  4. Re:Debate? on Sun's Mickos Is OK With Monty's MySQL 5.1 Rant · · Score: 2, Informative

    Sun may be more "progressive" than some, but this statement from the article clearly reveals who's running the show:

      "...There were still some outstanding critical bugs, and Marketing and Sales were pressing for a release," Maxia added.

    This was "understandable," he said. "The economic situation of Sun was not good, the company had just cut 2,500 jobs, and we needed the new release to boost sales.

    Seems to confirm the original complaint.

    Freedom of speech in terms of expression of ideas. It doesn't include fraud, libel, threats, and so on.

    Funny, there are no such stipulations in the first amendment. Or maybe you're posting from a place without those protections.

    ...look where we are now.

    Yeah, pretty sad, isn't it? Still burning kerosene, or some variant thereof, including hydrogen, for virtually everything. Instead of looking for "new" ways to fuel old machines, perhaps it might be better to redesign the machine.

  20. Re:why they didn't cover his drug use. on Press Favored Obama Throughout Campaign · · Score: 1

    Well, in a way it is if you're going to enforce its prohibition. However the press let Bush skate the issue also. And in a worse way that they never got an honest answer from him.
