Yeah...and get some new talent. I'm tired of the same old hacks. We know too much about their personal lives now to take any of their films serious. I mean, can you watch Tom Cruise without expecting him to just act crazy?
Your real estate comment doesn't make sense. The same digital projectors are used for 3D and 2D. Most multiplexes have many more houses than they can fill anyway so no "real estate" is waisted by showing 3D. How does not showing 3D attract a wider audience? Almost all multiplexes will show both 2D and 3D versions and YOU get to choose which one you want to pay for. 3D is an additional option that DOES attract wider audiences by providing an additional choice.
anyone can complain...what is your solution? For me, all politics are local. We pay way too much attention to the national election and very little attention to local elections. These national people don't come from nowhere. Most start locally. If we all take more time to pay attention where it matters most, our backyard, perhaps less of these clowns will make it to the national stage. I'm tired of voting for the "least awful"...
Also, people vote. Not organizations, etc. Are people only educated by TV commercials? Money itself isn't the problem it's the fuel to the ignorance fire that most voters flock to - advertisements as information. We're well on our way to "Idiocracy".
So you want faster rail and green energy? Spend the money on nuclear power, etc and eliminate the coal fired power plants. I live next to a rail line that serves both freight and Amtrak. 90% of the train traffic is 100+ car coal trains...several an hour at that. In our state Amtrak has the right away. The only problem is that many of these coal trains are too long for many of the "pull over" areas. Get rid of the coal trains and you open up the tracks for significantly more passenger rail...assuming that's what you want because I personally think the idea is a waste of money for 90% of the country's land area.
...because it's one of the ONLY Postgres books ever. Not a lot of competition out there unless you want a foreign language reprint of the online documentation or a "programmers guide". Definitely little to nothing useful in the admin category.
And when the Chinese hacker take down the power grid and food stops showing up at the grocery store...who quickly becomes the "fuckwit"?
Let me put it another way...when your "interweb wires" go through my land because I have a forced easement or some "fuckwit" decides the space 15ft above my land doesn't belong to me and starts stringing wires then funny things start happening.
I get rated a Troll and the original parent also because we don't love the PG documentation? What gives? Clearly the troll in this equation is the idiot with the mod points. TAKE IT

The fact he makes such a statement means two things. One, he's never bothered to look. Two, only interested in FUD'ing.
Of course, you are wrong. I've spent quite a bit of time in both SQL Server BOL and PG 8.1 manual. The PG manual may be one of the best OSS manuals but it is far from THE best manual. It's extremely weak in the areas of administration. And if you're brave enough to make a suggestion on one of the PG boards you are usually met with elitist resistance as if their acceptance of a suggestion is somehow a indication of failure. This is especially true if you reference a MS SQL example.
Because the press has blamed Linux for everything (including things which clearly are not Linux's fault), and they couldn't withstand the public pressure any more. Note that 80% of the users were satisfied with the new desktop, and a further 10% just complained about transient problems.
Wow...I've heard the same stats used against Windows...
So educate me... How do I use common sense to determine if the site I just logged into actually secures the login information on the backend? Is it stored in clear text, transmitted in clear text, available to everyone in the company? I have no idea what happens to the credentials I just entered. How do I use common sense to determine if Facebook, MySpace, Slashdot, NYT, etc are taking the securing of my personal and login information seriously? Do you read every EULA completely? Would you even know if the company did not follow their EULA? Do you have the resources to sue if they don't?
Common sense tells me that no site is to be trusted implicitly; they are all dangerous.
I had stuff that crashed every 10 minutes and I paid 10 times as much for it.
There it is...I've been searching for my generation's "walked to school up hill both ways in a snow storm"... now I have it.

It used to be. But the Christian groups seem to have the current government by the balls. And the opposition leader is a fundamentalist as well, so we are fucked either way.
"seditious Tea Partiers blocking real reform" - keep spreading the FUD. Tea Partiers have no vote...they cannot block reform on their own. The House, Senate and Whitehouse are controlled by Democrats! Attend an actual Tea Party rally before you comment. You might find that it is nothing like how it's beeing portrayed.

Um...please point me to the copy of the PG manual you are using. being both a PostgreSQL and MS SQL user...MS BOL is significantly more useful...
Why do you like PostgreSQL so much and why did you leave MS SQL out of your closed source list? Subjective perception?
I'm curious: which Windows-only packages are hot in your field?
Microsoft SQL Server 2008.

It's likely that the trade was actually for an ETF that contained many of the stocks and not just P&G.
Saw liberals at a health care rally last summer. They seemed like a bunch of cranks and racists. See how I did that.
