It's a global economy buddy, the USA consumes 378 million barrels per day. Increasing oil prices in the middle east affect our prices too even if we import 500k per day.
Anonymous Coward, you overestime their "power." I doubt there are millions of unique 4chan visitors, let alone millions willing to tie up AT&Ts customer service lines. Let's not even go into the fact that only 15% of those "millions" even use AT&T for their broadband.
Isn't 15 just about the average of 13-19?? (No it's 16)
Regardless, laborers at that age group are inherently disposable, who cares if they whine? There are other teens looking for jobs too.
Do the/b/tards scare you? Do you actually think they could do anything of significance?? Most of them will just write strongly worded opinions backed by uninteresting and brain numbing 4chan memes.
I thought NASA was pretty damned certain of where they were heading over the next few years, the only uncertain part was what the next NASA administrator would try to change.

The OP Mentioned Iraq War 1 and 2, that's a nearly 20 year timeframe to look at.
Maybe about 20-30cents a gallon at most?

I don't think AT&T would care too much of the opinion of a group of 15 year olds.
Some people want fast computers to do work on... Like CAD/FEA/Video Editing/3D Modelling/Scientific Research/Code Development/etc.
Besides the fact, that while someone might get 120fps in crysis today, they will be barely breaking 30fps when the next game comes out.
The point of getting an i7 920 is to overclock it to 3.6-4ghz+... At that point it blows the Phenom II out of the waters.
Because almost everyone who runs with customfirmware just downloads the game files via torrent?
Most consoles are sold at a loss and makeup this loss through licensing fees for games.

You kidding? Have you ever tried putting your hand in freezing water, and then placing it in mildly warm water? It burns like hell.
Temperature changes are what cause a lot of pain, especially in structures.
The problem is that the ISPs don't pay by the GB for what they use, they pay for bandwidth.
Are you kidding? NYC has one of the best transit systems in the whole country. Once they switch to automated switching it will be even better.
Stop BSing, Ret palladins aren't the kings of pvp, DKs/Hunters/Holy Paladins are.
And what the hell do you expect when a Paladin wielding a giant 2 hander comes to attack your cloth covered ass? You expect it to not hurt?
P.S. Mages/Locks/Hunters Hurt.
Even worse... Cyberdyne is working on HAL... HAL is Skynet... God help us all!
Unless you thought that ridiculously large amount of money was a prank and you didn't think you could actually spend it.
If anyone around has seen an 84 year old HDD they would probablly be too busy telling the damned kids to get off the damned lawn.
That's what she said!
What's a Floppy?
The "specs" of a spacecraft are rather useless unless you plan on building one... what's important is the research done.
I heard they did something like this in Star Wars too.
Not at all, it was a reference to a movie, Dr. Strangelove.
You need to grow up.
Yes, very easy to turn off your roommates/suitemates!
Wow... Your computing experience sounds like a real pain in the ass.
Apparently, you have a time machine I would like access to.
