It's bad enough to have my nationality associated with such backwards mythology maquerading as science, but to have in my beloved Kentucky is even worse.
Shoot... now it'll be another 50 years until we can shed our image inside the US. Just for the foreign readers, it should be known that "Louisville is a cultural oasis in the barren wastelands of the Midwest", (originally stated by the UMass Math Dept head, a very wise man)
Remember in 1993 all those announcements about Windows 4.0 being way better than OS/2?
Remember that Windows 4.0 morphed into Win95, and looked strangely like OS/2, right down to the color of the default desktop? (OK, probably not, since it seemed the me and 2 other people in the world used OS/2.)
My guess is that Longhorn will come out as WinSix (to be confused with WinSex) and have a hideous brushed-metal look.
Y'all ought to check out how CAWG seems to applaud the death of any and all MS Antitrust work. In fact, it appears to be a group founded by the Reagan administration.
Too dangerous. Imagine all the folks trying to look like John Cleese w/o the coordination, alternating between kicking the grandma next to them and falling on the ground and being trampled. It would be pretty funny until the first decapitation, tho.

The beauty is that it knew that 'hamburg' meant Hamburg, Germany, and not hamburg from Mickey D's
I suspect that dogs are looked on as "A Man's Best Friend". Besides, if it were a mule, folks would start calling it a Robot Ass...

I'm sure the insurance companies, marketing folks, and others with a buck to make would be on this much faster than the government.
Hmm. The NRA's selective quoting at work, again. The second amendment reads:
"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. "
Now, I'm not sure what part of "well regulated militia" this thing falls into.

Sounds like a shill to me.
I can't even imagine the MSCE's trying to get people out of an elevator which has had a fault error... "oops... cut the wrong cable"

- mailed 1/2 the folks a prediction that stock X would rise, mailed the other 1/2 the opposite.
- threw away the 1/2 who ended up with the incorrect prediction
- repeated until there were a few folks left who had gotten 10 correct predictions (either 4 or 8 people, depending on n)
- asked the remaining folks for investments.
- split with the cash
Now imagine stock analysts all making predictions. Eventually there will be a star.
