We all seem to have this wierd idea that the artists have a say in these matters. I am sorry to inform you, the Riaa, record labels and the rest of the Music Mafia use the artists, not the other way around. They sign new and unsuspecting artists to contracts, you know the type of contract, the kind that makes your ass hurt. After you sign thier contract, there is nothing you can do about it.
The Music Mafia has everyone by the nuts, Goverment, Artists, and the unsuspecting public. So sure ya, an artist can flee, but most likely without; any music created upto the point they left, thier name (because the label owns that too), and in some cases an artist could be blocked from producing/creating/performing for a few years (punishment if you try to run from the Mafia).
The artists listen to music too, and want the same fair use as us, except Riaa Poster-children like Metallica because with thier "Gold Plated Ferrari's" they just don't care about anyone else.
It is one thing to send a probe to look at Mars, and another to see it with human eyes. We can send probes to Mars to understand the landscape and enviroment, but until we step foot on Mars and expirience it, it will always just be pictures on a TV.
Let me put it this way, I can give you pictures of Mexico, the beaches, the water, the sky, and even a sunset, but in the end, you won't know Mexico until you go there.
I prefer T.M.F.I. Just gets the point across with the extra letter.. Too Much F*ck*ng Information, and for those who would like to complain, I'd rather elude to a swear then swear...
There is alot in a name, and given the names I see on WOW all the time CmdrTaco is alot better then Cailis.... Heck even I am most likley against the EULA, Hornsolo, yes a one-horned Tauren Druid... (Leave Moobacca out of this...)
Taco, I hope that the media coverage, and the help of some that frequent this site that they re-instate your name.

Working for a Large Western Canada ISP, we usually get raises of 0-3%, the cost of living in Calgary goes up by 5-7% yearly.. It is the funniest thing I ever expirienced, although I am getting a raise, it always feels like a paycut...
I am told I am the cheapest rate here in Calgary, I charge a 2L of Coke (cola), and lunch/dinner. It works out great for my Friends and Family, and I feel as though I have been paid for my time.
With the market becoming more competitive, your company is probably trying to cut corners, hence the shafting of it's employees.
IMHO if a service is going to be used for business purposes then it makes sense that the Company helps pay for it.
Thats all we need, hrm I think this guy is a spy, lets spy on him... No privacy, nothing. This concerns me. I thought all the proceedures were put into place to protect ones freedoms, and privacy?
a simpler fix for that, after you remove new.net or newnetdomains, (win9x) is to remove dialup networking (controlpanel/add remove programs/windows setup/communications) without restarting, then remove HKEY_Local_Machine\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Winsock2 after add dialup networking again and restart. I have found this to fix 99% of newdot net related issues.
I found My search bar to be the worst, and not fun to remove, although it is found with many adware removal tools, it has a tendancy to come back again, and again...
I have found over the last two years that I rely heavily on google.ca, and slashdot for all my information needs. I'll look up a movie on the net and read reviews before going to the theatre. One little accident (ARPANET) and now it has become part of our lives, as much as a TV, or a telephone.
What I find sad is the "Industries" (MPAA, RIAA...) are forgetting the most important part of commerce, give the customers what they want. I am sad to say movies IMHO have gone way down hill, almost as if the movie industry wants to give us flashy special effects, and no substance, almost like music these days... But then let them dig thier graves....

Can you do us a favor and find out why the mainstream news outlets are not covering a grassroots movement to impeach GWB and Dick Cheney?

.mob would be a good undernet TLD. but maybe .mbl would be better. :P
When in Dobt
I would think it would be more like y2k4, but I could be wrong. :)

Now they have caught him, maybe it will make others think twice about doing the same thing, then again maybe not... :
