Umm... could you post a linky to her (Margaret St. Pierre) picture? Have looked all over google but couldn't find one darn image! Got her addy and stuff though...
I don't mean accents & dialects as base languages.
It's the things like 'colour' and mutilation to 'color' that's weird because it conveys positive - quite the contrary.
It's all related my friend. Back in the days when the forefathers moved from England to US. They wanted to be safe from domination of British products and mass production units. What we call today as "dumping".
The ingeneous idea was to make everything in the US. So you have door-knobs here that twist the opposite. Taps in the US turn the otherway round to close and open then, the language alphabets were changed and so on. A by-product was the resulting 'artificial' creation of a market segment.
Fast-forward to the future. ClearChannel. What's it doing? buyind radio stations all over the US. Why? To create the general idea that radio in America sucks these days.
Are they aiming this at you? They'd be foolish to think that you with all your moeny to buy whatever you wanted would be subdued by their trash.
Instead, they are targetting your kids. They know in 10 years the 12 years olds of today will 'realize' how trashy radio has 'evolved' - with respect to their generation. In ten years, they are the ones who will be growing up to realize that buying satellite radio is worth it.
Voila, with a little bit of patience you have successfully created for yourself a 'new' market for exploitation.
And that my friend, is the connection to 'breaking' things down to finer grains. just becuase you have ten forms of English, doesn't mean you recognize them all. There was no true concept of American English (or more precisely, "I talk American") 30 years ago.
Oh, and about ClearChannel, they are associated with one of the satellite radio channel. Weird you would think, eh? But no when the bigger picture is presented. If you think it's too far fetched, try looking at the tobacco companies - they plan their market creation and buyer propoganda, right from when the kid is 4 years old. With TV and billboards. Oh whatever... have a great day fellas!
If you've bought other stuff in the US - especially plastic and 'die-cast' metal good in the US - most of them are (coincidentally) Chinese made and are chintzy compared to what you'd have got 20 years ago.
Don't believe me? Go and have a look at the detail in the dinky cars your kid plays with and then compare that with the ones you played with as a kid.
More importantly, observer the radiator and the doors. You'll know what I am talking about.
PS Not trying to be racist here, just giving an observation over how saving a little money here and there really hits on things ultimately.
Well didn't they (NASA) say that a rock travelled all the way home up North with the 'fossil' of a martian microbe in it? While the rest of the world challenged the hypothesis, it was the excuse for NASA to send the rovers to Mars, but of course they never found anything there either, and the 'excitment' of robots on mars kind overtook the whole original goal/mission from the 'peoples' mind.
Explains why Infineon Execs just got the book thrown at them... eh... mate?
Not to mention outsourcing... for cheaper (quality) products is the way all corporates are going.
Heh..heh..
MS will ensure that most 'new' machines deviate so much from the IBM PC compatible standard that they inherently cannot run FireFox without a gazzilion BIOS updates:-)
The day 'they' moved base to China is the day everything got re-branded.
Look at the stuff in WalMart and you'll what I am talking about. The overall effective standard off living in America is actualy *down*. It has increased only for the folks at the top.
If you've ever touched an IBM ThinkPad - you'll notice how 'singular' that laptop feels. Even if you pick it up from one corner, the damn thing will not show any duress. Now try that with a Sony/Latitude/Inspiron/Acer (which comes close)/Toshiba (higher models come close but those are exponentially expensive).
Slashdot Mirror
Or do they really mean SkyNet!?? Fu*ktards didn't see that one coming at QC now did they??? Or maybe....~pzbtpt~...~pztpbt~....aaaaaghhhhhh!!!

Both those images have gone, maybe you can dig them from your cache and repost them somewhere for the unfortunate ones ;-) ?
Are you crazy! Check out those hot nails of hers! And to think that she codes with them :-/

Just say the fockin chip sucks! (as do most things from with "intel inside" these days)
Especially when it's reported by The "Christian Science" Monitor
a 'beautiful' a beowulf cluster...
My bad! That's what I meant, I did state that explicilty in another post somewhere.
...you'd think people would just pipe-down and take the free stuff...
...finally, peoples hunt for the (hidden) Star Wars (Kid) is over?

The ONLY English, is English FROM England. The rest are products of people's complacency.
bush uses a notebook!? Hell I thought he was still at the "chalk & slate" state!

That's like saying: it's got the ability to piss it's pants when it lacks a toilet!
