ke a moment to thank the Democrats for the Copyright Term Extension Act that President Clinton signed into law back in 1998. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonny_Bono_Copyright_ Term_Extension_Act However to be honest had the Republicans been in power then I doubt it would have made a big difference.
Nice troll. The Republicans controlled BOTH houses of Congress at that point. The President doesn't create legislation, Congress does. There's blame enough to go around in both parties.
The polar circumfrence of the moon is ony about 3500 km
BZZZTT! And thank you for playing. Here's your lovely parting gift.
The moon has a diameter of roughly 2160 miles, giving it a diameter of 3500 km, and a circumference of roughly 21800 km. Equator to pole is therefore about 5450 km.
I once went for an interview. At the time, I was a professional with about 12 years experience.
I took the day off of work, drove down the the interviewer's site for the interview. I thought it went well, they seemed interested. I left at about 1PM.
I received a rejection letter THE VERY NEXT DAY via US Snail Mail. This was a major defense contractor. The rejection letter had to go through internal mail, out to the US Mail mail, through the US Mail and be delivered the next day. The postmark on the letter was the day of my interview. I wish they had just called me and cancelled the interview. They had obviously already decided that they weren't going to hire me. It was a waste of my time and theirs as well. I considered it highly unprofessional.
On the other hand, sometimes headhunters have sent me to a job I'm grossly unqualified for. One time this happened, I was sent to interview for what turned out to be a DB Admin position. I know nothing about this. As soon as I found out, before the interview got really under way, I apologized to the interviewer for the waste of his time as I was unqualified for the position, and thanked him. When I got home, I sent him a nice letter afterwards anyways. I also called the headhunter and told him he was no longer authorized to send my resume to anyone (essentially firing him), and I told him why.

Bono was a Republican, as is his widow and successor in Congress, Mary Bono.

Whatever happened to him anyway? Did he fall into the Hellmouth?
Bentley has some unconscionable licensing.
See Ed Foster's Gripelog for details.
"plover" gets you out of the emerald room.
"fee fie foe foo" gets your money back from the troll.
Nah, it's "plover", or maybe "fee fie foe foo".
I was there. It was a great talk.
Then again, after drinking US coffee ...
Obviously, you have never had pure Kona coffee. IMHO it gives Jamaican Blue Mountain a run for its money.
Kona is in Hawaii, which is part of the US.
So basically, CAN-SPAM is really SWISS-CHEESE. There are so many holes in it that any idiot can figure out a way to avoid being penalized.
No, CAN-SPAM means that spammers CAN-SPAM you with impunity!
It should be "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot". International word for "W" is "Whiskey". WILCO is a military abbreviation standing for "Will Comply".
And only the Evil Content Pirates(tm) would refuse to buy Hollywood's obviously wonderful crap^H^H^H^Hcontent.
Remember, if you don't buy DRM'ed media, you're supporting the terrorists!
Really? Do the billboards and advertisements say:
"$BIG_MOVIE: License the content today!!!!"
or do they say:
"$BIG_MOVIE: OWN it today on DVD!!!"
Seems to me they are selling a copy of the content, not a license to the content.
I can attest to this. I was backing up an image of an 80G drive. It took forever... I suspect a tree-based file system would be much better.
And the MPAA will blame it on the Evil Content Pirates(tm), thereby demanding even more laws to protect their income.
Yep. Mistake in kitchen arithmetic. My point was that the OP was conflating diameter with circumference.

It's not a religious argument, but one of the human spirit. Wanting to know what's over the next hill... it's what makes us human.

Actually, I think Judge Kimball and Judge Wells have looked at the results in US v. Microsoft, and are trying to avoid what happened to Judge Jackson.
