That said, since its an unprovable tenet, we may as well do the research anyway:)
Despite being an avid online gamer myself, I still very much enjoy single player games and purchase most of my games only for their single-player value. Playing online is still just an add-on to me.
I'm not alone either; I know several XBox 360 early adopters who still haven't played online at all because they have no desire to. There are a lot of gamers who simply do not crave playing games against other people online and would rather just "play a video game".
I'd like to point out that the quiz for kids was very accurate. They don't ever talk about "downloading music" but they do point out that students have rights vis-a-vis teachers when it comes to their own written works and such.
Personally, I'd let my kid take the quiz and then help them understand the nuances of the levy and personal copies of music, photocopying of pages of books for research, etc.
Actually, in a real democracy it often is very productive. One of the few things almost all governments agree on is "keeping the peace". In a democratic country, a large uprising demands attention (at least from SWAT teams) but often reminds politians which side their bread is buttered on.

You've actually bought that load? Of course you have a right to make a copy. You can make one for personal backups, you can also make the one on your PC (not just run it off the original CD). You are specifically told you have the right to install the software at all (make a copy).
In Canada and several other countries, you have the specific right to make a personal copy of music works for personal use.
In Canada and several other countries, broadcast media (radio/tv) are considered public and it is even legal to redistribute their content (so long as it is not modified in any way).
qmail works almost perfectly for me, except in how it handles bounces by default, but that's another issue.
With qmail-filter qmail supports in-line filtering of your messages through various software like virus scanners, etc. during the delivery process, but I'd like it earlier as well.

My wife only recently sold our N64 and game collection on Ebay (for a good return actually) knowing full well we'll buy a Revolution when it comes out (its a better name, sorry) and probably download all the games I loved again.
This happens because the problem is reported to the wrong person. Management knows nothing of the practicalities of security. Explain these problems to a security expert who does work for the bank or who knows those people. If you report something out of the blue to management as a nobody, you'll obviously be regarded with great suspicion.
That is to say, many fundamentalist christians believe that a creator designed a specific subset of life (and these were named by Adam as the story goes). There is no specific record of which animals/plants/fish these were, but at the very least it would be claimed there were people and some other creatures.
This does not mean that those who theologically hold to this position don't see evolution as a scientifically viable explanation for how we ended up with so many different types of mice (for example), simply that the first rodent was designed by a creator, not evolved from some other being.
PS, I'm inventing examples on the fly, but I hope you follow my logic.
Resolution is usually perceived in terms of "blockiness" by the viewer. The higher the resolution, the less one can perceive the individual pixels in other words.
Of course, the human eye only perceives a certain fraction of available data at any given distance (usually measured in degrees, somewhat like how a ray-tracer looks at things). For example, when I sit on my couch with my 15" laptop on a table in front of me, it is the same size to my eye as my 30" wide screen high definition TV is about 8' away. The LCD screen's 1024x768 resolution has more visible pixels at that distance (about two feet) than the 1080i TV four times farther away. As such, the resolution matters more at close distances where they eye can see better, not less. In fact, if a regular definition TV is far enough away, you couldn't perceive the difference between it and an HDTV of the same size right next to it.
That said, at 8' away like my TV is, I can just barely make out the pixelation on jagged edges at all at 1080i. I can most definately see the resolution difference between 24 at 720p and CSI at 1080i (much clearer).
PS, could your "small tv" even display more than 480 lines of resolution in the first place, and how far away was it? There's a reason TV stores have those charts showing how far away a given sized TV is designed to be viewed from.
Personally I think the USA is aiding terrorists world-wide on several fronts. The largest would be a) acting in such unilateral ways on an international level as to bring sympathy to terrorist causes and b) enacting the PATRIOT act and essentially helping the terrorists win their war against western freedoms.
Most christians do not deny that evolution happens at all, simply that it is the origin of all life on the planet.
Most "fundamentalist christians" would define micro-evolution as minor evolutionary changes within a species and macro-evolution as major inter-species changes (the "how did we evolve from..." question)
This is where Christians get hung up on the education of evolution -- not as a biological fact, but as the origin of life. Of course, nobody has yet to prove that it is, it is simply taken as the most scientifically viable explanation.
A being of much higher power creating everything we know in more-or-less its present state just for the hell of it (excuse the pun) isn't exactly provable or disprovable anyway.

More often than not, people who buy HDTV sets do so because its better than their existing set, then hook it up with S-Video cables not realizing they can't get HD signals over those cables.
Those are the same people who paid $10k+ for their HDTV and will pay up to $1k for a Blu-Ray player too.
I waited till a good quality HDTV was available for under $1k and will wait till the PS3 is around $250.
They should've just fixed the security hole. Its quite simple really; if the minimum for land auctions is $1000, then the validator should require the value to be over $1000 for auctions of type(land).
However if they left it on the original DVD and used software on the laptop to bypass the CSS restrictions to fast forward directly to where they wanted playback to begin (bypassing the intros), they'd be breaking their licensing agreement with the CSS patent holders.

That's not necessarily true at all. It stands to reason that Sony wanted to demo specific scenes from the movie and not simply play back the entire disc in either case. If this is the case, ripping a 15 minute chunk of the movie onto DVD+R would be a quick and dirty way of making the demo material easily accessible without violating their license for CSS by bypassing anti-skip functions on the real DVD.

Running at 1024x768 in 1995 was a hell of a lot better than NTSC is today. My 15" monitors can all do 1152x864 natively and that's not 17".
It may not be 1920x1080i like the HDTV set in my livingroom, but most PC screens are already able to do much much better resolutions than NTSC.
