Portsmouth, VA owns one that came from a place called Hog Island. It stayed in our materials warehouse for 30 years until they built a pedestal in the harbor for it last year. It was walled up in a corner of the warehouse. I got to tear down the wall and since I knew it was a classic, nearly one-of-a-kind that was going to be forever displayed in a high profile place...I took my opportunity to be photographed with my butt on it.:-)
The only things to understand about BitTorrent is that it's nearly a free way to distribute something. Why sacrifice your own servers and bandwidth when you can use other peoples'? The other thing to understand is IT'S SLOW AS SHIT. I hate it but a lot of times it's the only way to get things, especially DVD ISOs.
Cheap ass distribution companies.
We were all made fun of at some point. Everybody, every last person amongst us. Sometimes it hurts, sometimes it IS funny for your differences to be pointed out. Maybe the mentor is scared this kid will wind up going Columbine at school? If he has asked his mentor to help him fit in and be cool, there is no dstinct formula, but there are steps that can be taken. Cleanliness, combed hair, neat clothes, all of these are pretty much universally accepted. Maybe the mentor was a tormented youth who is trying to save his study from the pains he experienced? Life is to be lived. Every experience works to make you into who you will be. In high school I was a total introvert and ubergeek. I say let him grow up some before he has to worry about who he is. Now I'm a friendly, outgoing building remodeling specialist who knows more about technology than anybody else in the shop. I have an excellent social life and am very successfull with women. Everything changes after highschool. It doesn't matter who was cool and who wasn't there after everybody gets out. Especially after you're done with college and enter the real world, it's all about seeing yourself starting the career you'll retire from while those who made fun of you have a fat girl pregnant and are still working at the mall.
So the best thing to do in this case is nothing, I think.

Nope, I checked though. BitTorrent is completely unfiltered.
This sounds like really good info except...I don't know how to do it! :-) Any tips? Win XP, cable, and McAfee Firewall...
3 Kibs down, 27 kibs up on a 768k downstream. BitTorrent blows goats.
I want a game that will let me kill people, but will beat me down if I dont do it clean! Uhm...how about Splinter Cell? The GTA series is now perfect!
This is about the only use of them I approve of. Then again cell phone manufacturers will find a way around it if it becomes too much of a problem.

This is exactly what I thought! Except I concluded that Konami knows where the Holy Grail is...
