    That story is false, and you would have know that if you followed the link the grandparent posted.

    As for not talking ultimatus it was the danish people who helped the Jews - not the goverment.

    Our goverment paies you money if you cant find a job provided you want a job. Heck they will even help you find one.

    That is what we get for paying 50% in tax.

    A good advice. Also as a side effect he will know bad litterature later one and will develop taste of his own.

    You might want to have your child/brother read Donald Duck (is it is created by an evil empire) this is fun for people to read so they will try (even if they have to guess the words)

    And if/when he wants to read past bedtime ignore it, the important part is that he reads.

    Think about it, at least

    It is the choice of two persons if they will mate - the sociaty is trying to prevent people not able to make the choice (to young) from doing so.

    It is a human right to procreate - it is not a human right to smoke - and no we ask them to stop smoking so non-smokers can enjoy the air too.

    Since most of the replies are crap i am going to post an advice that has helped me learn to read very well:
    Read as many books as posible - start with the really easy and move on. In the beginning your brother will properly need someone to read the words to him - he will then reconise them later. A good tool might be festival

    As for natual selection post above:
    Our society is rich - it can afford (and should) aford to help everybody, how wish to be helped

    That is correct - but only because we where having an election, since the goverment was reelected dont expect a change in policy.

  17. Re:Is TrollTech trolling? on Trolltech to Extend Dual-License to Qt/Windows · · Score: 1

    IANAL
    Copyright takes effect on your own work and any derived work - so if the qt software is an editor search engine etc then your can create what ever you want - but if parts of the qt program is used in the new program the gpl starts to have effect.

  18. Re:Solution seems simple on Opening the Public Doman to Orphan Books · · Score: 1

    You're making this sound like a public utility or something

    That is exactly what it is ".. to advance science and the art"

    Copyright was meant to help the public - not the copyright holders

    as for term i say 2 years - ofcause any new version gets its own 2 years - that way forcing new versions (that be movies, books, software etc)
    to come out or the publisher to loose his/hers source of income.

    If they dont want to make new books they sould not make any money.
