  1. Re:my $0.02 on How To Convince My Boss Not To Spam? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    While the practice would meet the definition of SPAM, he is probably not going to piss anyone off too much. If these are 'customers' of a competitor, they are people probably interested in travel deals. I'm not trying to justify your bosses actions, but taking the scope of the big bulk spammers into account this is a nit.

    Now if I were going to do this I would mention that 'so-and-so' (the competitors name) gave me your contact information as someone possibly interested in travel deals. Someone getting mad would probably get mad at the competitor.

    Then you're gonna LOVE November, cause the 'moonbats' are going to be running the 'koolaid drinkers' out on a rail.

    'Moonbats' and 'koolaid drinkers' are both terms widely used for liberals. Then again your post didn't make you sound all that astute, unless you think of that as two words. You seem to be the only one frothing at the mouth here.

    You may consider my favorite quote from Samuel Beckett (below) as my response to any further comment you may have.

    Exactly so.

    This hardly qualifies as Archeology at all.

    Not long ago at all, probably had a milk carton with his picture on it printed somewhere.

  21. Air isn't free... on 100-MPG Air-Powered Car Headed To US Next Year · · Score: 1

    At least compressed air isn't. The energy comparison for this kind of car versus the conventional kind would have to include what ever energy was consumed to compress the air. Of course this may still be greatly beneficial and could at least divert from use of liquid petroleum products to electricity (which might still be coal, but could be solar or wind as well)
