>>> Just a matter of time until all ISP's start imposing monthly bandwidth limits. Something needs to be done to stop this.
I admire your, erm, bravery? We all know this, but the question is WHAT do we need todo about it. I mean 1.5 Mbps down is a good deal at $30/mo. I would expect restrictions. The problem is, bandwidth is not really going down in price for COMMERCIAL use, so it is hurting small businesses. I have cable internet with comcast, and they leave me alone, and I use it like crazy, but they are so big, I don't think they really care. A sollution to this would to be to stop all the people who uncap their cable modems and mess up the infastructure of the ISP and mess it up for the rest of us.

I have a friend from NZ who sent us that, and we wanted to see what was stronger, NZ or US money. NZ passed every test, then we were able to kill it with an iron, the US money won in the long run, and NZ money gets all crinkley.
So, how is this a true benefit or improvement? I can shove paper money in my pockets, bend it, etc. But I don't want think to think having a card that you cant glimpse at to see how much it is worth, much less one that would be destroyed if bent or washed. Where does the money or value go if that happens? I feel these would be destroyed more than just paper money.
I am so lost, no posts after like 30 seconds. To keep this from being a troll: The do not email list will never work, it would be too big and take up too much processing power. It would be possible somehow if they used open source, open source will always work because it is what keeps the world at peace.
Manga seems to be big in the whole goth crowd, that is only where I see it. Adults say it isn't kid stuff, but they say it is because of the porno. I guess it is kinda like this guy.
Until they make this free, Linux will still roxor, since normal linux developers don't want to pay for anything, and everything in the world should be free. Thats why every company linux users like always go out of business, they don't pay for anything.
My highschool has a program with the CompTIA A+ Certification, and then you get to take two cisco classes the next two years and then get your CCNA (3 year program, 1 A+, 2 Cisco). The problem is, most people are just learning howto plug in an IDE cable and pop the computer on. They do not fully understand the concepts, and would die in a real IT job. I plan to work as a system admin at a local hospital for a few years after high school, and then go off to some college for a few years.
if my plastic sony vaio would be able to withstand the oven? Another reason why Apple rox0rs, you can cook your laptop and it still works. I hate WinTel laptops, and now I love mac ones more.
According to the site, I have found the magic link, I can get $250,000 for free, and find the best search results, this place is heaven! But seriously, what do these people call themselfs... companies? How do they expect to make any money by flashing crap at you like this?
Still not buying it...
I know plenty of people who are able to readily get hemp products without any legal problem. The only issue is that the hemp is imported.
If companies wanted to use hemp in the manners you suggest they could easily do it as well (considering most of our oil is from other countries I know they have such methods availible).
Furthermore, I have found a source for the carcinogens information via George Washington University, I'm sure a number of other groups have achieved similar results:
But marijuana smoke has more cancer-causing chemicals than tobacco. As stated before, it contains more than 400 harmful chemicals, which includes cancer-causing carcinogens. Marijuana smoke contains some of the same carcinogens and toxic chemicals as tobacco, but in higher concentrations. The amount of marijuana smoke inhaled per puff is two thirds larger than a typical puff of a tobacco cigarette. The reason behind this is that marijuana is smoked differently than tobacco. Marijuana smoke is inhaled deeper into the lungs, and is held there up to four times as long. These long drags force the rapid absorption THC by the lungs, the active ingredient in marijuana. As a result, the toxic chemicals in marijuana smoke can do much more damage to the lungs than cigarette smoke. [Source...]
So there you have it.
The "round-a-bout" 4x's number I gave previously was in reference to a recent commercial sponsored by the Ad Council.
I would also like to note that your article link provided some helpful information but I found the following comments to be rather interesting... "...but it may also help shrink brain tumours." - Of course it does, some brain shrinkage will occur with regular use of pot. "But a new deal forged between the Clinton administration and leading American magazines lends weight to allegations of government control of media coverage on this issue." - This seems weird considering that the Clintons are avid drug users. "...the risk of a heart attack is five times higher than usual in the hour after smoking a joint." - Can't disagree there.
The article presented no information on the uses of Hemp itself but only the uses of medicinal cannibus. Funny, but I understand that you are probably fighting this cause so greatly to support your own drug use.
I have nothing more to say on the matter in these forums.
Rebuttle
New study shows that pot has 4xs the carcenogens of cigarettes per joint/cigarette (average size).
Carcenogens cause cancer. Bad for your health. Nuff said.
Secondly, Bush announced his devotion to creating alternative energy automobiles which completely opposes your opinion on the "Can't have that! Dubya's family has been heavily into oil for decades. Step up the War on Drugs!" nonsense.
Finally, if Hemp is such a wonderful product then why don't the paper industries import it? (Much of America's papers are imported anyway).
Truely, if there was any real use, it would be put to use. Common sense would tell you that, and judging by your comments--you have none.
Hmm, I leanred somthing new today for once, and I am not going to actually fight with someone who thinks differently, because now I agree (with you, not that pot better than smoking).
Three joins are have the same amount of carcogens(sp?) as 20 cigarettes. Just because it is natural doesn't mean it is good for you. There is why pot is illegial, it is actually worse for you, I can tell by your wording that you are a pothead too, and probably irresponsible.
If you ever mention smoking is bad to a smoker, they get pissed, just like if you tell a script kiddie packeting is bad. Sounds like you need a cigarette to calm you down.
Don't all movies and such say in the beginning that there is a $250,000 fine for pirating movies? People say it is their first amentment to and they want to move away from America because of it. I always understood that if you are making money off it is when you get in real trouble. The law is the law, and it will remain in tact. Theft != 1st amendment.
I just saw a commercial that stated two new matrix movies are coming, the matrix reloaded (in may, duh) but to my suprise, the matrix revolution will be in November? I never heard of it, and I don't even like football, but I have it on the superball just so I'm not considered a terrorist.
Nothing good, just somthing called the superball or somthing like that, it would be nice if steve jobs and cowboyneal were in it, but they aren't, so I am just gonna watch the cloest thing, sponge bob square pants that I saved on my Tivo.

Yeah, it was so thin and shiney, she must have thought it was a cookie pan.
That is all nice, but can the WinTel laptops be baked in an oven and still work?
if my plastic sony vaio would be able to withstand the oven? Another reason why Apple rox0rs, you can cook your laptop and it still works. I hate WinTel laptops, and now I love mac ones more.
In short terms: This is just more proof that Apple is the only legitimate American corparation, and maybe Sun.
