    IANAL of course. I'm sorry, but with that in caps, my eyes just shoot right to it, so the first thing I read looks to me like "I anal, of course." yeah. There's got to be a better acronym for that.

    actually that's the only country in the world with a higher prisoner to free person ratio than the us. Interesting that.

    In Switzerland, important changes to the law must be approved by the public.

    ah yes, but who decides what's important? Or is that just something that a dirty american would say.

    to get a 9 it would have to grant total enlightenment. And of course there is that last point, for which it would have to (physically) sexually pleasure the reader during the reading.

  11. just convert from their formats on Hiding Your Choices And Saying You Made Them · · Score: 1

    with this. I know it's a pain to have to use a program (a bit difficult to use sometimes) so that your file can be read by another program (all those extra clicks shorten the life of my fingers you know), but it's a lot less of a pain than having to deal with realplayer.

  12. Re:80s hysterics? on The New Face of Global Competition · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why are we so adversarial? We are on top now, and we like it that way, but now that we're slipping we're afraid we're going to be enslaved like you said. Maybe those countries just want a better place for themselves, and I don't see a problem with it. It's not like it's economic war. And it makes sense that a company would move it's production somewhere cheaper. Bitching and moaning isn't going to help. The thing is, it would be natural for them to stay here, they don't even need a reason not to move. However, there is a big one to move, so they do.

    So I've been sitting here hitting refresh for a few minutes watching this post get modded. Very interesting. Seriously though, first post on the first article of the year and you didn't write "FiRST POST!!1!"? (ironic that I said seriously though before that isn't it) What's wrong with you?

    Yeah. Where does this game not apply, seriously. "You ivory tower intellectuals must not lose touch with the world of industrial growth and hard currency.
