    becasue its better to create a small amount of waste that can be handled with ease, better then burning coal and oil creating many diffrent wastes and gasses that are harmfull to humans, animal life, plant life and the atmosphear.

    frankly i don't get why so many people get up in arms over fission and many totaly false statistics and facts about it and totaly overlook the very true facts about coal and oil. more people will die from coal pollution this year then nukes ever have killed.

    So all in all its better then anything else we got (and no, wind solar and hydro and no where near enough) and for now its what we should be useing untill clean power is more easeily availble

    its the net man, i dont' try to type slowly and accutarty nor do i give a fuck, its a god damn comment, not an essay. and WHO should have been HOW but i typed way to fast. i didn't proofread so sue me, i'm sure you'll win.

    i don't care what u or anyone else says, those cororate fat cats spend their money on all sorts of useless things in america, and they have to employ people to produce whatever the goverment wants. Either way the money comes down to the lower class. Sure they get money for doing nothing, oh well, somehow they got there and nothings going to change that anytime soon.

    And defense spending and research does better all of us, if it wasn't for it you wouldn't be here on the net, not to mention many other things. i may be 20 but i understand the world better then you do it seems. you anonymous coward.

    I never play games with the orig CD in the drive, i own over 100 and i have ALL of them ripped to my HD for easy play, and all the CDs & inserts in jewelsleeves in a big case that i never open except to pu new ones in. saves me time and effort when i want to play a game i haven't in months.

    deleteing someones home dir is out of the question no matter what the reason is, what happened if you accidenty entered a wrong serial, dont' know anything about computers? theres a bug in the application? someones just trying it out before they buy? And there better be a warning on the serial enter box stateing that if you entrer a hacked key your home dir will be wiped.

    Doom 3 DID NOT lose millions of dollars. and if sales were poor it was bceause the game was to damn short and not all that great. ANd to bloody expensive.

    and i'd argue that games are sucking because so much money is spent in INEFFECTIVE anti-piracy scheams, so why do they even bother?

    bah, you fool, spending money for defense puts money into hard working americans pockets. the kind of people who deserve money. scientists, workers, and more. It also increases inovation. all in all a net benifit.

    but spending money in social programs is just giveing money to the lazy, or inept, or the stupid. Also makeing jobs for those who have little or no skills, those who run the programs. here in cananda eploment insurance and workers comp is a joke, its hard to get if you really need it, but there are many who are fat, and or lazy, or whatnot and do. People who by all rights shouldn't be getting money.

    ie defense spending good for the economy and everyone in general, soical spending on welfare bad for everyone except those who directly benifit.

    at least this is my view. dunno who right i am, i'm only 20 with ~2 years of uni:)
