  3. Re:Avoid Cingular on Reasonable Pre-Paid Cellphones in the US? · · Score: 1

    I'm going to try to be civil about this...

    How can you call what I'm saying blatantly false? You're going to sit there and say that I'm lying about a balance that is on my phone right now? I have the cingular pick-your-plan gophone, and it bills me $50 a month. If I use up that $50 it will bill me another $50 before the due date, but will change my monthly due date. If I don't use the minutes, when a month comes, they bill me another $50 either way. I currently have about $103 on my phone balance... about 3 months of not using my phone much at all.

    Are you serious? You didn't detect the sarcasm in my GDP comment?

    And yes, there are 2 plans. Pay as you go and Pick your plan. I was on Pick my plan and just haven't used my phone much in the last 2 months. Then last week I got a real cell phone plan, so I'll be cancelling my go phone soon. I wonder if I'll get that back.

    FYI, my actual balance is just over $100... they bill at $50 a month for the plan I'm on whether you use it or not. Oh, and they upsold me on a media package that the phone they sold me doesn't even support.... lol

    I do have to say, the connectivity has been pretty dang good.

    Cingular bills you $50 a month regardless of whether you use your minutes.

    After several years, the account balance on my phone is greater than the GDP of Saudi Arabia.

  8. Unbelievable... on FCC Sued to Allow Cell Phone Jammers · · Score: 2

    "CellAntenna argues that the Communications Act and the FCC regulations that interpret the law are unconstitutional because they are in conflict with the Homeland Security Act of 2002, adopted by Congress in the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks." I can see it now... "It's outunconstitutionalizes the homeland security act!" ... Isn't it hard enough to keep cellphone operations running? Now they have to deal with this too?

    You are correct in that it is closer to my ideal nation than any other. But I wouldn't leave it to go to one I thought was more ideal and try to change it. Where would I go? I'm American, and this is my country. I have a lot of pride in my country, but also a lot of shame.

    Some people were saying that they would leave if Bush was reelected, and I shared many points of view with them aside from that one. My reaction to that was always to reply with "If you dislike it, why would you leave? If you dislike it, work harder to change it."

    And that's exactly what I'm doing.

    If some of you haven't done so, look into the Libertarian Party's stance on issues.
