If my son really wants to go to a fast food place and get a toy, I tell him "no" and explain to him why. He understands, we eat something healthy at home and then go buy a toy at the dollar store.
I bet that if you took a 15 year old from 1850 and a 15 year old from 2007 and dropped them alone *in their own environment* the 1850er could probably find his own food, cook his own meal, etc. This reminds me of the story of Obediah Simpson, an 18th century settler in southern Canada, and his son:
"In February of 1796, he took his eldest son, John (12 years old), a team of oxen, and one cow, and travelled along the Bay of Quinte to what is now Presqu'ile Bay. Obediah stayed long enough to build a small log hut for his son and a shelter for the cattle, then strapped on a pair of snowshoes and hiked back to Adolphustown. For 6 weeks, John was left alone to fend for himself and to take care of the small, but vital, herd. Obediah returned by boat, along with the rest of the family, in the spring. Having secured a land grant while in Adolphustown, Obediah Simpson was to become the first settler in what is now the Town of Brighton. The Simpson Family of Brighton took root."
I think my biggest beef with Ubuntu is the RootSudu. I understand the whole disable root login notion, I just can't get used to it. I work faster when I'm really root. I'll just use a strong password.
I remember in '99/2000 I was working as a developer for a small dot-bomb startup. We installed and configured test machines all the time and so we didn't really care about security on those test boxes. I remember once we installed Redhat 9 and left it for 15 minutes and it was rooted.
Then you don't have a very good memory, because Red Hat 9 was released in April 2003.
Someone on the other side of your argument could easily quote the 'average' penalty for both, and cite that the former is zero, as no one on record has been sentenced to jail for pirating that crappy movie.
The average would not be zero; it would be "undefined", since you would compute the average by dividing zero by zero.

Your books are full of bullshit masquerading as research, yet they sell like pancakes. What is the secret?
Average income is generally higher than median income. Don't confuse the two concepts.

It was in the 1986 World Cup, not the 1990 one.
Yeah, those damn foreign-born Canadians...

And for that, sir, I am truly sorry.
Ewww, who describes a cock as juicy.
A puto, maybe? Look up the word in a Spanish dictionary.
