Don't forget their other rationale: that the speed of light started out much faster, and has slowed down since. In fact, that's why the estimate keeps dropping - it couldn't possibly have anything to do with the fact that we have more and more accurate measuring devices as time goes on!
Ignoring the fact that there is, indeed, proof of second-hand smoke leading to lung cancer, how 'bout the more "environmental" stuff? Stuff like, on the more severe side, asthmatics and others with respiratory issues having to use their medication more often, or on the more mundane side, other workers being annoyed by the smell (just as they would be if you played loud music on speakers in your cube)?
I agree; technically, they didn't reprint AFP-site stuff, but stuff from sites that had the rights to AFP's stuff. But I think one could argue that even though it's beta, it benefits Google in a commercial way (by increasing traffic to Google, publicity, etc). Plus, I think R&D uses would still be covered.
Non-americans do this too. Example: in Germany (and Austria, perhaps other Germanic nations), as you are talking, the listener will often say, "uh-huh" every few seconds. For an American (even one who has experienced it before) this is very unnerving, and it may be difficult to continue talking, because *in* *American* *society* it means that the "uh-huh"'er wants to interject. But to a Germanic person, it means, "I'm with you, I understand, keep going". It all has to do with different styles of communication of audience approval and interest.
It's too sweet. It may be an OK candy, but it's not chocolate. It has very little chocolate taste, but a lot of sugariness. Calling it chocolate would be like calling the Millenium Falcon a "stock" light freighter, but in reverse.
I use a BTE (not bone conduction) and have had similar problems. Motorola has never worked for me, but Kyocera produces a low-quality but tolerable signal, and LG phones have great sound quality (using my T-coil, also known as an induction loop - not sure if you have that).
Boeing may have discovered that 8/5 was optimal, but that's not why the jobs were all 9-5. That happened because unions organized to demand it - before WWII. One lyric from a union song was, "8 hours of work, 8 hours to sleep, 8 hours for what I will".
It is largely what you use frequently, but... I hadn't used Mac OS very much since 1994-ish, until about a year ago, and I was introduced to Linux 2-3 years ago. Now, I've been using Windows since 1991, but I am still more effective in Fedora or Darwin.
Klan propaganda is not censored. They've marched (with a permit) in Skokie (a town in Illinois with a large Jewish population) at least once in my recent memory.
Heh... reminds me of our first DVD player with thatt kind of feature. First day we had it, I got woken up at one in the morning because mom and dad wanted to watch Y Tu Mama Tambien...
Honestly -- the first thing a baby sees is Mom's boobies...
No, that's the second thing. If you think we Americans have a problem with boobs, you should see how we (as a country, not as individuals) react to the *first* thing a baby sees!
Plenty of reasons. For one, some people can't get driver's licenses (certain types of epilepsy and narcolepsy come to mind). For another, driving can be very expensive if you're in a wheelchair or have some other serious disability, so even doing driver's ed (the adaptations are often custom, meaning you'd have to buy a car to get a license) might not be worth it. There are tons of reasons why this might be true.
And yeah, a passport would be a better idea. Forgot about that until after I hit preview and submit.
I wasn't saying he should get an ID, necessarily. I was just trying to correct a perceived inaccuracy in what the GGP said.

That's OK. If they don't, Congress will.

And if you audiate it (that is, "hear" it in your mind), does it have a rhythm?

Yeah, and I bet you have a girlfriend, too, right? C'mon, we all know that they don't give the bar exam in your mom's basement.

Yeah, but that would be good for the people of the US, and thus is party of their duty. Giving away their passwords isn't.

In the know, and in the money. Not like it's cheap here, unless you get the crap Hershey calls chocolate.

Destroying part?
RTFA. It rolls for the "vertical" axis, and slides left and right in its socket for the "horizontal".

It was Superman III. Don't you remember Office Space (yes, it's true - that's my only source. I never saw Superman III)?
How would you recommend I learn LaTeX? I've tried a few times, but the learning curve seems to be *very* steep.

Dammit, beat me to it. I just use /etc/hosts in *nix and OS X, though.

Spiderman had acting?
