It appears all of the source links are broken. I would like read them because Liquidrage is correct based upon just the statements claimed in that list.

Hybrids in SUVs & trucks would likely be more practical to consumers and manufacturers.
A hybrid version of a vehicle that already gets good gas mileage in traditional form (like a fuel-sipping Civic) will take longer for the consumer to recoup the additional cost of the hybrid engine. Hybrid versions of low gas mileage traditional vehicles (like trucks & SUV's) would reap benefits much sooner if they can perform proportionally as well as current smaller hybrid vehicles over their traditional counter-parts.
Also, the margins are generally higher for trucks & SUV's; I would see more incentive for manufacturers to sell them regardless of traditional or hybrid powertrains.
I apologize because I remembered the actual reason 'why' being in the article, but it wasn't. I believe the reason I recall was an opinion from a blog or group that I presently cannot seem to find.
Although, a reasoning can be inferred by examining the ending of the article. Microsoft supplied server-side controls can be configured in such a manner that they will render non-conformant xhtml regardless of the xhtmlConformance attribute. One easy example is the rendering of the 'target' attribute in xhtml 1.1 strict.
The IDE should not expose this property if the attribute is set or there should at least be a compilation warning/error if the property is used.
Of course nevermind that VS2005 defaults to strict XHTML 1.1 code.
I wish it defaulted to strict XHTML. This is at the top of all of the default aspx templates I've seen on any VS2005 install:
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transition al.dtd" This MSDN article explains why and links to how to change the default.
You can disable it in Windows (2000/XP, as far as I know).

I totally agree regarding the proprietary interface. I don't care whether M$, Apple, or anyone else is doing it. I really hope there is a standards body somewhere developing an open interface for this.
I don't want to spend $20,000+ for a vehicle with a portable media interface that may become obsolete while the vehicle is still in good condition. A $2k or $4k computer with proprietary hardware doesn't hurt as bad.
Yeah, I can keep buying aftermarket head units to keep up, but most DIN spec models look like shit in the OEM dash. And in some cases with the integrated nav units and climate control, its impossible or extremely expensive to use aftermarket.
Hehe...must have been through some hell weather if you had to junk your car...
I only have to scrape windows a few times during the season. Usually after a daytime dusting while parked at work; I have a garage at night. Maybe it's just lifestyle differences. I have a sweet job only 2.6 miles from my place. Never have to drive far or get on the highways in bad weather. No traffic.
It has to be global warming because I never see snow on the ground longer than 3 days after a storm up in Westminster.
I haven't been living here but just a little over two years, so I can't say I've experienced any of those events. Maybe I'm due for a rude awakening, but so far it's been a pleasure.
The places you mentioned are nice, but pros and cons to living there exist as well.
Contrary to what you see on South Park, the Denver metro area is not snowy mess year round. Anybody who lives here can vouch that it may snow 2 feet, but disappear in 2 days. It's so arid that the snow literally evaporates, unlike many cities where it just stays on the ground all season. Thanks to Orographic lift and Chinook winds the winters are rather mild. The east side of the state normally gets hit hard. I can handle a few days of snow vs a 6 months of sweaty humidity where I used to live. 100 degrees F here is a walk in the park.
As for work, Westminster is ~20 minutes to either Denver or Boulder with plenty of employers. It costs less to live in a suburb like Westminster compared to directly in either of those two cities. If not, Ft. Collins (#1 on the list) is an hour away.
I relocated to Westminster,CO (24th) from Atlanta and love it. Westminster is almost halfway between Boulder and Denver. Many tech companies are nearby: Sun, Avaya, Ball Aerospace, & Level 3 to name a few. The weather is great. Commercial expansion is at it's highest. Nice view and close proximity to the mountains.

I guess different strokes for different folks...
