i'm not blaming bush for anything. i see this as a catalyst for things he needs - i.e. excuses to reign things in more. i was commenting on a potential series of future events, not a conspiracy. i will not reflect on past causalities but i will speculate on future events. feel free to ignore me. select 'exclude stories posted by michael', as this is where i tend to flame the most (because michael = asshat).
good to see that all the ACs are out today, as none of us have the balls to stand behind our own statements.
anyway, what the hell does 'when the program started' have anything to do with this? if you're making some tie to israel, knock yourself out - i'm just looking a few levels ahead. this will most likely result in the severe reduction of non-military nasa activities, and give bush more money to dump into his 'liberation'efforts. we stand at a dangerous point in history and i'm pretty sure we'll make the wrong choice.
All I can say - fuck. Not that we know anything yet, since the fucking press is slinging shit around like the monkeys they are with absolutely no evidence one way or another. But if this is in fact what we hope it's not, now we've lost more good people, and now we effectively have no space program. Keep it up bush - pax americana is one step closer for you.
while you could argue this either way, i knew plenty of "serious business types" with multiple successful ventures over decades, who consequently plowed tens of millions (directly, not through funds) into startups and consequently losts tens of millions + however much more they were convinced to throw in.
thanks! i read a brief description of Morrow's books several years ago and for whatever reason forgot the specifics, but remembered the concept. needless to say, i just picked it up on half.com
you know, after i wrote that i realized that some may take it as black humor, others frustration, and some may be offended. it was a kneejerk statement made in a fit of frustration and helplessness, which has been with me since that day. i didn't mean to make light of your loss, or anyone else's. for that i am sorry. consider my inappropriate way of coping with a situation i'll never really get over.
my old company had the best method for destroying our sensitive data (like the gig of porn some asshat left on the XML server) - leave them in the old building! god bless those terrorists and their whacky flight skills.
btw, has anyone seen my old ti calculator? it was on the 21st floor of two.
i wonder how this thing 'feels' in your hand, meaning - it has a hinge, and a portion of the weight is hanging off at an angle - will it get too heavy, or at least awkward, after a while?
Once I see America embracing the freedom it so adamantly preaches, I'll understand complaints such as this one.
Normally I don't agree with foreign nationals, but I think this gentle(wo)man is right. What the hell have we been doing to ourselves lately? Consider that a rhetorical question, as I have no answers. But on the other hand, the beauty of freedom is that you can contradict yourself - that may not make total sense, but it's an inherent advantage of our system, even though it might be seen as a flaw. okay, now i'm not making any sense. end communication.
i kinda got that vibe too, a la the simpsons episode where homer has 'won' a free boat and is tricked into coming to the police station, where he is promptly arrested for overdue parking tickets.
What are you talking about non-Cocoa widgets? Are you high?
nothing like a browser flame war to bring on the fun.:)

well asshat, i'm merely suggesting that people who have generic reactions or impressions of the first episode, that share specifics that might ruin it for others, let us know ahead of time. make sense?

agreed. something like this is only upsetting

i wouldn't call that conclusive evidence, but you're entitled to your opinion.

french fry cluster bombs!
which would be especially threatening if they were made of day-old mc donald's fries - you can slit a man's throat with one of them.
never forget -
michael = asshat
spoon? there is no spoon...

the slashdot comment is appropriate, though.
Imagine a subway train full of people gyrating with their PDAs. It will look like a bunch of DDR freaks on mescalin.
...nothing I didn't see on the E train this morning...

I love all these articles that tell you how to be successful in life/work/love/etc
is that a standard directory in some linux distro i haven't used yet? can i see your config files?
btw, agree with everything you said.

I second this. Strike before they grow in numbers.
