Being a right-winger, I would not go after them. I don't have any problem believing that it is possible that God could have used evolution and creationism to accomplish the task, and I think both arguments should be equally put forth and let every individual decide for themselves.
I for one would be interested to see this. Because I am a fan of science and all that has been learned over time I am sure this exhibit is fascinating and educational.
Happy Birthday! I hope on this day we can celebrate together your success, for tomorrow we will crush you. If we can't crush you then we'll come pee in your flowerbed. If that doesn't work...we'll...we'll...we'll launch our own search engine. It will have a really cool Blue Screen of Death look and feel. The same feel you'll have when you feel the combined power of Microsoft and AOL knocking at your door.
Muh ha ha ha ha ha.
If you would like to surrender, you can reach me at billgates@gmail.com.
I figure sooner or later I'll find something that hasn't been hacked to pieces. If not, I'll protest and stop using the Internet! Ha...THAT will get their attention
I work for a company that produces an Anti-Spyware product that got bitch-slapped in court some time back by Gator for calling Gator Spyware. Now...WE all know what Spyware is. They know what Spyware is, but (and please, correct me if I'm wrong, because I might be) until a court of law legally defines Spyware, it seems to me that YAHOO and everyone else can load your machine up without an ounce of legal liability.
Hey...no harm, no foul. I double-checked with the Mrs. She said it was about 7 weeks, so please accept my apology for speaking out with the wrong dates.
Hey...I'm not afraid to admit I was wrong. It would only be the 2nd time though:)
I hardly consider anything from Dr. Spock science. I'll stick to the two doctors that we have used who had the machines to hear much sooner than 12 weeks.
I am a Christian...but my definition of proof in this case is that my ears and those of our doctor heard a little heart, and low and behold, nine months later, a kid popped out.
My definition has nothing to do with proof or faith. There is room for both. I didn't need faith to know my wife was pregnany...the doctor had the proof.
I agree that life does start at conception. Having been through the birth of three of my own. Being able to hear the heartbeat just days after conception is enough proof for me.
I'm in favor of Stem Cell Research, but only on a limited bases. I'm not anti-science, but I don't like the possibilities that unrestricted testing could mean.
Sadly, back in 1999 I sat next to a guy on a flight who was telling me "I have a new technology that will allow you to send high-speed Internet over power lines. I just got the patent, now I'm looking for investors."
I thought to myself "Wow...he might actually sucker someone into investing in this wild idea" and laughted it off. I certainly had an attack of the dumb-shits that day.
I am in agreement with you. I believe in creationism and intelligent design. Having said that, I don't mind going along with the notion that God (who I believe was the creator) could have used many things that scientists hold true and call "evolution" and the "Big Bang" to get us to where we are today. I think there is enough evidence to suggest that I can't be closed-minded about this. I for one have no problem believing that the earth is millions or billions of years old. However, I have friends who subscribe to the "Young Earth" theory which I find an interesting theory, but not very likely and not based on scientific evidence.
I don't try to tell people that don't believe like I do that they are wrong...I just want to have the same right to believe that which I do without being called a moron, fool, etc. just because someone else doesn't agree with it.
Tell ya what...in San Fran, this might have been a good thing. I saw at least TWO guys wearing skirts. Not kilts mind you, but SKIRTS! Was the BoothBob there by mistake...or was it planned to attract the diversity that makes San Fran so cool.
Not that there is anything wrong with that...
Firefox has gotten the attention it deserves, and people will continue to talk about it and more will continue to convert from Internet Exploder. If nothing else the world now knows without a shadow of a doubt that Open Source is good, reliable technology, and superior in many cases. I'd say that Firefox has done what others have not been able to do so well...get people's eyes of MS and on to something else.
There was quite a lot of buzz around the Novell booth today regarding OpenSuSE in San Fran at Linux World. I am not a Novell employee, but as my booth is right across from theirs, the interest from the public was obvious...then again it could have been the pea-green free hats!
Darl will come out and say "Linus Torvalds is the greatest hacker in the world, and I am proud to call him my son" and claim the idea for Linux was really Darl's that was shared with Linus around the breakfast table.
I think they have to. Open Source IS_NOT going away, nor is closed-source. I think the bigger issue here is convincing people that closed-source isn't bad, evil, etc., It is what it is, and you make the choice to use it. Being told I am port of the problem if I use closed-source isn't realistic. I believe because I use BOTH open and closed source, I am part of the solution because I am proving to my boss that both can play nice in the same environment and that he and the rest of the organization should seriously look at Open Source alternatives. If you have to end up paying for something because an OSS tool doesn't do what you want, fine. However, if it does, save the money and put it to better use.
My point was this...as a parent, it excites me that my kids have an opportunity that I didn't when I was younger.
And, since you posted as an anonymous coward...I would like to thank you for your contribution. Fucking spineless bastard. Piss off and boil your head.
This is why I like technology. My seven-year-old will think this is just very, very cool. Perhaps one day we'll actually find little green men. If mean heck...if we can hear this, just think of how much more is to come! AWESOME!
Slashdot Mirror
They have been involved in Cybercrime for years. Each time they force-feed a copy Windows down people's throats. Made them rich.
I'll be praying for you... (it is a joke...please take as intended.)
Feel free to leave this "hellhole." Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Let the flaming begin...

Dear Google,
Happy Birthday! I hope on this day we can celebrate together your success, for tomorrow we will crush you. If we can't crush you then we'll come pee in your flowerbed.

Aw hell. I guess I'm going to have to use AOL then. Do they run on Linux? HA HA HA

Let's see them attack my text-based browser!

It's called a License. Oh...wait, say what Mr. McBride...no UNIX code in Linux? In that case, "I don't need no stinking license...or insurance!"

I'm sure glad Special Interest wasn't allowed to influence US policy. BOHICA
