This post reminds me of story a few people have told me. They say someone put on a bunny suit, and then walked into Intel's Rio Rancho fab, and walked out undected with a bunch of gold. I don't know if its true, but just the idea makes me giggle.
The Libertarian and Green candidates not only agreed to be interviewed directly by a random nerd website (/.), but gave well thought out answers to the questions.
Well being that Badnarik is a computer programer, I think he might qualify as a nerd himself. From the Badnarik webpage:
" Became a Computer Programmer in 1977 for Commonwealth Edison at their nuclear power plant in Zion, Illinois; taught control room operators about computers. Was promoted to Senior Software Engineer for their Braidwood Nuclear Simulator project, which he managed from '82-'85 (his favorite job assignment, basically a $6-million "computer game" for which he was totally responsible).
Moved to Montebello, CA, and held a "secret security" clearance at Northrop to work on the Stealth Bomber simulator, '85-'87.
Relocated to San Luis Obispo, CA, in 1987 as a System Administrator and computer trainer at PG&E's Diablo Canyon nuclear plant; spent 10 years as a member of the Applied Technology Services Team writing software and traveling the state installing real-time data-collection servers to their remote power stations; was an instructor for hundreds of employees teaching state-of-the-art systems being installed.
Moved to Austin, TX, in 1997 where he was a programmer and a trainer for Evolutionary Technologies International. He quickly became the Senior Trainer and began traveling across the U.S., and to Canada, England and Australia, as instructor, consultant and "high-tech diplomat."
Became an independent computer consultant in 2001, but began to turn his attention (and talents as an instructor and communicator) to teaching his 8-hour "Introduction to the Constitution" class."
I disagree. We do want every crackpot involved. Otherwise, it becomes very esy to exclude new parties.
Exactly. Until all of these candidates (and more) are on stage this whole election process will continue to be a sham: David Cobb, John Kerry, Michael Peroutka, Ralph Nader, Michael Badnarik, Walt Brown, Róger Calero, George Bush, and John Parker.
The latest copy (number 48, page 24) states that it takes 2 to 4 years to recoup the electricity required to produce photovoltaic cells. Fortunately, they do on average last about 20 years, so you do get an 'energy gain'.
Keeping in mind that 2 to 4 Canadian years more or less equal an American month.;-)
I've always thought (note to Secret Service: as thought experiment only, never acted on).
Under Article 19, title 84, Sec. 666 of the patriot act you are guilty of a Thought Crime. Please follow the yellow line to your friedly neighborhood termination center where you will amuse yourself to death.
I hope you cleaned the knife between the first and second tasks. I don't think there's an attachment for curing food poisoning.
Yes there is. Just use the built in cutting tool to slice open the body and bleed it till all the evil toxins and demons exit.

How does X-raying luggage violate your privacy - unless your wife (or you) has a collection of steel dildoes in there?
Its not the dildos I'm worried about, its the plastic vibrator that turns on by mistake that would irritate me.
