Where Jerry tells George about "the move" whence George starts using it without success.
I believe it's the same episode where Jerry sees a street vendor hawking umbrellas, using his 'patented' umbrella-twirl to sell them. Jerry then attempts to make them stop.
"When he found himself with a homework assignment he did not understand, and no teaching assistants or professors available on a campus off-week, he convinced himself that just chatting with another student would not violate the rules"
Technically it can't be called blank media if they put one short sound clip extolling "Your brand-new Nomad blah blah blah, go everywhere with music you have never gone before, blah blah blah"
Then you can let the tarrif be a bygone. I know it doesn't work in the long run (because they probaly will then rewrite the law to close that loophole) and also because it doesn't address the tarrif for CD-R/W discs.
But mostly, you guys over that imaginary line called "border" have my fullest sympathy, and encourage you guys to do what you can before this rediculous-ness catches on here in the good ol' US of RIAA.

Here's something else I picked up- her first movie listed there is named "Instant Karma". Should make an intresting study to excessive/.ers.
Telemarketers are notorious for taking advantage of elderly people, because as a general rule they are more easily intimidated into making purchases they really do not want.
More so if they are senile or just bordering on it, they can really be taken for all their worth and more.
Pretty unscruplous and low for the average person, but not for telemarketers. Ohhh, and electronic salesmen. So I can understand the logic behind the law, because this will intimidate the telemarketer to be more careful, and not so wily afterall.
The RIAA can point their legal guns at probaly every corporation in America. Is this just a publicity stunt to make an example of one company, or is it going to be their new business model ala' Xerox?
Its only a matter of minutes before CNN realizes that they should have blocked the/. - referring links to their article!

Senator Slash Dot (R. -Cubicle) proposed the Consumers Don't Want Your Shitty Broadband Anyways Act (CDWYSBAA)yesterday in congress. The vote split along partisan lines as Sen. Mickey Mouse, Sen. Donald Duck and Sen. Bugs Bunny (D. -Disney, TW) launched a vehement attack against it, calling it "Unpatriotic" and "Communistic" and mostly unfair to the multi-trillion dollar media companies, which never had to empower the consumer, other than taking a "Tariff" from his paycheck.
Why should they? Do phone companies/long-distance providers let you know how many minutes you used so far that month?
Paah! You could only wish it was so. So why do you demand metered-ISPs should do so too?

Local woman sues scale-maker for discrepencies regarding her wieght. Claimants say that the scale is intentionally misconstruing actual wieght by use of a spinning disk, consisting of an unspecified superconducting material. Defendents neither confirmed or denied the allegations, as they claim the superconducting materials in question, are currently undergoing a patent application and do not wish to disclose information for fear of competitors stealing the idea.
The article states "The Podkletnov effect suggests it may be possible to effectively reduce the mass of the ship, thereby reducing the overall energy needed for acceleration."
Now as every semi-educated idiot knows, Mass and Weight are two different measures. Mass is an immutable constant, while weight is strictly based on the strength of the gravational field.
In other words wieght can vary, but mass will never.

Just last week I commented to my dad about how there must have been a major bust of pirated DVDs in the Bronx. Being that I'm a traveling salesman, and everyday I'm traveling from one side of the Bronx to the other, I noticed that the DVD hawkers don't "carry" them in stock any more. From Fordham Road, East Tremont Ave, Jerome Ave, Kingsbridge Ave, Southern Blvd, Westchester Ave and a few other hotspots they just blinked out of site. One day I went to meet a couple of distributors in the commercial neighborhood-less area called Hunts Point, and there they were, the piraters themselves, with cajas y cajas del los DVDs. Of course I stocked up, but that was 3 weeks ago. I havent seen them since.
Originally it was close to 15mb, but after shutting down rooms such as "server", "mm", "cerver" (sic) and a few others which I cant remember now, they made the attachment limit 6mb. At the same time they changed the email time limit to 30 days for unopened messages, and 7 days for read emails.
The famous warez groups such as Arise Warez, Legion, Razor 1911, etc then started releasing their warez in the 6mb size. Then you couldn't get those massmails because you had a message cap on message count. I think thats when I ditched AOL for my pirating needs.
u remember the FateX4 software by Magus and Fungi (or something like that?) Those were definetly the days, when people had those mm's "Type "<`-=-\xXxsNaKeRuLeZxXx/-=-`>" to get onto the MM" /indras Send 1 /indras Send 2 /indras Send 3 etc....
