If your traveling and are looking for a place to check your mail. Your only offering $3.00 total maybe $6.00 if your a slow reader. Whereas the people playing Quake are playing for hours on end. They (The Game Players,) are the true customers of the establishment. Not you. If your pissed. Sorry, but your not the deciding factor in the store owners mind. Your $6.00 is moving on in a day and doesn't carry the same weight to the owner as the 15 year old kid who spends $20 a day there. Of course, I've never equated "Internet cafe" as a "serious service for people who need it."
The biggest complaint I have is that I needed to sign up for the Netcenter. (I'm sure I didn't really need to sign up for it. But that was the impression that I got.) I don't need another free email site.
About five minutes into the session, two staffers came in late. And after about a minute more of my presentation, one of the latecomers had heard enough. Here I was, he objected, arguing that the government should "begin regulating the Internet." Where was the limit? Where would I draw the line? Today I was calling for the regulation of broadband cable; should we also regulate broadband wireless? And if wireless, then satellite too? Was there any stopping this "new" regulation of cyberspace? Was I proposing that we regulate Linux (or "Line-Ucks," as he mispronounced it) because it might become as popular as Windows? </quote>
Sounds like that staffer was your normal/. user. Show up late in the discussion. Don't listen to the whole argument. Then goes off half cocked.
I do know that the remains of soldier in the tomb of the unknown soldier that fought in the Vietnam War was identified about 2 years ago by DNA testing.

Unfortunetly the only reprecussions would be that the person or persons responsible would lose their job. Then they will receive govt. money in the form of unemployment or severance pay.
I'm trying to think of a time period since records were first recorded that didn't have girls buying "Boy Bands and teeny boppers."
Whether it's Ricky Martin, David Cassidy, Ricky Nelson, Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby... etc. I think that "Cute" guy singer's albums will be bought by teenaged girls.
I always shudder when I hear people that people who put down another country are racist. Nationalistic or jingoistic maybe. But it can't be racist. Last I heard Canadian wasn't a race.
So... I have the ultimate revenge. Load DoS software on the computer of the person you don't like. Then rat them out to the Feds. <BR> <BR>Mr. FBI Agent: Sure you didn't install that software yourself...
I'd like to make a comment to the person who said that her case must have been a good one because it won. Just because a civil case wins doesn't mean it was a good case. Just that the jury sympathized with the plaintiff. Well, not always but I'm sure it happens more than we would like to think.
I was on a jury for a civil case. Remember civil cases don't have to be all for one. You can split in your voting and majority wins. In this case the operator of a bulldozer was killed when he rolled his bulldozer off a steep hill. His family sued his employer for wrongful death. ( forget the exact amount, but it was for several million dollars.)
The first day of deliberations we were stuck six to six. The reason the six people felt the company was not at fault but because they were a large company and could afford to pay. That we should award his family some of the money that they wanted.
The next day when we came back to deliberations several people had thought about the issue and argued that just because a large company can afford to pay a million dollars, does not mean that it is responsible to pay their employees family the money.
We ended up deciding that the employer was not at fault and did not award the money to the family.
So it doesn't always mean the best case wins, sometimes the most sympathetic case will.

When I saw it used the windows CE os. (Which is one of the OS that we support to get onto the internet.)
Crap... I'm gonna have to do tech support for those guys in the middle of a firefight.

How can they garuntee that this 800 number will not turn into a "I don't like that person, I'll just turn em in as depressed."

Sounds like the future DVD player for all DVD pirates.
I remember reading that it was the most neutral of all colors.
Everybody hates it the same.
Actually I always thought that with law enforcement it's more of a case of just getting rid of the Parking Ticket. Not paying it.
Unfortunetly the only reprecussions would be that the person or persons responsible would lose their job. Then they will receive govt. money in the form of unemployment or severance pay.
Now as a side note...
What job will pay your on-job parking tickets?

Does anyone know if they did run identical test beds?
Anyone have a list of what they used?
Thanks.
Of course if money is no object. I'd just prefer to have the London Philharmonic come to my living room for an evening of fine listening enjoyment.
Less trouble... But lot's more money.
Of course when you want to listen to the music of dead artists... Gonna have to shill out that quarter mil.

When I was in the 5th - 9th grades I remember I couldn't get enough of Madeline L'Engle Books. Especially A Wrinkle in Time. Loved them all...
