Why is it not educational? Just because it is not Classical music does not mean there is nothing to be learned culturally or artistically. If you are downloading for the purpose of discovering new music/art I would consider it educational (to a point).
my mom fed me brocolli when i was a baby. Its one of my favorite vegetables. Try to get friends of mine to eat it, however, hasnt been so successful.
My Mom asked us once what vegetables we disliked the least so she could include them more often. I answered corn or something even though I actually liked brocolli. I figured if I actually liked it then it couldn't be a vegetable.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires all public companies to maintain records for three years. Six months is a problem.
Unless the GP's employer is in the financial/accounting field I do not believe this Act applies.
As long as the retention policy is documented and enforced you can pretty much go as short as you want (unless of course there is a requirement from an outside agency ).
I maintain the ISO 9000 and environmental compliance documents and records at work so I know a little...
A few years of government "service", then he goes to Haliburton and rakes in the big bucks
I hate to defend Dick Cheney, but saying he only has a few years of government service under his belt is flat-out false.
Exactly, if you dislike him because you think he just coasted or something you are completely missing the point. The scary part about him is that he has worked so hard to get all these connections that he is basically selling to the highest bidder.

Don't worry your nuts. Energizer lobbiests are drafting legislation right now to put a stop to this dangerous technology.
The draft bill says, simply, that the FCC will 'have authority to adopt regulations governing nuclear battery apparatus necessary to control the indiscriminate redistribution of electrons.'
Yeah, that's it exactly.
"Oh no, the RIAA isn't going to give me their maximum donation of $3,000 (or whatever the hell it is now)! I might lose my re-election!"
The RIAA is an association of companies (the second A). Each member company can give individually to whatever the max limit is. That is a lot of cash my friend.
That's a very ignorant statement. Hitler, Stalin, Mao - can you name any "worse" capitalist? Can you show me any modern society of people who have shown progress by adhering to non-capitalist ideology?
Hate to break it to you guy, but Hitler _WAS_ a capitalist.
Also, Germany was a democracy and Hitler was voted into office.
Design patents are very easy to, pardon the pun, design around.
Take a look at those drawings. The thing is just a flat rectangle with rounded edges! It's going to be hard to design a tablet computer while designing it to look unlike a tablet.
Have Linux "zealots" ever put up personal info on how to find Darl McBride's mother, with pictures of her home and the number on her mailbox so any stalker can find her readily?
Perhaps not his mother but his (and his wife's) home address and phone # were posted on Slashdot. It led to the harrasment that they were bitching about in the first place.

I'm really not seeing how you can see the analogy as anything other than ridiculous
The evidence affirms sound economic theory, which predicts that prohibition of mutually beneficial exchanges is doomed to failure
Try reading it again, without the pendantism...

true story...
Just wait until I figure out how to reverse the polarity on my caloric intake manifold, and boy will you be sorry.
Wait, that's easy, just turn 30.
Oh wait.....you meant the _other_ direction.....

Bush is the first president to routinely destroy large quantities of documents.
Are you fucking kidding me. Ever heard of a little scandal called Watergate??!?!
Sorry for the outburst but people actually modded this up.
the policy was going to be that if people needed to keep an email they should print it out and file it.
Ahh yes, the paperless office....
The U.S. owns the space the space above the U.S.. I guess the question would be how far up do you consider U.S. airspace.
Besides, this is a good thing. It was only a matter of time until somebody started doing it...
I oppose a woman's right to choose because I feel that a child's right to live supercedes that.
So in other words you support your right to choose for the woman.
as can be seen by the narrowing gap between the rich and the poor.
You mean this gap?? If by narrowing you mean widening I guess....
Yeah, but if you have a Pentium IV or a Geforce 6800 you'd better be one hell of an athlete already.
At this point you might be better off running the computer from wall power and using the bike to run the 16 cooling fans.

judge for yourself...
No, not quite, 60 Minutes doesn't turn around and say at 110 something street, you will find this. That's the boundary that got crossed
Seriously, some of the addresses read like friggin yahoo driving directions!

I don't get it. I thought sys-con caved on the O'Gara thing. Why did they decide to resign?
Hey how come there is no antivirus software needed on unix platforms?
Actually, the first internet worm invented was on UNIX.
Here is an interesting chronology
Seriously though, is it just me or has this thread been dominated my incredibly clueless posts moderated highly (even moreso than usual).

I agree. Without wanting to turn this into a flame war, if the foreskin wasn't meant to be there, evolution would have removed it by now.
Yeah, just like our tonsiles and appendix!

Some of us believe that patenting math _is_ evil because it slows the progress of the sciences. But of course, that is just an opinion.

Out of curiousity (go ahead, mod me offtopic), why do you consider the LP 'insane'?
They believe in an omnipotent invisible hand. Is that not insane?
