I want you to re-read your original post and tell me it's reasonable or insightful or anything but idiotic. Your insight was that he should show that you can cancel doing whatever he's doing. What feature would that NOT apply to. Cancellation is ubiquitous. You're an idiot, and no you were not pointing out what the PHB would say. In the event that you were, it's quite unfunny. So in that unlikely instance, wtf is your point?
5.1 for live sound? Doubtful. Instead of a pan knob on each channel, you'd have a joystick?
Me thinks not.
The pan pot on channels serves a nice dual purpose of L/R for stereo mixes and odd sub / even sub for sub master assignment.
Most live mixes are in mono anyways - what do they need 5.1 for?
The most useful purpose for a stereo mix in a live setting is for feedback avoidance. If a performer steps in front of a stack to interact with the crowd, the engineer can pan his instrument to the opposite stack to avoid feedback.
And that's about it.
The vast majority of the audience isn't in a position to listen to a stereo mix.
In conclusion, I disagree. 5.1 will not be a killer app for live sound applications.
As for gay marraige, that's like asking a vegetarian if he prefers burgers or steaks. It's an absurd thing that you're demanding. His position is clearly that he doesn't think that government should be involved in marraige at all. How is that dodging the question?
As for people satisfied with the Big Two. I disagree, many publications this election year have officially placed their endorsement for "None of the Above" ("above" being Democrats or Republicans). And furthermore, Badnarik hasn't even been covered. Let's not get into the "he'd be covered if people were interested". It's spuriously circular logic. The role of the news is to inform. Do you find out about the triple homicide last night because people call the paper and ask about it? Hardly. The paper has a role to *inform* the public of what's going on.
Well then I guess it will be difficult to reason with you. I don't agree with killing things like the FCC, the EPA, or the CDC but things like the Department of Education, the FDA, Social Security should get ramped down. Feel free to defend their existance.
As for gun control, can you fault the guy? He's just respecting the 2nd amendment.
As for a dishonest answer on gay marraige, I'm not sure what you're referring to. It seems extremely straightforward and principled enough to me.
Libertarians are sensible people. We're not going to do these things overnight. Much of the platform is 10-20 year plan.
Do I want an executive, legislative, and judicial branch full of Libertarians? Hell no. But do I think that their influence is missing? Yes.

1) Then when do we leave?
2) Then how do we stop picking targets? Syria, Iran, North Korea
Let me plant a little seed for you. It has nothing to do with terrorism. It has nothing to do with axis of evil or anything of that other bullshit. It has to do with imperialism. And, no I'm not voting Kerry. I'm voting Badnarik, and you should too.
I won't hold it against you if you vote for Badnarik but tell your friends you voted for Bush.
"I was seriously considering voting for Badnarik." Riiiiiight. Um ok, here's one to match your "testimonial" from someone that was "about" to vote Kerry ahem....
I was seriously thinking about voting for Kerry but then I realized that I'm not a socialist.
Wow. How exciting. Voting for someone on the basis that they could win. How principled. On second though, fuck that. I say....
1) Go, Detroit Tigers!
2) Go, Detroit Lions!
3) Go, Badnarik!
The Electoral College isn't broken. Leave it be. It's the method of determining who wins the electors that is fucked up. You don't know what the hell you're talking about. The only way to get a method like Condorcet in place is by voting 3rd party or by getting a ballot initiative.
You're not alone. I too am a Badnarik voter who would otherwise be voting for Bush. It's certainly true that the majority of "conversions" are from Bush to Badnarik.
Any Kerry person that whines about not getting my vote needs to realize that there is no way I would ever vote for Kerry. They need to shut up and be happy I'm not voting for Bush.
You obviously don't get it. Terrorists don't hate us "because we're free." They hate us mostly because we globe trot around the world and kick everyones ass and don't mind our own business. Think I'm wrong? Go ahead and actually read some things from Osama Bin Laden. 9/11 is the culmination of a problem brewing over the last 50 years. Vote for real change. Vote Badnarik. The blood isn't on my hands. It's on peoples' hands who vote Kerry or Bush.
If you look through the file it has references to java files, pascal files, C++ files, and perl files. I don't get it. I understand that in this document just the hashes are listed to source code - but does this also imply that the source code is being distributed?
On an additional note, I see references to jpg, gif,and bmp files. I must be interpreting this files incorrectly. Why else would source code of 4+ high-level languages and 3+ image formats be in the same project?

You're an idiot. I hate working with people like you all day. It's an f-ing demo.

Which is why you write software that shows work.
All of my other games work on my x box. Halo 2 does not. Great. Fucking great.
...yet for some reason the birthrate isn't affected.

Yes, we live in a republic. This is the same reason we have the Senate. Ever heard of "mob rule"? It's a bad thing.
As for your example of X and Y. It is ridiculous. The winning candidate's party picks its electors.
Are you sure you're not a librarian, then? Vote Libertarian, dude.
If you coerce or intimidate a civilian population (potentially of one), you are guity of being a terrorist under section 802 of the PATRIOT ACT.
What if the Natural Law wacko got it? Yikes.
Realize that you can still do what you want under Badnarik.
Separate the idea of being "for something" with making your particular view law for all to follow.
I know you're probably trolling, but in case you've been living under a rock please check out Badnarik

Apparently, mod parent insightful on parent of parent not being informative.
Would you settle for a trail on paper? If so, give me 5 minutes while I get some reading in.

...because we know that a great way to relate to voters is to own a $5,000 walking scooter.
