Yea, it's propaganda. Something that if you need, generally means you're doing bad shit (eg. Dow Chemical Green/Eco Ads that kick started the currently greenie mania circa 2004).
The fact that they exist at all is telling.
And OT: what is this bullshit about the Netherlands banning artifical trans-fats? WTF is an artificial trans-fat?
If people stuck to OpenGL instead of the DirectX miasma, we wouldn't have this issue - it'd be more likely we'd have more ports of games to Linux, and hence, vendor interest in supporting 3D on the platform.
It's sad, perhaps OpenGL would have evolved faster had Microsoft implemented it for Windows 9x.
I think his point is that if you look at the Google Cache and the actual page on bing.com, the entire discussion is gone. Just the original question. The rest, poof gone!
Actually, part of the Massachusetts 1998 Gun Law stated that providing a handgun to any child under the age of 18, even for the purposes of instruction, was a felony.
So, no - we couldn't even do that (I think said clause has since been rescinded, though).
The main danger from ecstacy usage is dehydration. People on ex will literally dance themselves to death. I made myself water-boy at a rave once. First task I did was fill an empty backpack with water and visit all my raver friends while they were dancing. Every time I asked one of the dancers, sweating buckets, if they were thirsty, I got a "No, I'm cool" and had to shove an open bottle at them and make them drink it.
I've suffered the effects of severe dehydration - I know it's like and how quick it can come on you. To someone on a stimulant like ex, they'll keep going until their blood is thicker than the oil in my childhood 66 Corvair. And then they die.
I had a buddy who went from not drinking at all, turn 21 and drink himself to borderline cirrohsis in less than 2 years. This same individual has been smoking a pound of pot and hash for a month for 16 years will no similar effect.
I concede it's entirely possible he's killed off some brain cells and gained 30 pounds he may or may not have as he approaches the mid-age spread...
Except that my possession of marijuana is of no threat to you (presuming I also am not liable to drive under the influence). But then the threat of that is always ever present, and more people drink than smoke pot (and will continue to be the case under legalization, I'm sure).
My owning a nuclear bomb is a DIRECT threat to you, and hence, ownership is legitimately curtailed.
That's exactly how you're supposed to watch a 3D movie.
Unfortunately, for most cinemas, there is a sweet spot in the theater where you have to sit where watching 3D is effortless, and for the Imax cinema I went to, that was back-row center. Anything else, and the parallax issues cause the 3d effect to look like shit and increase the nausea/headache effect.
Said friends have no self-respect if they beg and pander themselves. And their women will have no respect for them either. It's time for them to stop being pussies.
I don't know how obvious it is (was). My first two digital cameras didn't come with LCDs or LCD preview. They were simply digital versions of film cameras. I'd

The only reason the English lost the American Colonies was geography, the weeks required to move men and materials across the Atlantic.
Parishes is what the state of Louisiana calls their "counties", Ie. Jefferson Parish, etc.

.ZIP (or at least the Microsofties of the world) *WHY* be different?
Seriously - the world has standardized on

Oh please. The Windows kernel is arguably one of the better kernels ever written.
All the rest of the crap on top of it, not so much...
And how many is that, exactly?
Yah, you might want to get that grungy green slime-mold checked out...

How the fuck do you "cut" marijuana other than with typical garden shears?

In the United States, you can brew 200 gallons of beer for personal consumption every year.
You need a license from the BATF for greater quantities or to distill spirits.
Are you ever going to finish that movie? Lol.

Nice rant, btw. Hits entirely too close to home for me.

Maybe that's just me.

When speaking of feminists, one has to distinguish from the man-hating win-at-all-costs feminists.

The first google link would tend to disagree with you:

At least one article agrees with you:

And my own anecdotal survey of my friends with children would also agree with you (in my case a 3:1 female to male ratio out of a population of 40)
