you actually do NOT have the right to confront your accusor.

I see.
So I should quit my job because they use MS Windows as their platform?
Yeah, but if NASA uses that, it will create an Earth-Shattering Kaboom!

You're not claiming that your stapler is worth $150000 a copy either.
I didn't read your third paragraph, which I agree with, re conflict of interest.
The assessors around here for the county, and the appraiser for banks have had very little reason to bother with reasonable numbers.
One could argue the fact that said assessors and appraisers have a conflict of interest.
The prices of property wouldn't be declining the way that they have been lately if the value estimates correlated to reality.

I picked this book up as a door prize at SCALE a couple of weeks ago, and haven't had a chance to read it yet.
Trolltech, however, can grant exceptions to certain licenses, although I don't know which clause permits them to do so.
The fact that they own the copyright on the Qt code and can therefore license it however the hell they want permits them to do so.

That was supposed to be in response to KublaiKhan's post.
You're forgetting about the photino birds.
Unfortunately, your superpower is the ability to grow your nails really fast.
Yeah, but you've got to boot off of CD to use it, otherwise you're suspect, since you've booted off the bogus MBR to get to the recovery console.

Apparently, the B-T theorems can be used to describe quark behavior.
Yeah, it was a standard roll-on. I was in the last boarding group, and there was literally nowhere to put it. They had to gate-check it.
nyone remember the reused color-coded plastic handout boarding passes?
Yeah, but you had to get to the airport *real* early to get a good one.
This study reminds me of the old joke about the early days of the space race.
NASA was worried about the effects of hi-G on astronauts, so they hired some ivory-tower types to work on the problem.
About three months later, they came back to NASA and said, "We've solved it!"
The NASA manager in charge asked them to detail their solution.
The head professor said, "OK. First, assume a perfectly spherical astronaut...."
If you have an aisle seat, wait until near the end of your section/group is called since you'll have to get up anyway to let the window seat in
At which point, I have no place to stow my standard-sized carry-on bag.
Growing up, I used the library to be able to freely read books.
Cue the MAFIAA saying this guy is a thief for not paying for his reading.
