“Get your facts first, and then you can distort them as much as you please.”
Mark Twain
Truth should be self-evident and able to stand on it's own merit. It does not need to be defended and is not culturally relevant. Truth is universally relevant.Our interpretation of truth is what screws everything up.
Good point. If Net Neutrality ever fails in favor of providers offering streaming service to THEIR streaming content and filtering out competition, then Netflix will long for the days when they had a business model that cost an extra $700 mil per year to give them access to customers.

You don't have permission to access/opensuse/distribution/10.3/iso/torrent/openSUSE-10.3-GM-DVD-i386.torrent on this server.
Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) Server at linux.nssl.noaa.gov Port 80
So the torrent file (which is either missing or not permissible to access) is hosted on a Red Hat server for SuSE? NICE!

When will we get a +1 sarcastic rating?
