Percent, not cents, monkey. Unless they're ordering stuff under a dollar, I think the difference will be more than that. Can't find the website in question, but if you assume a cheap meal at $15 - $30 per person, then they're pocketing more like $2.5 - $10 extra per person. It took six months from the complaint until now; they've possibly raked in quite a bit extra over that time.
Well, until you multiply the this by the size of the universe (effectively infinity) and the length of time in which this has to occur (also something like inifinity). Then it's occurrence seems pretty much inevitable.
I work for the Electoral Enrolment Centre, New Zealand (http://www.elections.org.nz). We don't count the votes, we just make and maintain the rolls.
Here, you can walk into a polling booth on the day, enrol then and there, even if you've never enrolled at any address, and cast a vote. Your enrolment will be checked and, if valid, your vote will be counted.
Why the hell doesn't something similar happen there? It sounds like fecked up organisation - unless you're bent towards conspiracy theories;)
BTW, the office vote here is for Kerry. Or anyone that isn't Bush.
wtf do they have psych evuations for at all? I never had any of that shit done at my university, my sanity (or lack thereof) is nobody's business but my own!
All the April fools activity in New Zealand is over already... this is like having to live through the damn day twice, once locally and once over the net:-/

Is it possible to get adblock to block text advertising? I haven't noticed that capability anywhere.

No, it still leaves it screwed on the iPod filesystem. This _does_ keep it nice and tidy on your box though, you're right there.
Thank god someone realises this, I was beginning to think that the world was completely full of incompetent idiots...
The kid should have turned himself in to microsoft and made a tidy profit out of it!

Nah, I'd miss all the sheep here ;-)
