a) What makes you think it's impossible to craft laws in a way that the citizen can understand when it's possible to craft programs that a hunk of silicon can understand? I citizen can say "I understand" and come back later saying "wait, no I don't". When a computer program says "Compiled!", it understands, and it won't later fail to recompile without revision in the "law."

"Kensington University is a private, non-sectarian, independent University offering Bachelor, Master, MBA, and Doctoral degree programs in Business, Social Science, Computer Science, Engineering, Law, and Education."
It's a distance learning program, and it's for real. I know of a professor at Cal State LA who holds a valid PhD in EE from here.
I'll bet that if those gifted hackers using Linux entered this contest, it would only be a matter of time before someone did it. The problem is, none of these hackers using linux want to ruin the "secure" reputation of the OS by winning this contest. Instead of worrying about ruining its reputation, try and make a virus for it so the linux community can then come up with an update for the kernel or whatever to make it secure again.
This is like when you're in kindergarten and some other kid pushes you down. Oh wait, except you're not in kindergarten, you're a mature college student and the other kid is smaller than you. Yeah, you should beat him up as opposed to continuing on with your damn life.
Sorry, this is not the anectode I planned on it being...
Instead of forming a union that combats the discrimination, they are adding to it. Their number one rule is that members must use 56k. What about all of the high-speed access users that agree with the plight of dialup users but can't show their support because of this short-sighted restriction on membership? For shame.

Think about it...no longer will one be able to pick a book off the shelf and check out a few chapters before purchasing it. Is anyone else with me on this?
"There are no shortcuts to any place worth going."
The scientists are wrong in saying that only women can have tetrachromat vision. This is because some males have two X chromosomes and one Y chromosome (genotype XXY), a condition known as Kleinfelter Syndrome. Saying that tetrachromat vision is only possible in females is thus simply wrong considering their explanation.

I wish I could find where they mention the real number itself, or at least offer a link to where one may find it. I've always used 9.8, but it'd be nice to at least make a 20-decimal or so approximation and save it as a constant variable in code for a game relying heavily on physics, or better yet my ti83+ calculator!:)

"ball lightning" was one of the best cards, something that you essentially sacrificed to do a great deal of damage to any target. I loved that card. Oh yeah, very interesting article, too:)

I agree with the author of this in that the chief reason why many are pulled to the communal atmosphere of the Internet is to feed their ids, egos, and superegos. Doing this is much easier in RL because one can be virtually anonymous on the Net; there are no harsh repercussions for actions one might commit in cyberspace. I believe/. hosted a piece earlier commenting on the use of anonymity(sp?) and its merits as well as downfalls.

They offer non-steamed versions of the live broadcasts in as little as two hours after the fact (according to them), so don't think it's all "see it live or don't." The web page scripts are so slow, though, I don't know how they are going to manage people downloading large files. Anyway, as I said before, I'll try to mirror their files as soon as I can ACCESS them:->

They made real-time videos, right? Why are they not offering them up for download? I see no reason to classify them...
