freight bills, so we get "EDI" transmissions from around 50 different carriers. Each of them has a slightly different belief in what constitutes a valid file, and that belief is subject to change without notice or reason. For example, there's a field that can have one of 18 values (50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 77.5, 85, 92.5, 100, 110, 125, 150, 175, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500). Naturally I get values like "070" (ok, that's easy to handle) and "F" (wtf?). Standards are great, I guess. I can't wait to use one some day.

But do you see how your argument doesn't specify a point of view? You are against something, not for something - you never name a trait you support or disdain, you merely acknowledge that people can be sorted. Imagine your positive traits are negative. Your arguments still apply. Now do you understand how vacant your position is?

Perhaps your parents should have stopped breeding rather than bring yet another asshole into this world.

Did the summary get slashdotted, too?

Thanks for the sig.
(Tried to link back to give credit but the char limit wouldn't let me)
I do exactly that with transportation contracts.
Easy and profitable.
Especially when you can take a percent of savings as the fee...

What could I do? Nothing... Why? 1) I'm a UNIX engineer

Is anything good for you anymore?
Giving head.
It depends on how long you were employed and how long ago that was.
There'll be another bubble soon.

Although, that person does now work for Microsoft
So he's smarter than you?
- You also need a license to own a gun.
This is true in some US jurisdictions, but not most.
Grease me up, woman.

So it's always 12:00 in your world?
Really?
How much less?
