Who said anything about violating the law? In the western US, at least, it's the law in every state I've been in that slower traffic keeps right. If you are in the left lane and someone comes up behind you -- guess what? You are slower traffic. Move the heck over. It doesn't matter if you are doing the speed limit.
Here's some info: http://www.mit.edu/~jfc/right.html
On any road with multiple lanes, especially freeways, the leftmost lane is meant to be a fast passing lane. Proper behavior is to use it to overtake then return to a more rightward lane as soon as you reasonably can.
Thanks for calling me a moron, but do you have any facts to back that up?
I do understand that this is the etiquette, but I disagree that the state would pour asphalt lanes with the expressed intent of someone using them to violate the law.
Now, you're likely correct when the highways are four total lanes divided by some yellow paint. The risk of going over the line is too great when oncoming traffic is only a few feet away. But then I specifically said 'interstate', didn't I?
Humans have sexual urges, it is not realistic to expect them to be celibate. Deprive humans of sex and put them in control of a ton of people who look up to them as the hand of god, a situation very much deliberately created by the catholic church, and you will have abuse in a significant percentage of cases. It's particularly telling that the Greek Orthodox church is not having these problems; they're basically Catholics with marriage for priests and without a pope.
This is dumb on so many levels --
1) rate of pedophilia (actually it's not pedophilia since most victims were teenagers, but that's a nit) in the Catholic priesthood is not been shown to be higher than in other populations like teachers and Protestant ministers.
2) Orthodox (not just Greek) have their set of problems no less than Catholics. They don't get the press because a) there are so few of them in the US and b) they don't have the (comparatively) deep pockets the Catholic Church does so suing them isn't very productive.
Yes, all healthy people have sexual urges, but most of us don't act on them inappropriately, priests included.
"Freedom of speech, in the United States at least, is not given to citizens so that they can harm other people's reputations or hold them accountable for their actions"
Actually, in the US, freedom of speech is not "given" to us by the government (cf. Declaration of Independence). We believe the right to freedom of speech comes from our Creator, not the government. Major difference between the US and most European states.
Algol 60/58 or Fortran 66 are not "software version numbers". They are specifications that individual compilers complied with (to varying degrees). Each of those compilers had their own version numbers that were revised from time to time though the compilers were still a "Fortran 66" compiler.
Naming by year definitely predates Win95; I seem to recall there was a Clipper release called "Summer of xx" (sorry don't recall the year).
In my opinion, churches that take stances on political issues like that should lose their tax-exempt status, as the clause under which they are tax exempt clearly prohibits political activism.
There's nothing wrong with churches being tax exempt and being political. The restrictions are against PARTISAN politics. There's a really, really big difference. Your opinion would seem to be that churches have no right to participate in public discussions at all.
To the best of my knowledge, Nevada brothels are not in cities, so municipal govts. have nothing to do with it.
That said, I don't know if they are taxed by the county govts. or not.
Seriously! It's REALLY good exercise, you can do it indoors any time of year (unless the rinks around you are seasonal), and for an introvert it's ideal because it's very introspective, just you and the ice. It also appeals to perfectionists because there's always something more to improve, more to perfect. Things can always be just that little bit better.
When I started skating I lost 20 lbs or more and got in really great shape.
Downsides are mostly that it's rather expensive compared to more 'conventional' sports, sometimes ice availability is limited, and instead of being hot and sweaty, you'll be cold and sweaty:-). Oh, and there's the whole "falling" thing, but you get used to that.
Considering the fact that the very idea of the university came out of the Church and many early scientists were priests and monks, and considering the innumerable number of hospitals, schools and orphanages founded by believers, I'd say this is a pretty stupid comment.
This really appeals to me as being relatively easy to deal with, however, my current BSD server box is also a CVS and Subversion server. Can FreeNAS do that too, or is it outside the scope? If it's already running Apache it seems like Subversion wouldn't be too much of a stretch.

I agree that it's frustrating to not be able to natively compile the VAX port, that's not really the same thing as saying (as in the subject line) that the VAX port "stopped working". It works just fine.

Um, you shouldn't have to create two CDs. Just put all the files in an 3.7/{arch} dir. It's really pretty simple. For i386 you can use cdrom37.fs as your boot image, for the others it's basically a floppy disk image if I remember correctly.
