Well, then you'll be happy to know that one of the major features of GW 2 that PC Gamer reported was many, many more persistent areas with many players interacting at once.
Those prices only apply to directly ordering from them. It is a trivial matter for a team to become sponsored by Speedo and then get large discounts, which accounts for the prices I listed. Now, I don't know about the full suit, because I've never personally known someone to use one. They're rare, and pretty much not that useful until the Big Ten or Olympic level, and in that case, the teams all have thousands to spend.
Bravo, sir, bravo. You've captured the essence of swimming perfectly. You can't do swimming for the popularity, or the hot chicks, because guess what? They don't exist, and even if they do, you don't have time for it. Swimming requires a passion for swimming, and if that isn't the reason a person does it, then they won't be swimming very long.
And congrats on getting to the Olympic Time Trials!
Just to give you a little hope, it's not the entire generation that's like this.
Speaking as a junior in a Chicago college prep, I'd have to say that everyone coming out of my school goes into law, medicine, the arts, the sciences, or engineering. The interest in science classes is palpable, and it is because teachers have found ways to make science interesting. Whether it's potassium in water, a standing wave in a spring, or a Van de Graf generator, almost every topic has a safe way of interacting with and seeing the process in action. My friends actually enjoy science classes, and think they're fun.
On the other hand, one of my close friends also happens to be very near to the top of the class, is taking AP Physics and multi-variable calculus, and he likes hip-hop. Beware generalization.
Of course it isn't. But by banning a significant amount of outside IPs, it would become noticable to the Chinese public that the internet has less people on it. Like I said, getting the Chinese to shut themselves off from the internet is not the goal. The goal is to do something. Just to make some noise, get people riled up. Make the powers the be pay attention.
Does the recent upping of Chinese censorship bug the hell out of anyone else? We've had probably 5 or 6 articles on it in the past month or so. We've seen all this outrage in the comments. Yet we still do nothing. We want to wait for our governments to do something, which they can't, or we say it's too big a problem. I doubt that. All these people, with all these skills? Why not just go onto chinese websites and troll about proxying and Tiananmen, free Tebet, and democracy? Why do we sit and do nothing? Why not, for the first time, use the slashdot effect for a purpose? Sure, we may only may shake things up, but at least it's something. Sure, China may end up banning outside IPs, but that'd basicly be shutting themselves off from the internet. Why not do something, if all it takes is 15 minutes of your time?
TV contains nothing for me. The marketing I see only serves to annoy me. And I'm a teenager, and I know my friends agree. So what about this group, which gets their music almost exclusively online? How do we fit into companies' marketing sceme?
We have them because they used to be useful, and are not yet done being purged from our genome. An example of a trait that is in mid-mutation. Wisdom teeth would be useful with a slightly different jaw shape, and a more vegetarian diet. Tails would have been useful in balance and whatever the hell else animals use them for, but once we moved to two legs, having an appendage in that position was no longer useful and even a liability.
Bravo, sir. That was wonderful. Mind if I drop a few more examples?
Wisdom teeth. In most cases, these cause extreme pain and damage if they aren't removed. Why would god give us these?
Tail bone. All it does is make sitting in certain ways painful. What's the point of god giving us one?
The poster below you is correct. In addition, the T-Shirt is not being sold by Penny-Arcade. It is being sold by Think-Geek. So is everyone on the internet suddenly liable for what everyone else on the internet does?
Of course, if they want to include ID, and be truly giving the students an open and diverse picture, they also have to be open to other "theories", such as that of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

The reason this group of Christians is silent is because they're Catholic (mostly). They're told to spread their beliefs peacefully, and not to force them upon other people. Pope John Paul II said that evolution should be taken as true. Catholic priests preach that most of the Bible is metaphor. Bush, and most Christian fundimetalists, are Protestants, after the great Protestant tradition started when the Puritans set up the Massachusets bay colony, of forcing beliefs on their nieghbors.
Now, don't think I'm saying that all Protestants are repressive, because I'm not, and they aren't. But those who are repressive, in the sciences, generally are Protestants. Those people, like Islamic fundamentalists, have perverted their religion to justified something it frowns upon.

Mod parent up, please.

I believe it is a reference to something from earlier in the series. Harry's parents lived in a town called Godric's Hallow.
The cardinal rule of EVE is this: let the buyer beware.
I love how the all those responses quoted Douglas Adams.

Fastskins cost between $30 and $50 US, depending on size and cut. They're really not that expensive, as they do last about a year.

This is true. I was trying to make the point that not everyone in our generation is apathetic. And it's not one of the lab schools.

Excellent diction, sirrah!
It's a private group. The Canadian government can claim they don't have the power to interfere.
Of course it isn't. But by banning a significant amount of outside IPs, it would become noticable to the Chinese public that the internet has less people on it.

Already down. Firefox claims it can't establish a connection.
Subliminal messages do not exist, whatever the Internet claims. It has been known to be wrong.

The only hand that Catholics believe God had in evolution was starting it, much as a clock maker might start a clock ticking.
