    2001 Jetta 1.9 TDI (Diesel) - EPA Ratings 42/49 MPG 2001 Jetta 2.0 (Gasoline) - EPA Ratings 24/31 MPG I'm using 2001 epa's because that's the Jetta I have. These are not slight differences.

    My point was that something being opensource does not really help it in the end. In fact, this seems to rarely boost public appreciation of any product.

    what is WTFU?

    Having said that, this looks pretty neat. It will probably be more widely accepted, being open source (it is, right?), so it can be ported easily.
    Yeah, just like OGG took off because it was open source. Hah.

    Why do you assume that "showing real snuff videos to kindrgardeners" is going to harm them?

    Unfortunately, in this situation, you cannot blame the music distributor. If an employee breaks a company policy, they have no one to blame but themselves. That would be like suing a sex toy company when your boss finds you on top of your desk with a string of anal beads hanging out.

    There is no such thing as a cellar in New Orleans, and even if there was, it would have filled up with water long before the attics that people are trapped in. There should have been busses to evacuate people on hand. That is the only thing that would have saved the New Orleans poor that did not make it.

    Actually it has been suggested that the reason man started cooking food was simply to recreate the warmth of a freshly killed animal, not because they were afraid of injesting a little blood.

    That's funny, it's been at least 2 years since my Mac has "crashed" and that was due to me loading a funky kernel extention. I bought this computer in 2000, and it is still running like a champ (with Tiger), and maybe I don't have the same needs as you as far as hardware and software choice, but I manage to do everything I desire with it. (Oh, and my mac is frequently DMZ'd and I have NEVER run any antivirus software on it -- it's just something I don't consider)Everyone has a story about how their platform of choice is superior, don't think you are any different.
