Gosh. I had no idea that Colonel Sanders, the Rothschilds, and the Vatican were scheming to kill off the worlds' excess population via war in Iraq and by introducing large carnivores into Kansas. For that matter, I was unaware that said overpopulation was centered in the North American plains states. Huh.
Are we using the standard-gauge (.0011") or heavy-gauge tinfoil?
Of course, there's nothing hateful like that in the King James Bible.
KJV - Exodus [32:27] And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
KJV - Jeremiah [18:21] Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death; let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.
KJV - Ephesians [5:5] For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
All sorts of religious texts have been used throughout history to justify abhorrent acts. Nothing new. In my book, if they initiate force against the innocent, they're bad guys.
Large passenger aircraft do not cruise on all their engines, typically.
Huh? Where does this interesting tidbit come from?
Generally speaking, the only time airliner engines are throttled back to idle in flight is just prior to being shut down due to being on fire.
"Crossing the Atlantic on one engine" in a 747 would be quite a feat. Lots of rudder trim, I guess.
The engines are run at equal power settings. Period. Airline operators don't play around with asymmetrical power settings.
Additionally, engine hours are based upon running time, not power settings. An engine running at idle for 1 hour accumulates the same time as an engine running at METO power.
If you'd dedicate one half of the time you probably spend searching for the latest drive bay cooling accessory for your fire hazard PC to researching the current Apple hardware market, you would find that thousands are not required to play in the OS X sandbox.
Currently at the Apple Store, a brand-spankin' new eMac is $800.00. Not thousands. Runs OS X delightfully.
At PowerMax (used Mac retailer), a used PowerMac G4 AGP can be had for just $479.00. Not thousands. Runs OS X perfectly acceptably. With processor upgrade & hot graphics card, runs OS X delightfully.
If you're happy with your system, great. Be happy, and peace to you. But don't parrot on the same old tired lies about the "thousands" required to use Apple products.

Oh, and they're more expensive.
Oh, and less warez.
Can't believe I'm posting this.

Original sentence was better.

Perhaps not.
It's not as if Microsoft has the money to run out and hire the best possible support staff for any given platform...
Oh, wait...
In high power model rocketry, we call this condition "Shovel Recovery," and it's not pretty.

Why is Johnny Cash running around in the desert, and who's this bastard with a gun chasing him?
Ford's cover story was that he was an actor from Guilford. Folks from Guilford tend to have a British accent.
Reading the portion of the book describing Ford tends to bring to mind a certain image, which is almost certainly not Mos Def.
Read the books.
The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential have a long history of working with brain-injured children. Results have been remarkable.

I'm thinking the licensing fees alone could have Bill Gates cleaning the toilets in Cupertino.

I'm in Nevada, where the powers that be decided we needed EVMs.
I was trepidatious about the whole thing, but was pleasantly surprised. My EVM allowed me to vote three times for Badnarik and twice for Bush.
Share and enjoy.

I believe SpaceShipOne was carrying Melville, and some weight.
