Or in the early 1700's, when the Brits owned and controlled everything, slavery was status quo, and a whole race of people was considered to be sub-human, and treated accordingly.
You are referring, of course, to the Irish? Or was it the Native Americans? Oops! I forgot! Only one race in the history of the US has ever been mistreated. My Bad.
It's like state seatbelt and motorcycle helmet laws; it's not the state saying "These things are good for you" so much as "Ambulance rides are expensive and our emergency rooms are full."
My only response is to this comment: The person transported pays for the ambulance ride (it's part of the hospital bill) and the hospital will gladly take in another payment. More injuries == more money for the medical system.
Not "appropriated", but purchased by the gov't (the people) for fair market value. Just like when they take land for emminent domain, they have to compensate the owner fair market value, though they oftenm offer much more.
This won't work. Here in NH each town used to be resposible for the education of their population. The city of Claremont, NH had lost all of its jobs and most of its tax base. The people of the town, in the name of the town, then sued the people of the state in the name of the state to get more funding for education. Just funding, no further interference. When they won, the first thing they did with their money was build a new bandstand. In effect, the people of Claremont, NH stole money from me in Northwood, NH ("For the children!!!") so they could build a fucking gazebo.
Well, then I hope they also include the "Reverend" Ian Paisley, the Ulster Volunteer Force, the Ulster Defence Association, the Ulster Freedom Fighters, the Loyalist Volunteer Force, and the Orange Order, and the British Army. They've killed far more civilians with vastly superior guns and money than the IRA could even dream of.
10-15 minutes? Aren't you instructed now to show up at least and hour (or 2) before your flight to check in?
I remember buying a one-way ticket for a 10:30 flight at 10:25, paying with cash, and not having any problem at all. Can I do that today? Can I just buy my ticket with cash at 10:00 for a 10:30 flight?
is another reason why I will never fly again. I can drive, take the train or bus, or take a boat if I'm going overseas. Air travel (ast least from a US airport) is no longer an option.
what? i know many people with yahoo accounts... only one has numbers in the name, and even she may have put them there.
i get 500x more spam in my real email account than i do in my yahoo account, and that's the address i use when i sign up for anything.
i use mozilla, (not that nasty firefox,) so i don't see any ads, flash, or popups. and why the *hell* would anyone need more than maybe 100M of space with webmail? if i'm going to save something i save it on *my* hard drive.
The difference is the "paying" part. It's not free if you have to pay to be heard.

Many people like to claim that the breakup of AT&T meant nothing. But I have to ask. "Do you have a cell phone?"
You do know that car phones have been around since at least the 1970's, right? It would have been bigger and happened faster but the FCC wouldn't release the frequencies to AT&T. That's right, the big bad phone company was researching cellular phone service in 1947.
Um... the rich people will be the biggest losers. All those beutiful (and horribly expensive) ocean-side houses will be washed away. I'm not rich, but I live about 451 feet (about 138m) above sea level. The coasts and flooplains are nice to vist, but not to live.
OK, so they went to all that work to take apart the browser from the mailer and from the extensions, and now they're going to put it all back together? Why not just go back to work on the mozilla project?
Your assertion is based on the assumption that a majority (or even a significant minority) are aware of what the RIAA is doing. If it's not on the front page, the sports page, or the comics page, most people won't even know it's happenning. Until it affects JQ Public directly, he won't even notice it happenning to his neighbor. Such is the attention span of pretty much everyone in the world.
First, shoot the point-man in the belly and a long, slow, agonizing death happens. Other members of the unit will try to save their guy. The sniper then picks them off one-by-one, safe in his hidey-hole.
The war was suppposed to cost us less than 2 billon dollars (1.7 IIRC), the rest would be paid for by Iraqi oil.
We were supposed to be greeted as liberators, with barely a shot fired. There are now 2067 Coalition troops dead (not counting Iraqis) and 6,770 US soldiers wounded and sent home, but we never hear about them.
Vice President Cheney (March 16, 2003) said, "My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators... I think it will go relatively quickly... in weeks rather than months."
Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld on Feb. 7, 2003 said, "It is unknowable how long that conflict will last. It could last six days, six weeks. I doubt six months."
Former Budget director Mitch Daniels (March 28, 2003) stated, "The United States is committed to helping Iraq recover from the conflict, but Iraq will not require sustained aid."
I left it as soon as all of those hideous large animated ads showed up. It became totally unusable on dialup.
I have a dialup connection with 5 computers using a single dialup to connect to the internet and I use my.yahoo.com. Mozilla + adblock + flashblock = no ads!
And you promise not to cry foul or complain when Microsoft include a version of every single application type included in a "standard" Linux distro including their own version of OpenOffice?
Big difference: Fedora Core includes all these apps, *most* of which were not made by the Fedora group, or Red Hat. When MS includes everthing I need, from 3d party vendors, then I'll stop crying foul.
According to this: Deep Lake Water Cooling the city of Toronto is already being cooled courtesy of Lake Ontario. Central Air for a whole city... go figure.

The most effective form of data sharing so far seems to have been the storage of that data on laptops leaving the building ...

It's in the word "Aeuronautics"
Galileo Galilei said nothing about the round or flatness of the Earth. He spoke of the Sun and Earth, so you are still wrong, and GP is still right.

On the bright side, you'll die right away. The rest of us will freeze, starve, and suffer in many unimaginable ways until we die...

Does Clinton hate black people too? That's the logical corollary to all the accusations flying around about Bush.
Bush doesn't hate black people. It's not a race issue. It's an economic issue. He doesn't hate poor people, he just doesn't care one way or the other.
As he told the storm ravaged people of Biloxi: "The Salvation Army will take care of you."
