Comic shops are an easy target. But even the most famous of stereotypes have glowing exceptions.
Every year, the Eisner Awards honor shops that stand out for retail excellence. They don't give them to folks selling comics out of basements.
We won the award in 2006. Here was our video submission. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3uOt-l4YJs (in 2006 YouTube video quality:-)
It seems to me (which admittedly is very limited) that spam comments are only as valuable as google/users allow them to be.
Most users can recognize a spam comment and ignore them, but Google can recognize links. Make links have "nofollow" in them.
I don't find it interesting at all. Slashdot has been very liberal in its readership for a long time.
As we get closer and closer to the election we're going to see voices get louder and more people being more involved.
The Boston Globe reported articles back in 2000 about Bush's desertion and it got almost no media coverage. Now its coming back around and both parties are using military service as an issue. The Republicans began its swift boat "research" before Kerry even began his campaign.
If this one memo (among all the records and documents and reports already released) is indeed not authentic, I can totally see why the White House would produce it in an attempt to discredit the issue of Bush's military desertion altogether. Plus it would add, and already has, fuel to the fire of a topic that distracts from the failures of Bush's term in office.
Proportional spacing is one of the claims to this memo being fake. But IBM has been able to type proportionally since 1941.
