I don't feel sorry for them. If they didn't do any kind of test on the incoming shipments (quality control, at a minimum) then they were negligent. Which is probably why they "accept full responsibility". They were probably getting a deal that was "too good to be true" and didn't want to ask too many questions.
You call it A&E? So when you are about to die, they have to say "get this man to the A and E, stat!". That's a whole extra syllable! That's the difference between life and DEATH!
Thanks for the physics lesson. Unfortunately, you are still confused as to the purpose of a heat shield. If you don't believe a wiki, you could try Merriam Webster (www.m-w.com).
Considering that gold is a bad insulator, heavy element, and has a pretty low melting temperature, I'd say that they made a poor choice in heat shield materials.
No, the searcher asked for Penthouse and got a Penthouse (figuratively... they asked for Penthouse search results and got that). Then, in addition to the Penthouse (search results), they got a suggestion for Big-uns.
In the Pepsi/Coke analogy, I go into a restaurant and ask for a Pepsi. They give me a Pepsi. While doing so, they say "Next time, you should get a Coke". Furthermore, Coke pays them to say this, specifically when delivering a Pepsi. Does this infringe on trademark? I tend to think not. Let me know if you see any holes in this analogy.
All the people that ignore other web ads will ignore these newfangled full-motion ads too
As much as I'd like to say this is true for me, it just isn't. Sometimes I actually enjoy watching well-written TV ads. I would imagine that a full-motion format might offer me enough value (like a funny commercial) that I'd actually watch it. I've never seen a good pop-up, and I'm guessing that's partially because the format isn't conducive to entertainment.
Good point, but the analogy isn't quite right. In this case they aren't being PAID to offer you a Coke instead (although they might have a contract with Coke that gives them a discount if they offer Coke products exclusively). As far as I can tell, trademark law comes down to confusion... i.e. the consumer is aware that they are not getting an actual Playboy magazine or Playboy authorized content. Otherwise, how is it different from a Penthouse employee overhearing me say "Playboy" and offering me a Penthouse instead? That can't be copyright infringement, but that's basically what's going on here.
And don't forget, "If you ask for a Pepsi, you get a Pepsi... unless they don't have a Pepsi. And then you have to drink a generic cola-beverage."(SM)
I think they now charge you the $4.40 excursion fare. You get to ride around the bay area for three hours as long as you enter and exit the same station. Whoop-dee-fricking-doo.
Several million dollars is still a lot of money, but it's not enough to live on without working
Sorry, but this is really an ignorant statement. You can easily live off the interest of a couple million dollars forever, even indexing for inflation. Check out annuity.com for examples.
That's it, I'm only buying my size enhancement products from alleyways and vans in parking lots.

The idea behind nuclear winter is particulate matter (read: soot and other crap) in the atmosphere blocking out light. I don't think vapor clouds compare in terms of the "we're screwed" factor.
Sadly, I know a ton of people who have never heard of Chuck Yeager. He was not part of my academic curriculum. The only reason I heard of him at a young age was the video game named after him.
Since when do you use loopholes in your TV to steal media anyways? I'd say that the main point of copyright violation would be before the signal enters the TV.
Come on, everything we believe is derived from some form of inference. I'm sure at some point a stray electron has caused a nerve in my retina to fire, causing me to "see" a blip.
I'd be impressed if he got the Windows source code, modified it accodingly and compiled it to PPC. This just seems like an excercise in picking a theme and "going overboard". Like the gigapixel guy.

That's the whole point of a heat shield. Try http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_shield
If you're trying to block radiation, they call it a radiation shield, oddly enough.
Except most PPP based service providers require you to log in.

Faxing is still better than what a small merchant does when you place an order over the phone. They write "phone order" on the slip.

Some crazy nerds at CMU did something like this a few years ago... played tetris on the side of a really big building.

I have my spam filter set to bounce all Tomahawk missles. If one does happen to get through, abuse@navy.mil is going to be hearing from me.
It's true, women prefer men with LARGE GOVERNMENTS. Communism can help you regrow hair, and in communist societies there's no reason to spam!
When I worked at Sun, all of the coffe cups said "Java". That's the kind of creativity that puts you at the forefront of technology... right?

What kind of demos did they show to bring you to the conclusion that "performance is very, very good"?
