PC magazine does not write about linux or Macs. They write about PCs--which are implicitly Windows-based. If they did not do this, they would be pissing in their own soup and Microsoft would never talk to them again.
Not to mention how much the babes love it. Reminds of this intern wearing his cool tricked-out watch. He couldn't wait to show it to me:
Intern:"And this button I rigged to pop my trunk. And this one I have fire-up my mp3 player wired to a 500GBHD mounted in the floor. This one turns the ignition."
Me: "Very cool dude. And you will never show this to any woman whose pants you might remotely want to get into."
Look, politics is easy. One of the basic rules is be careful how you puff your record, or, better yet, never do it at all. Let your friends do that instead. Gore made a goof. He probably deserves all the credit in the world for his early work promoting the Internet, but he goofed politically in what he said and it's never gone away. Guess what? It never will. These things stick and they stick to all politicians.
I believe is disliking them all equally. It sooths the mind.
Not that we don't discuss fringe theories from time to time
Lol!
And I question just what you mean by "deserves an article." Come'on. You know as well as I that news blurbs get posted regularly that make us go "wtf!"
I do appreciate your numerical giving of popular anniversaries, but the fact remains that many sources on the web were celebrating the 30th anniversary of the WOW Signal... all but/. Mind you, we are discussing the best ever example of ETI and not just some "fringe theory...."
And the editors reject so many worth-while stories. LoL! I can see it now:
[Takes hit off joint]
Editor: "Let's see [in a holding-breath-talking-way-that-pot-smokers-do], submissions, submissions, submissions.... Hrmm, 'Life found on mars'... nah [rejected], 'ancient silicon chip found in egypt'... nah [rejects], "ETI found 20 light years away"... nah [rejects]. Omg! e-drama among mac geeks! Yes!!! [accepts]...."
Cancer will be closer to being cured, and rats will be spared.
Which reminds me of that joke:
"Scientists have started using lawyers in experiments instead of rats for two reasons: number one, the scientists don't get as attached to the lawyers and two, there are some things not even a rat will do...."
Novell has shown themselves consistently to try to do the right thing 1) for their customers, 2) for open source in general, and 3) for their shareholders.
Supreme Being: Is it all ready? Right. Come on then. Back to creation. We mustn't waste any more time. They'll think I've lost control again and put it all down to evolution.
Evil: What sort of Supreme Being created such riffraff? Is this not the workings of a complete incompetent?
Baxi Brazilia III: But He created you, Evil One.
Evil: What did you say?
Baxi Brazilia III: Well He created you, so He can't be entirely...
Evil: [Blows Baxi to bits] Never talk to me like that again! No one created me! I am Evil. Evil existed long before good. I made myself. I cannot be unmade. *I* am all powerful!
I think God might have created us in space, but made us live on earth without us having any say. Honestly though, I cannot explain this any more scientifically than was done in the movie "Time Bandits":
Cartwright: But why, if that's the case, are you unable to escape from this fortress?
[Evil blows him up]
Evil: That's a good question. Why have I let the Supreme Being keep me here in the Fortress of Ultimate Darkness?
Robert: Because you...
Evil: Shut up, I'm speaking rhetorically.
I've decided to respond to all comments regarding God, ID, etc., with movie quotes from "Time Bandits." Here's another:
Evil: God isn't interested in technology. He cares nothing for the microchip or the silicon revolution. Look how he spends his time, forty-three species of parrots! Nipples for men!
Robert: Slugs.
Evil: Slugs! HE created slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?

I have to wonder why the Chinese did this. Why tip your hand?
To make another killer sub movie starring [a chinese] Sean Connery! Duh!
Not necessarily....
Blah, blah, blah,

Lighten up alice....
At least they accepted the story. Check my sig and journal.... I always felt like the smiley would beat ETI in a head-to-head submission....
It's /. Just say something about soviet russia. It all falls into place after that....
Watch the movie "Signs." M. Night Shamalalamamans own perspective into astronomy/eti and all that. Trust me. You'll never view mel gibson the same....

Yea, I saw this, like, a year ago. It took all of 2 seconds to scroll down and find a date going back over a year and a half ago.
