well for one thing, Moore left out drug prohibition, a law that has raised crime by as much as 25% since it was enacted in the 1930's. That alone has created a lot of the criminals, and a lot of the reasons behind handgun violence today, oops, thats one thing he forgot. Another thing Moore left out was welfare and it's corellation to violence period. but anyways...
"Kinda sounds like the Linux crowd, huh? "I'm so ALTERNATIVE by patching my kernel every day while you brainwashed Windows sheep meander in unenlightened tedium." Funny to think that if you had back all the time you spent tweaking and patching (for no good reason other than to say you have the latest version), you wouldn't know what to do with the workstation on your desk."

loves playing the games on my mandrake box. She uses windows 2000 on her computer but as soon as i setup up a wireless access point and get her connected to my cable modem so she can ditch aol she'll be using linux as well. One look at tux racer and some of the other games that came with the installation was all it took. and its her idea to switch also!for webbrowsing, email and aol instant messenging, their shouldn't be any compatibility issues. she can use open office for all her school reports and use the dusty laptop i have with win98 in my closet for the rare occasion she needs something windows flavored.
