Yes, because some 16 year old twit notifying her boyfriend (and probably the rest of the plane) of what kind of sandwich she just ate is much more important than notifying the pilots of a hijacking...
No, CNET's front page says (direct copy-paste) "Insider Secrets: Firefox sucks......unless you've hacked it to make it really cool. We'll show you how."

I really would (for many reasons), but that would require a full university upgrade. He's the only professor for this course, and it is a major requirement.:)
I've got a professor that DRMs (I assume that's what it is, xpdf asks for a password even when I'm just reading) his PDFs, so every time I want to view an updated schedule or grades I have to switch to a windows box.
Look, there *was* circumstancial evidence for the "Greg Duffy" thing... i.e. just enough to make it a discussion. I agree that fearmongering is not the way to go. I appreciate that you looked into the issue (and my first instinct is to trust your explanation, that is was a DNS issue).
However, if this is Google's PR method, I think you are kind of asking for it! In the absence of information, the internet community will speculate until the cows come home. I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying that's reality. Even though I said on my site that I thought Google didn't do anything underhanded I bet a lot of people were still not convinced. Google can do a little better than this, and although you have been fairly nice to me (thanks) this response is a little flamebaity for PR. Please understand that I mean no offense, it's just constructive criticism. Even if everything you say is true, a representative of the company should always at least attempt to sugar coat something like your last paragraph.
Also, on a more personal note, maybe Google should embrace the people that are involved in researching these problems instead of using this broken communications policy. I know that in my case I contacted you guys 5 *months* ago about the Google Print problem I described and never got any followup except for my t-shirt (which I really like). I have some great ideas about possible solutions to the problem I described, and as far as I can see Google has not fixed the root of the problem. When are you guys going to contact me?

s/passed/past/
I suspect it is (in reality) much higher than that, given the password/key/combo choosing standards of the general public.

Don't assume that each possibility is equally likely .
Firefox 1.5b1, same thing. No Google toolbar, no extensions except the defaults.
I was pointing out how sexist it is to assume that McMahon is a man ... notice: "he says" ...
he says [...] A little sexist,
... you do know that Judge McMahon is a woman, yes? Now put your foot into your mouth : )
Uhhh
Dude, didn't you hear? Apple is developing Rosetta now ...
Save yourself some trouble, check out PingTunnel. :)
Hmmm ... I don't know! _Do_ you?
I assume you are trolling, but here you go.
Only the human race is not expendable.
Why not? The universe would most likely get along just fine without it (for quite a long time).
If I had a penny for every person who has doesn't can't remember that...
... well, that would be my $0.02.
If I had a penny for every unnecessary verb in that sentence
Have you seen the wives' husbands? :p
And now it's "Wired Amends Stories With Fabricated Quotes" ...
Now, why would Wired add in their own fabricated quotes after all of this trouble with Delio?
RTFP. Where in "first in-space test of an ion propulsion engine" do you see this problem?

Look at the "Today's top stories" box.

I'm not so sure that people bling from birth will benefit ...
I think they will. After all, the rich keep gettin' richer, and the poor keep gettin' poorer.
... but ... is this really the frist post?
Wow.
Works for me, Eclipse 3.1 on GTK ... what are you smoking? :)
How do we know that we are even here?!?
