accident rate have been dropping for decades, cell phone use has skyrocketed, so why are accidents rates still dropping??? if it's an actual crisis and not just a moral panic, why are accident rate not going up???
I have one in my van, we don't use it all the time, but we do use it for longer trips (2 hours+). It's just one more option (including books, travel games, talking) that makes trips a little less boring. We live in western Canada travel more than 40,000 km's per year, for work, sports, visiting family, vacations,...
Sitting in vehicle for 8 hours of driving over a weekend, is a lot to ask from little kids.
I hope this doesn't spread, we need all the heat from the sun we can get up here in Canada,...
Trouble is legislators/regulators tend to follow the leader and not think for themselves.
Using this kind of glass in colder climates would be a big mistake.
For example today at 8 degrees Celsius, my car interior was warm when I got in it a little bit ago, with all frost melted off.
The problems due to y2k were for the most part well understood and easily fixed. Also even if left unfixed they could not possibly have caused a meltdown of our society.
The main thing we should have learned from y2k was we should avoid the massive overstatement of the risk and just plain fabrication that went on in the lead up to the big day.
As we can see from today's media that is no longer a problem,...
for example, you mentioned the polar bear issue, the actual numbers indicate (something like) only 5 of 17 populations of polar bears are decreasing, other are stable or increasing, which is what one would expect from any species. So why the call for endangered status?
Also the polar bears did not die off during the medieval warm period so why are we the panic now?
Questioning the conclusions of science is a critical part of good science. When we start to discourage open and transparent discussion based on fact we all lose.
This is what I do, it's just really easy, low maintenance and dependable. Also I am 100% sure google does a better job of uptime and backup than I will ever have time to do.
Oh, and if I am really concerned about privacy, I encrypt, which is what I do regardless of whether the file I feel is sensitive is on my server or someone elses...
The point is that (as stated in the cnet article) the A/V companies worked with the vendor to ensure their A/V software would not detect the rootkit. They knew in advance what it was, what it did, and they know better. They really dropped the ball.
Then once the vulnerabilities due to the malware were widely known, they did not respond. Can you remember the last time we had evidence of a widespread vulnneability and the A/V makers did not have a warning and a removal tool/procedure available within 24 hours??
A better analogy than yours would be; in advance an arsonist gets the fire department to agree not to respond to a fire at your house, and then starts a fire at your house...
There are only two kinds of people,

I think some perspective required.
Lennon tryed to improve humanity, he was a poet, singer, philospher.
Try comparing Carmack to Ringo if you must have a Beatles reference.
Used it for quite a while, easy to organize your username/passwords into groups
I would be lost without it.
Allows me to use very strong passphrases, but not have to remember them.
currently I have 2 different db's with ~50 entries each, one for work, one for home.
Highly recommended
We are currently starting to get issues with compatibility between office 2k and office 2k3. 2k3 see some 2k docs as corrupt and will not open or recover them. The fix is to open said doc in OO and then save a.doc,...
More or less, I get up, turn on lights, shower, eat, drive to work, turn on lights, turn on equip., turn off lights, drive home, turn on lights, eat, turn off lights, sleep

Why would it matter if I was on daylight savings or not?
I would if I had mod points.
This is healthy open discussion about the future of an open source project.
I seem to remember the original developers of what became Firefox started that project because they were unhappy with the direction of the mozilla browser at the time.
This is not instability or trouble, it is part of the evolutionary process of open software...

1. I write a.Net application.
2. Microsoft rewrites Windows, ejects the old API but keeps.Net (newer version) compatibility. (it's a thin wrapper after all)
Application has to be re-written due to basic incompatibilities using newly purchased version of Visual Studio and latest.NET runtime...

Everyone one I know (except me of course) practices shill bidding when they sell on eBay. This is a very common practice that you need to watch for at real auctions, but there is really no way to check on eBay.
I would be suprise that anything has ever been sold without the seller bumping the price by shill bidding, or maybe everyone in the world is honest.
not too expensive, uses funky math to generate schedules for physicians.

There many are groups in Canada's prairie provinces (Saskatchewan, Manitoba, yes even Alberta) trying to get ethanol plants built. They are trying to catch up to states like minnesota, the dakotas. On a recent trip through the Dakota's nearly every truck stop sold bio-diesel.
Yes I certainly have done research in this area, that is brake stands when I was a kid, with a wide variety of vehicles, from pickups, to honda civics, to motorcycles.
The trick is to run the engine rpms up against the torque convertor(or dumpt the clutch) with the brakes on and slowly release the brakes so one tire will break loose and spin. Press harder on the brakes and the brake stand stops... It's easier to do with more power and lousy brakes, ie. '69 chevelle. A new car with limited power like less than 250hp and modern brakes = easy to overpower engine and stop the car.
