The work required to send an email should be exactly that; you type it and push Send, that's quite enough.
You bring up an interesting point. But I would like to point out that sense the inceptions of email the quality of communication has decreased significantly. One talk radio host even shut down her email and limited non-phone correspondence to fax's. Immediately the quality of correspondence with her fans increased dramatically.
You really do have an offensive view of the world, don't you know?
That's his right as well as anyone else's.
Without thought for people's modes of operation or needs, you tar everyone a baddie until they take the trouble to prove otherwise.
I don't have to have email. I don't have to provide any forum for anyone to communicate with me and if I want to hamstring easy entry to my email to make people reconsider sending me jokes every day or information on enlarging my genitals then I darn well will.
You *are* going to get some false-positives this way.
Back in bout '97 I got a Gyro-mouse. I figured that it would be like having my hand inside the quake guys head. After about 6 months using the thing I achieved demigod status on Team Fortress server.
The thing that made the gyro mouse superior to almost all more recent electro gyro scope mouse offerings was its egg shape and orientation of the gyroscope. You would hold it sideways in a more natural position and click a button ( now on the bottom ) that would cause the mouse respond. I've tried more recent options and they are less then adiquate for quake with the way you hold the mouse in the air.
Now I must admit that I've switched to an optical mouse for my quaking needs. The gyro is not good enough for RTSs even using it like a regular mouse( It had a ball built in). I would for a time shut down my computer and switch mice. After 98 came out and I picked up a USB optical mouse I tried to use both mice at the same time but 98 didn't like that very much and the reliability of the PS2 device woudl be spotty at best. I eventually gave up.
With the advent of quake3 and the need to be acurate in all these Realism based mods I had to give it up as I couldn't rail quite good enough to be at the level I wanted. Of course the 2 year hiatus I took from videogames and computers may have hurt my steady hand quite a bit.

No I will not.

The earth is already wobbling like a top that can't stand straight any more. Appearently it's suppoed to cycle every 26,000 years or so. This is supposed to account for Ice ages.

were going to see a mydrid of posts condeming this as entrapment. No one forces these people to commit these crimes. So what have we to fear?
