Well, humans are agressive. That's one of our instincts; perhaps it is some kind of reminiscence from the days we spent in the caverns, fighting for survival.
The answer is simple. I belong to a third group: women who, sometimes, enjoy joking and burning karma. Jokes might be good (or bad ones), but they are just jokes, and they pretend to be just jokes. I do not pretend to catch everybody's attention, but your comment really does.
Well, all you need to get one is 125 physicists, 21 institutions around the world, a modern laboratory, and plenty of patience as your beloved SELEX will leave you so early (or late; well, it depends on what you call long lifetimes...)
Thus, I'm afraid to tell you that there'll be lots of disturbing elements in your relationship...
The new service, called Starz Ticket on Real Movies, will cost $12.95 a month, and subscribers will be able to download and watch 100 or more movies each month, using Real's media player software, but only if you have a 600Kbps connection or higher
Sorry, I strongly disagree with you. They make money selling CDs only if they sell a huge amount of them; that is, if they are a well-known band. But for those who are not as famous as them, it is better to have 100.000 "illegal" fans than 1.000 "legal" ones, because this way they will manage to get to more people, so more people will buy a ticket for their concerts. At least that's the way I see it.
Anyway, thank you for answering. I'll think of what you have just said.
They don't want it to end, that is the plain answer. The RIAA lives of the customers who buy "legal" music (they never remember the Creative Commons license, isn't that curious?). They are not interested in the earnings of the artists, of course; they only stand for their own earnings. Take into account that a musician earns more money playing in concerts, than selling discs.
Windows is the best OS, you know. If you use it, you find it makes your mind processes improve all the time, it teaches you how to temple your nerves when something goes wrong (very often, I mean)... and it's much more beautiful (there's something magical in that funny blue screen, don't you think so?)
Yep, I feel it comin' for me too... Oooops I made a mistake, 'tis not the book but my Algebra teacher, closely followed by the Jacobians and the Chinese Remainders!!!
KA-BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
(Well I know it's such a bad joke, but I bet you wouldn't do better after studying Convolutional Codes all day long...)

The best way to appreciate your sysadmin today: don't call him/her about a problem with your laptop xDD
Now, talking seriously: your post is a very good reply

Hello,
Pretty soon legions of young, nubile, slashdot-reading, geek chix0rz will be flooding his inbox with requests for... well you fill in the blank
Requests for taking part of the expedition, of course 0:-) (ok, offtopic, come to me...)

Hello,
The EC voted for patenting software. Why should we be impressed by this new decision?

Hello,
Well, maybe they have nothing to hide. But it is their nothing to hide. It is their private life.

Hello,
Doesn't it ring the bell to you? I wonder whether they understand the meaning of the word privacy.
I find it astonishing.

Hello,
That'll be the physicists, right?
Sure. They'll spend all the days trying to evaluate the interaction of SELEX and Burgburgburg. It's no good for their relationship...

To sum up: money rules.
