Asking you to abide by terms of a contract you signed, is an unreasonable thing?
In any case, since when are we required to even possess, much less carry, much less produce on demand, photo identification?
If you are driving, a policeman may ask for your driver's license. That is the only thing a driver's license is meant for. If you are not driving, you don't need a driver's license -- obviously, I would think.
>> This reduces the speed limit by ~15%.. simplistic calculation - reduce the capacity by 15%
Wrong. If a car goes past every two seconds (or one second, or whatever), the number of cars per hour, and the capacity, is THE SAME regardless of what the speed limit is.
"Besides the inclusion of those two softs inside the office suite,"
Surely they mean "these two packages" or "these two applications." You can't have "a soft" (or "a software") any more than you can go buy "a hardware."
"Software" and "hardware" are the same things as "ketchup" and "water" -- collective nouns. Despite fast-food jargon, you don't have "one ketchup" you have "one packet of ketchup;" you have not "one water" but "one glass of water." If you have one ketchup, that might be Heinz; Perrier is one water, Evian is another.
If I believe an item is worth at most $120, and I bid $120 early, then the best you can hope for with sniping is $121... more than it's worth... you win the auction but, sorry pal, you've paid too much. And you'd have done just as well bidding $121 anytime earlier.
How can referencing someone else's library, regardless of their license, encumber my source code?
If I write, "call function SuperSecretMicrosoftThing in library MsftWinXYZ" how could that prevent me from putting my code under whatever license I want? I'm not distributing MsftWinXYZ, I'm just referencing it.
I wish the speed limit laws would be enforced. Around here, everone seems to drive like a Bat-Out-O-Hell (tm) and I'm frequently given the finger, or lights flashed, for having the unmitigated gall of *obeying* them.
And where it the outrage over traditional NTSC broadcasting being turned off at the end of the year?
Your portable TV, your regular TV with rabbit ears, and your radio that picks up the soap operas... are all going to quit working in a few months... forcing you to spend, what, $200 to be able to receive the new HDTV signals...
Where is the outrage? Or will it all happen when folks wake up and their TV's only show snow,...and in fact it will be *illegal* to run your old TV!!! Believe it!
Correction, MSNBC and the various Fox channels (other than the Fox Network which is Channel 10 here in Phoenix) aren't broadcast channels... they're pay channels (cable or satellite).
At least the rabbit-ears on my set can't pick them up.
My television has a knob, it works and I'm not afraid to use it! (Click, click, click)
how about a Serial RS-232 link... Kermit, that hoary standard, still is one of the best cross-platform transfer methods for machines of pre-Ethernet vintage.
At 9600bps you can transfer even the highest density 8" floppy in under half an hour!
(Ah, shades of my college job where our 'network' was oddball generic-MSDOS machines all with serial links to the VAX 11/750 in the back room with *Three* 30MB 14" Winchester drives, almost 100MB online, rah! Don't try and power all three up at once, though, or you'd blow the 100Amp breaker.)
You can only deduct charitable contributions if you itemize your deductions on Schedule A.
See the IRS page, "Should I Itemize?" http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc501.html
For those of us without mortgages or major charitable contributions, the Standard Deduction is far greater than what can be achieved with Itemization...
Permitting charitable contributions even for apartment renters would surely have a huge positive impact socially and economically... but as things stand, I and many others are foreclosed from realizing any *financial* advantage (as opposed to a warm fuzzy feeling) from charitable donations.

Here's a little chronology of New York City Subway graffiti. It hasn't been maintained for awhile so there are some borken links but you get the idea... you can see the 'Development of Style' from the 1972 rudimentary to the mid 1980s.

You join the Republican party if you think working people should be able to become rich, successful, or find happiness.
You join the Democrat party if you think working people should stay poor wards of the State.

Not to mention all the "TV Band Radios" will be useless as well.
No more listening to All My Children at work!

Nobody can require you to show a driver's license except a policeman pulling you over for a traffic violation. Driver's licenses are for driving only.
There is no requirement in the United States to even possess, much less carry, *any* identification *whatsoever*.
>> there were several vehicles blocking traffic by doing the speed limit should happen every day, shouldn't it? If not, Why not?

What exactly are they going to patch in the government?
Patent reform first, what's next?
Personally I'm waiting for Government 2008, it's supposed to be a whole new version.
> some states require you to show ID
There is no requirement for a U.S. citizen to have an identity card, so how can they require you to show something you may not have?

Emacs and several other tools later brought under the GNU umbrella were around long before the GNU Project was formally started.
VAX/VMS 3.1 manuals, all those shelves full of them, were about the same color orange.
Ah, for the comforting sight of a wall full of DEC manuals!
(And the faint whiff of vinyl ring binders, stale cigarette smoke, and dehydrated Dr. Pepper.)
Sorry, but if you disconnect a land-line service, you will have no dial tone... just a faint ground hum.
