Perhaps it would be better if we ALL simply sat down and decided that these old religious things we carry around are not right, and a new view is in order?
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1749-1832, German poet and scientist: "10,000 more years will pass, and the fairytale of the Jesus Christ will still keep people from coming to their senses."
...we don't know what would have happened without them either. The greatest evolutionary development ever, permitting us survival in vacuum and psychic ability as well as some other uninmaginable abilities may have been crushed by a tree billions of years ago.
So we can't say what would or would not have happened with out this or that. Things would have gone _differently_, for sure, but that's all we can say.
I totally agree on your opinion towards the KDE environment. I use Fluxbox, too, but I rely on Konqueror as a file browser/mount-manager/FTP client.
I think that is a decent combination, as Fluxbox starts like a breeze, and only when I need the Konqueror, the system will load the big libraries (and take a while).
You simply cannot make a decent movie of the Silmarillion. It covers more time than and features more characters than even the Bible does, and it is utterly impossible to depict some of the characters (The Vala? Liv Tyler was a good shot for Arwen in LOTR, but which actress would you have playing the part of Beauty Itself, i.e. Elbereth? Not to mention Morgoth - Jackson wouldn't even show Sauron in LOTR) and it is even more impossible to cover all that the Silmarillion tells.
You might make a movie of one part of the Silmarillion, like but which? They are all connected, in a myriad of ways, and the book achieves most of it's greatness by that alone. Even the history of the Noldor alone would make for a movie longer than all three parts of LOTR together.
The normal five senses [...] involve the intake of information through specialized organs or tissues [...] in addition to the processing of those stimuli.
Can you tell for certain there isn't another, yet undiscovered organ or tissue specialised on receiving and forwarding sensory input?
Assuming all commercial interests are inherently evil is ignorant... [yadda yadda]
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Humour (humor in American English) is a form of entertainment and a form of human communication, intended to make people laugh and feel happy.
Couldn't you then, just as the GPL allows, buyinto the service, copy everything out of it and make it available for free?
Of course, it would be easier to have the project forked into the commercial (EVIL) and a free (GOOD) part.
Sure, like the CIA, NSA and the Air Force are going to let camera and image processing technology that is barely 15 years old fall into Chinese hands...
'Cause now we can just set our spam filters to look out for something like "WARNING: This message's content might not be suited for..." right in the subject!

Cell phones can do just about anything now, and a little more. They should rather explain why they still call them "phones"...

Talk about free flow of information...
You mean free flight of information!
I can tell you that there's no evidence suggesting this to be the case [...].
That's what I meant by "yet undiscovered". Our body and brain have much more to reveal that we know by now.

Have you actually tried searching for "democracy in china" on both that accoona thing and google? I'd say that _does_ show censorship.
