In the article, the author says he only found one person who bought an Apple computer due to his positive experience with the iPod... well, honestly, I bought my Power Mac G5 because my iPod opened up my eyes to Apple's engineering and such.
As someone who spent a great many years living in Louisiana and following/participating in Louisiana politics, I know for a fact that the officials of the "great state of Louisiana" are quite incompetent. After all, we have the 2nd worst roads in the nation and the 2nd worst education system in the nation (thank god for Mississippi!).
While I don't support Geraldo, he was not fired like Peter Arnett. Geraldo was temporarily kicked out of the action, but returned shortly after the military determined nobody could possibly make any sense out of what he wrote in the sand.
It has been my experience that older computer users (such as my mom & dad, who are in their 50s) do not like installing automatic updates from Microsoft (keep in mind, the update was labeled as critical so it was delivered automatically) because they believe it'll mess up their system. I believe this, and lazy sysadmins, are the reasons why worms like this propagate so quickly.
Cruz Bustamante (sp?) had the opportunity to become Governor as the Lt. Governor. From what I understand, under the California constitution, he had the option to take Davis' place if he was recalled. But, seeing as how most political analysts called it suicide and how the democrats were behind Gray Davis at the time, he decided to allow the election (part 2 of the recall ballot) take place. I'm no lawyer, though.
Uh... no. There is nothing in the constitution that limits the power of Congress to restrict the immigration of persons. Just because John Adams said that if you're here, you're a citizen doesn't mean its law. Times change, and when the great immigration of the 1900s began, we had to start limiting immigration.
Unfortantely for you, the Taliban and Mujahiddin are two seperate groups. While the Mujahiddin may have included Taliban members, it was the Taliban that ousted the government made up of Mujahiddin fighters in 1995. Sorry. No cookie for you.
Actually, if you know your history, it wasn't the Taliban that emerged out of the CIA-backed resistance. Afghanistan stood on its own for a few years after the Soviets were expelled... but a civil war broke out in 1990, I believe. The Taliban didn't emerge until 1995!!
Unlike Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, etc., the Taliban knowingly harbored and supported terrorists. When we told them to hand over Osama bin Laden, they flat out refused. The Taliban regime knowingly (key word) supported al-Qaeda. Now, some can say the same about Saudi Arabia, but the Saudis aren't publically defying us (they claim they're fighting terrorists, etc, and they're handing suspects over to us)... although, this doesn't necessarily mean the Saudis aren't our enemies (I, personally, believe they should be considered an enemy of the United States).
I have a hard enough time getting a built-to-order hamburger the way I want it... what makes me think that I won't have the same trouble with a car???;-)
Didn't Michael Jackson just say he was against the RIAA filing these lawsuits? Seems like the RIAA isn't listening to him, 'cause 8 songs of his are on the list...
They sure as hell care about the artists, don't they?
OK, I'll admit - I bought a CD off of buymusic.com (specifically "Gutterflower" by the Goo Goo Dolls) and downloaded the protected WMA files. Most licenses on BuyMusic.com allow you to burn the music to an audio CD a few times (mine allowed for up to 3 burns). So, I burned the album to a standard Audio CD... and then I figured, well, lets try ripping them in CDex and making them MP3s. Worked perfectly - no distortion or loss in sound quality. Time to share these bitches on Kazaa.:-P
Don't we already have this? I mean, the Knight Industries Two Thousand was programmed to save human life and be ethical and crap.... oh wait, that was a crappy 80s TV show.
The democrats were in control of the House the entire time Reagan was in office, while the dems were in control of the Senate for the last two years. Considering that the Congress has more control over the budget than the President, I'd say you're mistaken on who put this country in debt. It was those "fiscally responsible" (sarcasm) Democrats.
Consider this - when Jimmy Carter, probably one of our worst presidents of all time & the president before Reagan, was in office, my parents got a mortgage at nearly 15%. When my parents moved to Texas shortly after Ronald Reagan left office, they were able to get a mortgage at considerably lower rates. Now, we're getting ready to move again, and the folks were able to get a mortgage at 4.8%.

Is there anyway we could get Comcast to pay for the Iraq war? 60 billion dollars would go a long way.... ;-)
Nope. Its still Mac only. The new AIM client just provides support for Windows-compatible webcams.
I know there are plenty overseas, but are there any major maglev trains here in the U.S.? Any major cities using them?
What I want to know is who was getting this $29.99 service fee for Kazaa, a free P2P program. :-P
The government should be knocking at your door soon... hehehe ;-)

Are you sure you aren't thinking of 'Hell Is Other Robots' ?
Have you tried XPlay? I've found it very easy to use compared to EphPod. Even though it costs some money, its worth it.

I just saw the Seinfeld where Kramer fills Jerry's radiator will his blood.... now THAT's being powered by blood!

I'd say we're quite well off, thank you.
Well, at least all the ships have different names. They could all be named after one guy, like Kim Jong Il. ;-)
I went to the U.S. Patent Office's website, and looked up patent number 1... its some sort of 'Traction Wheel', which was patented in 1836. ;-)
