    Whats GP ????

    DP doesn't stand for "to kill in the name of the justice" as you said.
    And I'm talking about consequence and dissuation.
    The criminal choose death by his action. The fetus doesn't choose death or live by his parent's acts.

    It's ok to kill people in the name of justice, just as long as there is no racial or financial bias?

    Death penality was chosen by law makers to be dissuasive (may be not so effective though). So the human can make a choice before making something against the law.

    A fetus, even unwanted, cannot choose between death or life. Human should be aware of nature's laws so they can choose the consequence.

  6. Re:Still for sale though on The VHS is Dead · · Score: 0
    ...When I rent a DVD from Blockbuster, I often find that the film just stops when it gets to a damaged part.
    I used to have the same problem but after cleaning the Disc everything works fine. Now I clean it before playing the movie and have no more stops or skips problems.

    ...For some reason, it won't let me bypass those ridiculous copyright notices. I have never had that problem with a VCR.
    Fast fowarding these notices with the VCR isn't take more time or at least the same time as they'll play with the DVD ??

    I dont have to rewind the DVD before take it back.

    The subject here is not about 747 it is about a Supersonic aircraft which will be taken by mostly rich peoples to save their precious time against any consideration for the protection of the ozone. Thats why I consider bigger aircraft (500+pax) vs supersonic (100-200pax), a better choice.

    If we want to go somewhere as fast as possible why don't we put effort in communication+virtual reality instead of building big polution factories like heavy aircraft ? You want to go in the Virgin Island in 2 hours ? Take the cab to the new VR-center downtown and enjoy the new real sensation of VR. Samething for conference and sales meeting. It's like you were there.

    Seriously confortable aircraft like airbus A380 (flash required) is a better choice on my humble opinion.
