"MS already has Office running under Linux, but refuses to market it."
Do you have any conclusive proof that MS has compiled a version specifically for Linux, and not Darwin PPC, or are you just speaking out of your ass, (like most l33t h4x0rZ on slashdot)?
Also, you may be interested in this: ASPO Newsletter 48, December 2004. If the ASPO is right, then we only have a couple months before reaching global peak for conventional oil, and only a little over 2 years for all non-conventional oil and gas fields globally. On a scale of months, this is almost 100% within most people's lifetime, and 2007 is very close to 100% of the population's lifetime. This event will not only effect your children when they are old, it will affect you near in the future. Renember the 1973 gas lines? What is coming will make 1973 look like a walk in the park on a Sunday afternoon. For more indepth, but dated), reading I highly reccomend visiting this site.
IEA Predicts (Entire) US Peak by 2010. That is only 5 years away, which is concevably within the lifetime of most persons now living. The only exempt persons would be those close to death, or accidental deaths/homicides before then.
Considering the age of the planet, versus the age of the Human species, it will. Oil takes several tens of millions of years to form while under great pressures while the human species has only been on this earth for maybe 3 million years. Millions of years from now, oil will renew its self, and chances are heavily in favor of an extinction event occuring some time before them regarding the human race. So yes, petrolium will eventually renew, and will outlast the human race, because we will not be inhabiting the planet to extract the oil.
If you are reffering to the current oil reserves, (which I assume you are), then it is almost inevitable the impact on the human species due to inadequate oil supplies will take hold. Ranges on the peak date vary somewhat, with 2007 being the earliest generally accepted date. The USGS predicts peak extraction will occur around 2025, and this is considered a "best case" scenario. One only needs to look at previous data to confirm that M. King Hubbert was correct in his 1970 peak extraction date for the contidental United States. The CIA also performed a study in 1977 regarding the upcoming Soviet Oil Crisis (doc ER 77-10147). Interesting to note is the fact that this report was not declassified until January 29, 2001 even though the USSR had collapsed almost 10 years earlier.
Peak Oil is a well known phenomenon, only this time, it is taking place on a global scale, and not only on a reigonal basis. Due in part to the lack of sufficient energy, the Soviet Union no longer exists. The United States also outspending the USSR also contrubuted significantly to thier collapse. This situation is also being repeated with OPEC reducing the amount of funds held in USD in favor of the Euro and Pound Sterling, as well as Japan threatening a "Huge Dollar Sell Off". Enjoy the good times while they last, for they may not last long.
http://tinyurl.com/4rjza is a very interesting read. Oil affects much more than the ability to move products via internal combustion engine. Less oil=less food=involintary population adjustment
We as a civilisation have even more of an issue to deal with, what will replace petrolium once peak oil has happened? The growth rate will continue to increase, yet actual supply will forever diminish. How are we as a globe supposed to combat the "War On Poverty" if there is not enough cheap energy available for even the current base of first world nations?

If you have been employed for 6 months with Wal*Mart, you can elect to purchase stock at the current price. The company will match your purchase up to $1500 per year. Considering that most of the employees at my local wal*Mart, (1870), have been there for at least a few years, many also have stock options. So, you are stating that Wal*Mart is good for the employee, and you are bitching about it? You make no séance.
I read the title to the article, and I thought they were training whities to iniltrate South Korea. Only after reading the description did I realise it was computer crackers.
The world will not end until the sun becomes a red giant in about 4 billion years and engulfs the earth in its rapidly expanding diameter. Even then, the physical existence of the earth will still be present, merely inside of a star and uninhabitable. It is not the end of the world I am talking about, it is simply a severe change in the American way of life. I simply do not want the problems of Venezuela or Ethiopia to arrive on the shores of the US, and the peak oil situation threatens to do exactly that; end the modern industrial society based on consumerism. Yes, I hate the deluge of advertisement, and have actively pursued to limit the amount of advertisement that I am subjected to, (such as by eliminating television, and all American radio broadcasts), and have found a new home on an ad-free internet, (thanks to a 2048 KB long hosts file), as well as S/W radio. Who ever came up with the scheme that material objects should influence ones happiness should have taken a psychology examination, and been shot up full of morphine.
I want consumerism to die, not industrial society. The thought of worrying about having enough rain to feed my crops in order to survive rather sucks compared to worrying about how I am going to fit a rectangular box into a square hole while binning excess freight. We need capitalism back, not this new corporatist regime where entrepreneurs cannot compete on any level with Wal*Mart and other giant retail chains. Consumerism must die, industry must live.
What does your party intend to do about the coming shortage of petroleum based energy that will be even more apparent in the near future, (2-3 years)? I have heard President Bush's rhetoric regarding a "Hydrogen Economy", but hydrogen is merely an energy carrier, and not an energy source. Hydrogen may be the most abundant material in the universe, but it does not exist in a free state on the planet earth. Hydrogen must be extracted from compounds such as water or natural gas. Since natural gas is depleting at a very rapid rate on the north American Continent, and importation of this substance over oceans is very difficult. The effort to create a "hydrogen economy" is just boondoggle. If elected, what policies will you implement to ensure the continuance of energy for little cost, and how you ensure that a hard crash scenario does not occur? What will you do to ensure the survival of the "American Way" of life? Please only provide answers that are actually feasible with current technology, not just political tripe. I do not buy into the blind optimism that the media and political parties are forcing upon the American people. Positive thinking will not benefit a nation when mother nature is holding the loaded gun to our collective heads.
At the current rate of depletion, the global extraction rate for all petroleum is expected to arrive in 2005-2006. Any conservation of petroleum based fuels will only lessen the burden during the transition phase. For details on how the global oil crunch is unfolding, I suggest you do some research regarding peak oil. What you find will surprise you.
Terrorism, and a lapse economy are great to bitch about for effecting the outcome of an election, but what about something of global importance, such as peak oil? Peak oil is the greatest threat to not only the United States, but to the very life of consumerism that has gripped the globe. If you thought the battle of OSS is important, then the coming global oil crisis will be not only endangering the microsoft empire, but all of society.
IP addresses may change due to not having a fixed IP available through providers, but usually subnets do not change. Instead of just blocking the offending IP of (example), 207.235.192.190, just block the subnet of 207.235.192.*. Your problems will be cut in half. On top of a subnet block, you can also block usernames, as well as entire netblocks if needed. You may effect innocent individuals, but it will be the most effective. Note that if you decide to block off netblocks, you will greatly impact the accesablity for your site, and may get accused of running a site like a facist dictator.
This evolution crap just makes no sense. God created the heavens and earth in only 7 days, not several billion years. The earth is only 6000 years old, not 6.5 billion. This is blasphamy, and the fossil record is no proof of evolution. All a fossil proves is that somthing existed at one time, but no longer does. Most of these cretures probably existed pre-flood, so it has little relevance to today's life. Adam set death into this world, not God.
I don't care if FM has better quality, and broadcasts in stereophonic audio, AM radio just has better programming. AM radio actually takes some intelligence to fully understand, while FM just broadcasts the same old boy-band/country/pop/metal/rap noise. At least AM radio actually carries topics of interest to me, by talk shows such as: Rush Limbaugh, The Sean Hannidy Show The Micheal Savage show, When Radio Was, The Jim Bohannan Show, and Coast To Coast AM. For all I care, FM radio can go to where it was prior to 1970: back to the elevator music. What qualifies these days as "music" isn't much better than elevator music, or Music On Hold anyway. I'll take KQQQ and KMAX over ZFUN, KRAO or KHTR any day of the week.
Also, have you ever been able to get an atmospheric skip with FM? I think not. I can barely pick up some Spokane channels on FM, but on AM, I can regularly pick up San Fransisco, Vancouver, Salt Lake City, Denver, and sometimes Los Angeles. I would like to see your puny FM radio do that! Long Live Free Play Radio Plus! AM will never die!
I am not trying to be funny either, I am 100% serious. I could frankly give a shit less about being politically correct anymore. Go ahead, mod me down. The world is not going to end because of it. The world will end because of peak oil, and we only have a short time left.
Due to the fact that we are going to start on the downslope of Hubbert's peak very soon, transportation requiring petrolium based fuels will not be an option. I say that we are on the down slope due to this data stating that peak oil extraction was in 2003.
This is retarded. There is NO WAY I would ever buy a car with a "1 piece" front end that only an authorised technician could remove. There is a couple reasons for this. The first one is that at the shop where my father works, the labor rate is $75.50/FLHR (Flatrate Hour). While a part may cost $20.00 like my heater core did, If I had a shop install it with the labor at 2.2 hrs, I would have to pay $166.10 in labor, $20.00 for the part, and 8.5% tax. This would bring the total to $201.92 for the installation of a $20.00 part. That is just assanine. I can install it myself for the cost of the part, and I don't have to sit in the damn waiting room wondering how much longer they are going to be fucking with my vehicle. Another reason, is that I do all of my own maintaindace. It takes me 15 miniutes to do a complete LOF, and I can get the oil, filter, grease, and fuel additive for only $16.00. A LOF at a shop would cost between $20.00 and $30.00. Much cheaper to do it myself. The last reason is that I like to fine tune performance, and I would not be able to do so if the "hood was welded shut". And I ghigly doubt that the technician would have approval from thier service manager to tweak my carborator to the 4 barrels open up under half load. I can roast anything thatis currently sold as a "sport car". I have beat a mustang, a Camero, and a firebird. And I have a 1981 Oldsmobile Delta 88. I may get 11 MPG, but I can roast the tires off of the line.

I'll propably get modded down for this, but I don't really give a flying fuck. I am sick of the EU thinking that they are so fucking great, just because they have many countries that are members that span a contident. They have made thier oown cross-country currency called the Euro, (what an original name, NOT), but that is not a bad thing. Personally, I think it would b a lot better if there was only 1 currency worldwide just primaily for the ease of cinversion. But that is not what I am bitching about.
What I am bitching about is that the EU wants to become the next world power. One question, How the hell are they going to manage this, unless the individual countries lose thier soverntey, and become like states in the US with a centeral govonrment? I think that this is the next step, and it is going to suck. All signs point to "yes" for this happening. The EU took on MS, but that is usually the private domain of an individual country, not a conglomeration of shitheads. Plus, how long so you think that this stability will last? Not too long. The UN was founded on the same idea of nations joining together for the good of them all, but have we ever had peace among all nations involved in it? NO! Did the Versillis treaty prevent WW2? NO, did the Warwaw pact get anything useful done? NO! Communism failed, as it is a flawed system. so why o people think that the EU will succeed? History has shown that "unionised" countries are not very productive. What's next? A worldwide religion containing all the major beliefs from all of the religions except Christianity? Plus, the US has more tactical nuclear weapons than all of the european contident, within 45 miniutes, we could destroy every life form on the planet, and render the EU radioactive for 10000+ years. Eat Shit EU! We dont need you!
Yes, you can install IE6 on Windows NT 4.0. Although to do so, you must have SP 6a installed. If you were reffering to Windows 95, you would be correct. Windows 95 only allows the installation of IE 5.5 SP2 or lower.
I will never pay money to listen to the radio. Granted, it may be commercial free now, but how long do you think that will last? Not long. Cable TV used to be like that until there was a massive enough audience to justify advertising expenses. Right now, the primary reason why there is no advertizing on sattilite radio is due to the lack of audience to advertize to.
I will never pay money to watch TV, or listen to the radio. I could really give a crap less if the signal is clearer, and there are more channels to choose from. If I can't pick up TV free over the air, or radio, I will just start watching more movies, and listen to my CD's. I won't pay for garbage when I can get the same old shit for free.
How good do you think your reception will be in the mountains? You won't pick up squat. The sattilites are going to be blocked by the mountains, and you will not get any signal. If you don't belive me, biuld a brick wall in front of your DishTV feedhorn, and see how much you pick up. You either get crystal-clear reception, or none. At least wih analoque brodcasts, I can pick it up almost anywhere. There may be some static, but not total loss of signal. The same goes with HDTV, but that is a completly different subject.
" Then again, here in the USA I could demand my constitutional right to bear arms..."
Afraid not. Millitary hardware and munitions require a valid class E weapons permit to legally obtain, and posess. If you manage to get such clearence, you can have virtually any weapon you could desire from a.22LR to a surface-to-air missile, to a rocket propelled gernade launcher. The second ammendment to the united states constitution is only applicable to convetional firearms.
