  1. Re:A thought. on Simpsons Actors on Strike · · Score: 1

    "You can't get rid of the voice actors without killing a part of your show."

    Bullshit. I, myself, can do at least half the voices of the show. Just get some imitators.

    *AVERAGE* person? What planet do you live on?

    These people just do voices, fer shit's sake.

    "Here in the US"

    I don't think you live in the same US I do. We don't see ourselves as infallible (remember VN?), we don't believe slavery never happened, we study Wounded Knee, Trail of Tears, etc., we are aware of the Shah and others.

    We're aware they all happened. We're also aware that each and every child is not *guilty* of their father's sins. Just correct and move on. Then keep correcting and moving on.

    And fer the love of man, don't hold your neighbor responsible for what happened 400 friggin' years ago.

  4. Re:"Communism" is a tricky term on SCO Changes Tune, Again: Linux Now Just a Riff on Unix · · Score: 1

    "Marxists defined communism as the dissolution of the state, elimination of private property, and the leveling of all class barriers."

    That's maybe the way they define it, but that's not the way they've tried to implement it.

    If you want to find out what they *really* think the system is, look toward their implimentation. It's always at the point of a gun (heavily defined class barriers).

    "French healthcare is good and doctors are well paid."

    Ummm. Wasn't France the place where virtually all the medical profession was on vacation during a heat wave?

    Bad example on your part. American doctors are well paid too.

    "of course this isn't true"

    Could you then perhaps suggest another? Before you do, perhaps you might educate yourself. Feudalism and fascism are political structures. Mercantilism is "mercantile practices or spirit, commercialism".

    My guess is your list is more of the same ignorance. You sound like a freshman in college who hasn't learned to even use a dictionary properly.

  7. Re:They are open and believe me, the scientist pay on Nature Debate on Open Scientific Journals · · Score: 2, Interesting

    "Anyone can go to any public university library and make copies of articles from journals."

    Really? Do *you* know any universities with a library near West Plains, Missouri?

    Ummmm. There *was* no Y2K problem. Or perhaps you didn't hear that *nothing* happened?

    Apparently you are unaware that a great bulk of the DNA code is shared betwixt plant and animal.

    Don't be stupid. Several hundred years from now it will be like the street sweepers of today. Get a grip and drop the hissy fit.

  11. Re:Depends on your definitions on Broadband Access Leading to Internet Breakdown? · · Score: 1

    Wrong, chum.

    A *model* UN is a trivial thing. Real, money-depending e-mails are not. DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT, delete *MY* e-mails. They are not your property to do so with. Would you do the same with the USPD? M'thinks not.

    By the way, my ISP used SpamAssissin. It doesn't work worth a crap. Flagged only half the spam, and flagged about 1/4 the non-spam. This forced me to have to *read* the e-mail anyway. Net gain? Irritation at SpamAssassin.

  12. Re:learn some facts. on Melting Europa · · Score: 1

    "The only way to truly know if people will have an adverse affect to flounder+tomato genes (Calgene's brilliant invention)..."

    It's no the genes that have the adverse affect, chum. It's what they *express*.

    This makes your "bad, bad, bad" based upon personal ignorance. Not good.

    Next time, hop on your bicycle and pedal out to Ohio, California, or wherever whatever you want is grown/made and drag it back yourself.

    Your hero didn't even address all the errors and outright lies pointed out about his movie 'documentary'. He's still a liar, chum.

    France is a country who's economy is tanking, due in large part to the extreme socialistic tendencies it promotes. The rest of the world would do well to ignore any ideas they come up with.

    No, he didn't, I'd bet. His point was he had *matured*. Your post indicates you *haven't*. MA is *not* about kicking an age-old bullies ass, it's about being able to but *not* doing it.

    What a butt load.

    The radical enviro's have been found to be just as large a lying group as the radical manufacturo's.

    Perhaps you're just too young, but I've *watched* the environment get cleaner and cleaner. And it *wasn't* primarily because of the radical left. It was because - in the long run - it's *cheaper* to be clean.

    When was the last time *you* saw a river burning?

    No. Only *within 3 months of publication* are you required to file said copies.

    "Note that this is not a requirement to have a copyright on your works in general"

    You have a *copyright* immediately "from the time the work is created in fixed form", whether you file or not.

    If you don't publish, you needn't file, but you *still* own the copyright.

    By the way 'computer programs and most "compilations" may be registered as "literary works"'.

    No shit. And *that* from a man who basically ignored his family.

    Wait a minute. permissiveness = permission to ignore.
