I think you missed the parent post's point about renting not owning. He said he wouldn't buy the game until a non-steam or reliable crack(thus making the game non-steam) not that the parent poster wanted to play the game for free(gratis). Your accusation of piracy is akin to saying I am pirating my printer by buying a non-oem ink cartridge.
It is my belief that once digital distribution becomes more mainstream so will the you don't own anything you merely rent it. This will improve shareholder value etc.
Perhaps you have heard of former head of Vivendi, Mr. Messier, you see most of Vivendi's money is in the water business, and he went on an acquition spree, but now he is gone, so they could easily get out of the games business. Also perhaps you have heard of Interplay or maybe read about Fallout 3 being sold to Bethesda? Thus this stuff does happen. Or Valve could decide that Half-life 2.5 is the new greatness and no one shall play Half-life 2 online multiplayer any more.
What is even more fun is if you were to have a BLEVE(Boiling-Liquid Evaporating Vapor Explosion)event, although that might be difficult with hydrogen. If you were to use propane as the hydrogen source for the fuel cell that would be more likely.
There is also an extreme shortsightedness that leads to the burn and churn philosphy, which in the long run causes these companies to fail, since quality has been sacrificed.
Um, no VOIP would probably be more like interstate commerce, and therefore be controlable by Congress. States are just going to have to look elsewhere for funds to cover their deficits.
To the anon coward asshat try google for the uniform code of military justice 809.ART.90 (20), that military personnel have to obey the "lawful command of his superior officer" (emphasis mine). Thus the comment is not pure BS. But thanks for trolling, the Kool-aid man will be around to top you off.
Ok folks, put down the kool-aid, The US military(not sure about others) has the concept of illegal orders, wherein a grunt can refuse to comply with an order(eg kill babies point blank) due to it being illegal.
Sorry, I see your comprehension skills are beyond terrible so I will now use additional tags to make my point clear.
The revolution was so sucessful that people are fleeing the island. My point about the prostitution mentioned in the parent posts little sotry was that the would probably be prostituiton with out the "Mafia maggots". Perhaps you have heard the expression out of the pan and into the fire? Now, I am not defending Batista, but Castro's Cuba isn't that great. You see when I asked "Or was..." I was being sarcastic. Nowdo you comprehend?
Wow, I had no idea Cuba was so f'ing great that those people on homemade rafts trying to land in Florida, were actually spreading the word on how great Cuba is. Or was the point of your post, that rich men will pay money to have sex with beautiful women, in that case let me inform you of the equally shocking water still wet, ice still cold.
True, but here is the fun part. By US standards most banks in China aren't solvent. Now what happened the last time there was a big credit crunch in an asian nation? The currencies in the region all fell. Also look out for commodity prices to crash once China's economy slows.
No, you don't understand we built so many weapons so that a first strike by the Soviets would not be able to take out all our nukes, thus preventing the US from retaliating. Anyways, the Chinese by building the 3 Gorges dam have provided a target that a single tactical nuke could inflict more damage then a megaton H bomb.
No, the US doesn't have to worry as long as China keep its currency pegged to ours. Once that stops expect a massive shock, then a war to end all wars.

So just call this place a "Bible Study" center or some such similiar BS. Then you can hide in plain sight.

Careful he might thaw out.
Or perhaps we just don't trust the exit polls? You know lies, damn lies, and statistics.

"if the index has doubled so has our supply of information. Information rules!" Not to be a spelling Nazi but you misspelled pr0n.

Didn't you learn from the Brady Bunch? No one likes a tattle-tale. And when you tattle on others you are really tattling on your self.

Last time I checked there were no americans dancing in the streets of the major cities celebrating the Iraqi casualties.
I care about every vote being counted.
Even the ballots cast from beyond the grave?
The GOP doesnt like to lose.
Policitians like remaining in power!! film at 11.
Wouldn't a better spot be behind the ear or somewhere along the jaw line?
