  1. Re:Unions bad, mmmkay? on IT Unions? · · Score: 1

    And remember, in the US Bush has just cancelled the OSHA ergonomics standard

    If you read the standard that Clinton put in it was for home office workers. It would have required home inspections for ergonomics in the home. How would you like somebody coming over to your house to inspect it whenever they wanted? Not alot of people (expecialy where I work) were happy about it. I didn't want Big Brother coming into my home and telling me that I had to get a new workstation (it wouldn't be paid for by my company) so that I would be compliant. Anything else that I have to add about unions has already been said. I don't like the concept, and I will not work in a union shop ever!

  2. Re:The penalty is too light... on Anti Spamming Act 2001 Proposed · · Score: 1

    Here is a good use for "Carnivore" or what ever polite name that they gave it. This should be able to grab all the evidence they need on Spammers.

    These stats help advertisers market products to you more efficently. It saves them money, and you get the see ads that might encourage you to buy something that is really useful to you.

    I don't know about you, but I haven't bought anything off of an ad that I have seen (unless it was something at Fry's Electronics). So ads are trying to get me to buy something? That'll be the day. I don't like ads (TV, Radio, Spam, Telemarketing, etc.) If I want to buy something, I'll go out and get the information myself. I don't need buisnesses telling me that they are the best (I'll make that decision)

    I would hope the contract is a little more fair.

    Do you really think that the record lables would want to give more money to the artist? I think that they would be thinking that it would be anti-capilitist.

  5. Re:Not just filters, here is the legality of it al on Librarians To Sue Over Mandatory Censoring · · Score: 1

    I don't feel any of my rights as a public citizen will be taken away or violated

    NEW LAW. Anybody with internet access in the United States MUST install this goverment approved filter. Only "politically correct" (govt. approved) websites will be allowed to be viewed.

    I'm sorry that you feel just because you have access at home that you won't be censored at home (remeber that excellent piece of egislation CDA & CDAII). I'm sorry, but nobody in the government is my friend.

    I hope that you know how to think. I know that most of the greenhouse gasses that are spewing out into the atmosphere are from alot of the 3rd world countries that the "civilized" world allows to do so that they can play catch up with them.

  7. Re:It does not matter. on Sprint's Wireless Broadband - And What A TOS! · · Score: 1

    Well, I actually hope that spirnt will fold. They still owe me $100 for a cell phone that I didn't keep over the 14 day period (but I got charged a cancellation fee. This was back in august. Oh that reminds me, I have to call them back and see if they have processed it.

  8. Re:You can curtail snail spam on Spammer Pleads Guilty · · Score: 1

    There is a reason that she got all of the credit card offers. If she get another credit card (if she applies), she has to pay. This is because of the fact that she can't file for bankruptcy for another 7 or 10 years (sorry can't remeber which)

  9. Re:4th branch on Apogee(r) Bans Negative Reviews? · · Score: 1

    There is a branch like you just described. It's called the Supreme Court. Unfortunatly, they don't have the time to be looking at all the laws that get passed.

  10. Re:It's better for us if they use NT on Linux in the Military · · Score: 1

    What are you talking about??? The military is evil???? I guess that you don't realise that we need the military to at least support your freedom of speech? I don't understand people like you, other then that you might have not served a day in your life.
