Because the Senate does represent the states, and each state is represented equally. Its the House that represents the citizens, which is why their number is determined by the states population.
I once won a 6-pack in a bet with my hillbilly father when I was in college. He said that the Calculus I was learning was useless to the "everyday man." I bet him I could prove that Calculus was useful to a farmer: Given a length of fencing, Calculus is the only way--other than trial and error--to determine what diminsions will yield the largest area.
Unlike C where a semicolon is used to separate statements, in Pascal it is used to end statements. Keywords such as else and end are not statements and thus the statement before them do not require one.
Or, if you really want to get anal:
program Anniversary (OUTPUT); {* define file used *}
begin
writeln ('Happy 30th Anniversary Pascal. You roxxorzz') {* semicolon not need before end *}
end.
I never understood why people feel the need to get "revenge" on a company that hired them and kept them employed, even if you didn't care of the work. "Thanks for giving me a continuous source of income. Now I plan to stick it to do." You'd expect that crap from the punk at McDonald's, not an educated professional.
I agree. I'm an SE with Lockheed. Equipment is not purchase company wide like this. Each project purchases what type of equipment it needs with its only money. We have several Solaris machines, and there is no plans to change them. As for MS, we all have PCs on our desks, but they are mostly for e-mail and the like. Most development is done on the solaris machines (we have xwindows clients running on the PCs).
I always thought FireFox was a stripped-down Mozilla--just the browser. I uninstalled it and went back to Mozilla because a lot of Mozilla's configuration options are missing from FirFox's preferences. There are some clunky plug-ins that add some of them back in, but why bother? I just install Mozilla itself, and install the browser only. Am I missing something here???
I don't care what they say. I have an edition of Goldman's book where *he* explains the origins of it in the foreword. It's his book, he would know more then they about it.
Um, yes there was. The "Princess Bride" was a very long, very dry satire that is now out of print. William Goldman's father use to read it to him and he loved it. Later, when he had his own son, he tracked down an English version in an out-of-print bookstore. He took it home, and his son didn't like it. Stunned, William Goldman purused the book and discovered that his father had only ever read the "good parts." So, he wrote an abridged version and spend many years, on and off, trying to make a movie out of it.
What gets me is that these people want to add to the constition (a document of freedom) to take away someone elses rights, and to push their religious agendas. Whatever happended to separation of church and state? I'm not gay myself, but I don't have time to worry about what other people are doing within their own homes.

Why should Rhode Island have two seats?
Because the Senate does represent the states, and each state is represented equally. Its the House that represents the citizens, which is why their number is determined by the states population.
As typical on Slashdot, you are reading in my post what is not there to suit your argument. You are assuming completely ideal conditions. I was not.
Would an open-faced slice of buttered toast, tied to the back of a cat, be a perpetual motion machine?

"Gold" in this case means that its the final version, ready for sell. It does not mean "sold a million copies" as in music sells.

That can't be right. That scene is on *all* the VHS versions I own.
"Quick, Buffy needs backup!" I almost pissed my pants!
I love VMWare for running really old DOS stuff. I even works with QEMM. If I could find sound drivers that work with it, it would be "perfect."

Wow, that's cool! Is there a document somewheres that explains what all these items mean.

Both, actually.

No, it is spelled Inigo. Read the book. His accent doesn't make him mispronounce his own name. The English speaker are the ones who mispronounce it.
What do you mean? That is how it is spelled. It's not "Indigo" if that is what you are thinking. Read the book.
You apparently weren't even your daddy's wet dream yet back then, or you were living under a rock.

AHEM to that! I had just recently re-watched the original three. I had fogotten how truly gorgeous she was then.
I always that the word "immflamable" was a weird one, given its meaning.

Sincere interest: do you know any indie bands that have styles simlar to Floyd? No cover bands, no immitators, but kind of Floyd-esque?
My ex-girlfriend used "unthaw" constantly. I couldn't make the moron understand why she was being stupid (other than for dating me!).
