    I can honestly tell you I have never played Quake. But I was pretty good at Stratego and Risk. So I wouldn't know the comparison. I guess my next solution would to get the fire bombers out and carpet bomb the area with paint. If I was really mean, I would make it very caustic.

    My basic premise is that all movement leaves a "wake" or a disturbance that shouldn't be too difficult to detect. You might not see where they are, but you might be able to deduce it by where they've been. If they have vehicles, or haven't bathed in a while, they'll be easy to smell. And they'll have to maintain radio silence.

    You won't need anything so fancy to see their footprints or tire tracks.

    Yes, well, that's using high frequency. My point was that if you reduce the agitation of the molecules by using a low frequency of, say 0hz, it should make whatever they are part of...? I thought it was a legitimate question. Evidently some mods thought differently.

    Advocating violence is hardly insightful. I do believe he did win an election. Maybe something more along the lines of not voting for him would be more appropriate, no?

    You could also claim that a squig of nutmeg around your neck will prevent alien abductions.

    Well, it's worked for me so far.

    That's a good idea. Make 'em mad as hell. Then maybe they'll demand an end to this hysteria. We must take our freedom back "by whatever means necessary".

    Proof. I don't need no steeeenking proof. All I need is money. Then I'll get you, and your little dog too. Haven't you noticed how things work here? I wear you down. You settle. I get rich(er). The end. Who's next?

    That would be considered very suspicious. No laptop that I know comes with a clean disk. You would be much better off if it did boot. And throw some family pics on there for good measure.

    Well, I for one would like to see it applied to anyone under U.S. custody. No American authority should be allowed to violate the constitution.

    Seizing my person(me) for an indefinite period is very relevant. The customs process and procedure of search and seizure is abusive and corrupt. Made much more so by this administration over a very short period of time. And that is the point of this topic.
