I'd like to address this, as I have personal experience.
First of all, nut allergies are not caused by crazy overprotective parents (yes, I know he didn't say that, but it was kind of implied). When our daughter was 4, she ate some pecan turtles, and swelled up like a balloon. We took her to the doctor who tested her and said, "Nut allergy".
Second, nut allergies can be deadly. Anaphlactic shock can kill someone fairly quickly.
Third, I never tried to regulate what other kids brought to school for *their* lunch. My only request -- stated to the teacher and to other parents -- was that if they are bringing goodies *to share with the class*, that they avoid nuts in such items.
As for the "no nut/peanut zones" in schools, I think they're CYA for the schools.
Read PJ's final post. She shut down as a direct result of the Lavabit situation.

Sorry, I was thinking C++, where it is defined.

If low and high are unsigned, then (low + high)/2 is well defined, because unsigned arithmetic is defined as modular.
It has to have flair... it works at Tchotchkes. It needs at least 15 pieces of flair!!!!
Allow me to introduce you to a new word... Schadenfreude.
Ada 83 sucked. Ada 95 fixed most of the problems, and I believe that they're up to Ada 2012.
Can we get an ASBO against Cameron?
I believe the .gov (of your choice) tells us, "If you have nothing to hide, then you have nothing to fear."
Given that official line, the Us.gov and the UK.gov's reactions are quite telling...
Many Bothan interns died to bring us this acronym!
Too late.
Not any more. The Klingons killed him where he stood.
Snowden wouldn't go to Germany. I'm sure they have an extradition treaty with the US, and Germany hasn't granted him asylum.

What is half a pair of scissors, but a single sciz!!!

My brother in law was in a band with Chris. Nice guy.
I can't remember how many patients I killed in L&D2. I destroyed so many brains, I should have started a zombie feed store.
