You're right, CBS is not the enemy here. Nevertheless, Jack Benny will still be important, for being funny, long after everyone's forgotten that CBS means the Columbia Broadcasting System.
Everyone knows it's practically impossible to end an AOL contract.
I tell my clients that they should know that when other people see they're on AOL images of the word "IDIOT" tattooed on your forehead isn't uncommon. On the other hand, quitting AOL is time consuming and shameful. I know someone who had to ultimately claim (falsely) that they had two weeks to live before they could close an AOL account.
Practical advice for non-IT users: An email account that is not tied to your ISP.
Hey I liked Avatar, but honestly, the story line is derivative as you say. When I heard someone on the radio call it "Dances With Wolves in Space" I had to chuckle.
As for the 3D technology in Avatar, I call that true progress.
If I may, here's a story about fault tolerance in the mac. I do general hourly fee consulting on windows and mac. Once I went to a 70+ year-old woman's home to help her with her mac which "had recently begun to run slow." It was an iBook G3 (many, many years old) with 256 MB of RAM. When I arrived I learned that since buying the mac the woman had never shut it down and restarted; never closed an application; never emptied the trash; and never performed an Apple Update. It was slow but still usable, which blew my mind.

It's not a bug, it's a feature! Call it a web application, for the purpose of wiping your hard drives which, from time to time, everyone needs to do.
Here's another take, just as meaningless:
Using bing to find "google search" yields 121,000,000 results.
Using google to find "bing search" yields 41,300,000.
Google wins hands down!
Familiarity breeds contempt. Can't we all just move along?
MSFT stock is down about $20/share during Ballmer's ten-year run as CEO. Meanwhile, AAPL is up $184/share over the same period.

WTF? Freedom of speech is protected by the constitution. Anonymity gets its due, at least here on slashdot.
"There are around 2600 users of varying knowledge, mostly pretty low." 2600 you say? Hmmm. That should set off a few alarms.
Does Google own a cat?

Thoughtful points, but it occurs to me that regular traffic accidents would provide plenty of glass road-breaking opportunities.
