Ok, next time i see her i tell her that an anonymous coward on slashdot thinks she's an idiot.
Just because English is derived from a beautiful language doesn't mean that it is still beautiful itself. But it's anyway a matter of taste. British English sounds very nice to me but when i hear Dubya talk...
Technically you are always connected but of what help is this if my provider here in Switzerland charges me 10 cents/10 kb of data and a monthly fee of about 3 euro/month just for GPRS?

This depends on what you define as a clean room. There are different classes of clean rooms defined by the amount of particles flying around.

they're all chatting to each other with txt messages instead of face to face talking!
So you're against phones altogether because SMS is a substitute for phone calls not for face to face communication. And SMS has several advantages over voice two of which are asynchronity and the fact that text messages are less transient than spoken words.
Get a cell phone.
But opposed to cigarettes you don't smoke PVC. That's a big difference because basically everything causes all sorts of cancer, it's just a matter of the dose.
Dosis facit venenum, or so.

Why vacuum?
Helium or Nitrogen are the real solution here.
Btw. in Switzerland the inventors of the dispos"able" DVD would already have been lynched for such an ecologically stupid idea!

Hey all, thanks for the free english lesson. I do not really plan to by stock in this company. It was meant as a joke.

If you buy an XBOX, install Linux and never buy any XBOX games you are actually getting money from MS.
And just like in yoghurt there needs to be growth for some time until you can really call it 'culture'.

Well in this case i guess it doesn't hurt THAT much because all the hollywood movies come out much earlier in the US than in the rest of the world.
