  1. Re:Just like them politicians on College Funding Bill Passes House, P2P Provision Intact · · Score: 1

    Yeah, letting Strom Thurmond name the Civil Rights bill is exactly what you want to do.

  4. Re:Here is some Clarification on College Funding Bill Passes House, P2P Provision Intact · · Score: 1

    Change it to chicken. The point still stands. No religion opposes chicken. (No, Buddhism doesn't count. The Buddha ate meat and he said it was okay to do so as long as you didn't kill the animal yourself.)

    Personally I'd like the Sci-Fi channel high leadership(Hammer and Stern) to be fired and replaced with people who actually like science fiction.

  8. Re:I love the moderation. on Deal Reportedly Reached In Writers' Strike · · Score: 1

    I see a lot of comments both pro- and anti- union in Slashdot discussions. But what I see from you is bad grammar. Try fixing that, it makes your post hard to read. You'll probably get better mods that way.

  9. Re:Wow on Deal Reportedly Reached In Writers' Strike · · Score: 1

    Do you know why there was no sequel to "Forrest Gump"? The writer of the original book didn't want his next book to become another failing movie. ;)

    (Of course, they were supporters of and supported by the unions, but it was mostly political liberalism that's important, unions or no.

    Killing Grendel, killing Grendel's mother, killing the dragon but getting killed in the process...

    No, but unfortunately most of the other people who do are denigrated by the Stroustrup types for being too "academic".

    http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/1525.html has a similar joke, but about fermions.

  20. It was the people that broke the process on Diebold Voter Fraud Rumors in New Hampshire Primaries · · Score: 1

    You ignore the second problem, where the machine was right and the human was wrong.

  21. Re:Fraud, Scmaud on Diebold Voter Fraud Rumors in New Hampshire Primaries · · Score: 1

    You missed the part where several hundred Jews voted for a third-party candidate whose defining feature was anti-Semitism. And the fact that Bush's victory was far less than the number of broken ballots.
    But I've stopped caring about one specific case of Florida fraud. My target is bigger. The Electoral College needs to die.

  22. Re:Accounting error. on Diebold Voter Fraud Rumors in New Hampshire Primaries · · Score: 1

  23. Re:These things happen on Diebold Voter Fraud Rumors in New Hampshire Primaries · · Score: 1

    Do you know what 1% black means? It means that it cannot be the only explanation for a 4% discrepancy. I don't get where he's talking about racism(I guess he's pretending it's racist to assume black people are statistically poorer or something) but there has to be something other than race effecting these differences.

  24. Re:These things happen on Diebold Voter Fraud Rumors in New Hampshire Primaries · · Score: 1

    So your company decides to have you turn in your vote to make sure you vote for Ron Paul.
