Well since the second is defined based upon atomic oscillation now,
secÂond 1 (sknd)
n.
1. Abbr. sec.
a. A unit of time equal to one sixtieth of a minute.
b. The time needed for a cesium-133 atom to perform 9,192,631,770 complete oscillations. See Table at measurement.
I can only see this as less accurate!
I'm sure they are counting every little thing, but still!
I seem to recall a similar stat a few years back where Honda and Toyota had ~22 problems per 100 cars to top the list, and the worst by far was Cadilac with something in the high 80s. They were probably tracking differsnt types of problems with that list.
People don't buy music CD just because it was produced by so-and-so corporation, but they buy because they like the songs
Agreed! Same with movies/TV shows , so I really don't understand the need to self advertise on DVDs. For instance, if you buy a TV show, why do I have to see the company logo as soon as I enter the DVD, and again before each episode? It's this type of thing that makes me rip it to hard drive, or download it (because it's quicker).
> As far as they're concerned, the moment a Canadian artist gets a #1 hit in the US, they cease to be "authentically Canadian" by virtue of having "sold out". Now they're in a position of power & authority, and aren't shy about using it to make everyone else listen to "better" (in their opinion) music.
One example of this is Bryan Adams - his single "Everything I Do" from Robin Hood was co-wrote by a non-Canadian, and thus is not considered "Canadian content" by the CRTC.

Well - jailbreaking is legal now, right?
Funny, but I expect they won't even get it!

Maybe that's what they're after.
I don't know how to use the three shells!
Yeah, I saw a documentary about that. However, there was a terrible side effect, in that all resturants became Taco Bells!
... and implanted in the body.
Of course they could have just left their phone at home, or with a friend. How can that be proof?
I don't see how they can do that. Callcentre turnover rates are probably on the order of two weeks.

"Suspicious or coded writings, use of code word sheets, cryptic ledgers, etc" To the average citizen, most programming languages would fit this.
Even ASCII is a code. So we're all in that box.
Or if you want to keep going for a couple od weeks, change it to 100.0.*
No. This only works on people.
"News sites" hosted on port 82 set off some alarm bells.
It's Europe so they're using metric!
It's so transparent, that you can't see it. Simple really!

Yes, but you can't hear it scream!
but the average person will probably stick with the faces.
