I wouldn't say that Google ignores their competition. Last I checked, when you search for an address in google.com, it allows you to view a map of the place in google maps, mapquest, or Yahoo Maps. That seems more like accepting that competition exists than merely ignoring it. This makes me think that they aren't going to be anticompetitive, for the most part.
It might be me, but I'd rather have methane in my bowels than having to take a dump every 10 minutes. Also, wouldn't your redesign make it so that there's a constant flow of gases outwards? I think I'm fine with my bowels the way they are.
It could be done in a current context, also. Perhaps something like paperboy, with the gideons, or something throwing bibles towards houses. To me, as a Christian, I think a game is a game, and I'll play Christian Games, only if they are good. Same goes for music (Personal favorite Christian band: Five Iron Frenzy).
As a side note, I believe that many Christians (and perhaps other religions, also) take things way too seriously. I wouldn't force people to believe what I believe, because I've had people try to do that to me. I realize that people have differing beliefs and values. A whole lot of problems that are caused by religion could be solved with some understanding./rant
Come on, you missed a perfectly good pun. You say "pinching a loaf" instead of "dropping a log"? How can you pass that up? I guess that prevents confusion with keystroke logging, but really, how dumb are people on this site?
Wow, you saying that Gator would be neutered gave me a funny picture in my head, involving Bill Gates and a surgical kit. That was slightly disturbing.
I think it wouldn't work, because Microsoft wouldn't conform to existing standards, and therefore would have to reinvent the human. Being that Gates is already part of the existing standard, he would not qualify.
I understand the confusion that may occur. It seems that most of the time, the only people that reply to you do so to flame you, correct you, or disagree with you. It's pretty sad, actually.
I haven't used a Mac in quite some time, so I was unaware that they had gone that far in supporting it. I don't call that well-supported, either. I was under the assumption that there wasn't a major operating system that installed IPv6 by default. Before others jump on me, I am not excluding Linux as a major operating system, just that not all distros support it by default. Anyway, thanks for the info on the iBook. Do you happen to know when this was introduced?
Also, not to be a jerk, but it was intentional that I basically stated your point, which is why I said that I agree.
I agree that it's not easy to set up. That's one of the reasons I said that it wasn't any harder than setting up IPX/SPX. It's not something I would expect any layperson to be able to do without step-by-step instructions, but it's still available for those of us who might know how to work it. If IPv4 wasn't set up to use DHCP by default, most people wouldn't be able to set it up. The technology is there, it's just that it's not being used.
Actually, you can get the IPv6 stack directly from Microsoft, so it isn't 3rd party software. For Windows XP, it shows up in the list of available protocols to install for your network. It's not the default, but not any harder to install than IPX/SPX. With Windows 2000, they don't make it easy, you have to search for it on their site, but it's there.
Fries just don't seem to taste as good with napkins, in my opinion. I do think it would raise the fiber content, though. Might be a good advertising campaign for McDonalds new health campaign. Same taste, more fiber. Has a nice ring to it. Get some of that fruit and nut salad alongside it, or something.
If the purpose of this is to prevent data from leaving the company, wouldn't it have to be done within the company? I mean, if they're taking the data and sending it out of the country for them to see if they can find anything questionable in it, isn't that just asking for trouble?
All you have to do is slightly change the atmosphere from an apartment to a college dorm. This allows you to use crates in place of all of the furniture, making it easier for the engine to render.
Since you didn't give a reason to think that, I'll go with what I think is the most logical reasoning, though I think that is looking too far into a simple off-hand remark. The most logical reason I can think of to think that would be if you thought I was referring to next-door neighbors, and that Lucifer resides in a place that abides by standard address rules. One of those rules is that odd numbers and even numbers are on opposite sides of the street. So, technically, 667 would be across the street from the beast.
I can't speak for your culture, but in mine, the word neighbor refers to those living in the same neighborhood as you. This is a rather nonspecific term, but the term that we use to refer to people living next door is a next-door neighbor. One reason I think this is more widespread than my neighborhood, and immediate culture, is Mr. Rogers. I believe when he is asking you to be his neighbor, he is not asking you to move next to him, but to befriend him, or become close to him (in a non-sexual way).
On a side note, my current address has the number 665 as the house number, which is why I take a small interest in this subject. Interestingly enough, directly across the street is a nursing home. Dissapointingly, the driveway is not directly across from my house, but down the road a bit, so it doesn't have an address of 666.

I believe that the movie list was a reference to the movie Dodgeball. Oh look, I'm right.
This is Seth from Videorama. The following DVDs are now overdue: "Drunken Hussies 3", "Backdoor Patrol 5" and "Mona Lisa Smile". Thank you.
A high school friend of mine was once working at a pizza place, and was the assistant manager. He made himself a name tag that said Ass. Man.

Actually, the PG-13 that was referenced in the quote fits approximately the same description as you have for M.
I hate to break it to you, but a condom won't help you get the next generation. That's just not how it works...

It was, until Nintendo innovated it. Green is just that much prettier.

I got you one better. I can get both of those, in addition to 1/9, 2/9, 4/9, 5/9, 7/9, and 8/9.

I looked at the picture you linked to. I don't remember the atari having a spoon as an input device. Is that correct?

Isn't that just the wrong way?

That's not a picture I wanted in my head, thank you very much...

Dude, don't insult him. He's got connections. Check that ID again. He's the neighbor of the beast!
Man, it's prey, not pray! That just means that they are shipping digital antelopes to the lions and tigers at the zoo, I think.
