Seems to me that all this service does is facilitate communication between people who want to car pool. Doesn't Canada have a "charter of rights" to protect free speech?
In Vegas at least, they're regulated like crazy. They have to tell you the odds of any game they offer, and the gaming commission spot-checks them all the time.
I remember a story a couple years ago of some woman who embezzled over a million from the company she worked for, and sent it to a 419 scammer. She's doing time.
I know you're frustrated that nobody pays attention to you in real life, but trolling/. is very poor substitute for social interaction. Try to work it out in therapy.
You're a dyed in the wool cynic of Microsoft and proponent of OSS and that's what makes me love reading your posts.
Thanks, but I don't consider myself a dyed-in-the-wool proponent of OSS. I use open-source software and I've given code away from time to time, but I take a strictly utilitarian approach to it.
Forcing doctors to perform procedures on black people against the will of the doctor is slavery.
Forcing doctors to perform procedures on anyone against their will is slavery. Forced labor isn't justified merely because you disagree with the laborer's criteria for choosing what labor he is or is not willing to perform.
they update all the eye candy first to get the drooling masses interested
Frankly, I don't believe the drooling masses exist. The only people I see pretending to be drooling over MS's second-rate eye candy are the pundits that they're bribing with cash and free equipment, and they really don't sound convincing.
nobody should need to give an excuse (such as conflict with religion or conscience) to avoid litigation for refusing services.
I concur. This only arises as a public policy issue, because the government is already interfering our choices w/r/t drugs. If all medications were over-the-counter as they should be, this would be a non-issue.
I'm curious. Is pouring out sarcasm on someone asking a question a typical mode of conversation for you? How does this behavior work out in your personal relationships?
One thing I've been wondering about is whether it would be possible to fight infection just by making a protein that binds to CCR5 and does nothing else. I'm presuming that HIV can't attach to the receptor if there's something in the way.
Would any molecular biologist reading this please tell me if this works or not?

most 'trash' is going to be hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen.
Don't forget the Nitrogen.
Conventional incinerators tend to create nitrates as a byproduct. Hopefully this extremely high temperature will avoid that problem.

No, should I?
Maybe Ubuntu has drooling fans, but I was referring to the alleged drooling masses that care about what Microsoft does.
