Sony doesn't care if you don't play your PS2 - you've already paid them for it. Don't buy music or games and cancel your EQII accounts, but you're only hurting yourself if you 'boycott' by not using something already purchased.
I believe the comment was meant to imply that if you're hosting a party, you'll save money by providing less alcohol to your guests. Or perhaps you're supposed to be the morality police for your friends and not let them get wasted.
However, champagne flutes are pretty consistent in size and shape, and sparkling wine is the traditional drink.
3) Think about advertising. Consumer products such as foods are named by easy to pronounce and remember monikers. A cheesy snack called MCSAF (my cheesy snacks aren't freetos) or some such unpronounceable name will fail to sell every single time. Every single time.
What about Schlotsky's, Ghirardelli, Porsche, or Smuckers (they even admit it's a bad name in their advertising)?
People will get used to whatever they're given. Windows is not all that intuitive. When I switched from DOS to Windows the first time, I just sat there going, 'Now what?' until I gave up and asked someone where the command line was. I suppose if I were more adventurous, I would have randomly clicked things until something did what I wanted, but I was afraid to break it, so I did nothing.
As was mentioned earlier, it doesn't have to do with 'easier' or 'better', but 'more recognizable.'

The United States was not founded on principles of privacy but on principles of life. That we are to be protected from others (protected from ourselves even?). Move somewhere else if you want to have your privacy protected.
Whoa! And here I thought the US was founded on the principles of freedom. I have a feeling that much of the Bill of Rights wouldn't have been necessary had the founding fathers thought we couldn't think for ourselves.
Now....which one was it that restricted unreasonable search and seizure?
You may need someone to 'protect' you and think for you, but I, for one, do not.

Actually, you can drive all you want on private property without a state issued license...
So, if my domain is hosted out of Hong Kong and I have a mail account set up there, am I subject to their laws?
well, I always jump straight to page 7 since that's a lucky number
What about cell phones? Both users pay for the time they're on the call...
