In a comparitive way as to the cost of food and wine then its not really that bad atall , what is $30 in food a meal and a couple bottles of wine which i would have otherwise paid to suffer the flight. On the other hand the food and drink on airplanes is Completly overpriced and well im sure you can figure out the problems with the ethics of pricing it so high to a captive audiance
sorry that got totaly skewed by my cat... ee too true , I was more ranting though,but i used to help(before i moved house) in my spare time with people in who would be vunerable to such groups and i have a short fuse for them and storys about them. Though they will try and hurt people in our positions with litegation and legal action,as there is little chance they could get us to happily part with our gold , plus every win against groups like this helps us all...

You are 100% correct in stating those are held belifes;)(whatch out for the lawyers) I am in germany however , and am free to say that the religious heads are all a bunch of thieves , known to be liers , base the lie on some sub par sci-fi , and really should stop trying to abuse peoples rights and stop making money this way. (If you would like to sue me scientoligy , then please do so , its easy to get my info if you try. I wont make it easy for you though.)
True, but i pause to comment on other religions as I may not belive in them but i still consider them religions to some degree. Im in Germany so im on easy footing here saying they are not a religion and have been ruled to not be. And i take a strong issue with the bastardisation of the word science , i think its offensive the way they abuse the term , however i would far rather they called themselves load-of-bo*l*ocksoligy as its far more fitting then the sullying of the term science
i thought the goal of a church was to spread its faith , where does a copyright case fit into that , i could understand perhaps if they tried a libel or slander case against someone , but copyright ? does that not defeat the point of spreading the word of whatever it is they belive.
I would not call scientoligy a church , I do know the history of the scam and its amazing how many people got dragged into this hoax , the work of a sub par sci-fi writter trying to make a bit of cash(perhaps it is a church then j/k)
With the strength of the Dutch high court behind the decision i find it unlikly a reversal will hapen , which is a dammed good thing. "Although copyright resides under Article 1 of the First Protocol of EDHR and can therefore be regarded as a human right, this does not exempt copyright from being balanced against the right to freedom of information.""
I have been thinking of moving to Holland for a few years and I feel I may just do it eventualy if the court keeps churning out decisions like this. Freedom of information is very importent to secure an even footing for people in this world , We do not need to create another poverty line.Most importantly Companys / organisations should not be able to sue people into submission to keep all their dirty little secrets quiet.
Mod me down if you must , but scientolgy is a scam and from storys i have read
it is also a dangerous organisation . I am thankfull that Germany disallows the Organisation charitable status here , i dont agree with some of germanys policys on these matters but sometimes it is for the best
Honestly if your going to troll , please have the manners to remember to do it as an annon coward;) I shall appoligise for my bad spelling , if you appoligise for being rude
All i ask is that MS would play fair and stop trying to rewrite standerds just as they have a little supposed problem with some parts of them. Standerds are so very important for a fair market , and we cant have one company just deciding to make their own rules , and i know MS is not the only company guilty of this , But They are in the lime-light today
Well all we do know is that they copied folder organiser cards. As to who got to it first , it apears simulbrowse/netcaptor made it first , unless some university browser had then prior tabs. Odd to the think that MS has yet to catch up with a product based on it that has been out for about 8 years
aha,I thank you for refreshing my memory a little, I seem to remember a few experimental browser at that time with tab support. I did a bit more reading after posting , and it certainly apears to have been a sweeping at the time , All i remember for certain was that opera was not the first internet browser to use tabbing , But it did certainly do it properly
That is very true , i remember that being one of the best features of os/2 froma navigation point .;) but to be super pedantic , does anyone know the name of the guy who invented the tabbing system for file folders (as in , the physical object), the ones i have loads of laying around that im too lazy to digitise
IIRC tabbed browsing first apeared in NetCaptor an alt IE GUI browser , then in opera 4. Wikipedia seems to agree with me http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetCaptor
well to be fair Eisner is a git.. however,
the winnie the pooh cartoons have been going on for longer , not to mention how they revised the grimms tales etc and added a sugary gloss which frankly rips out alot of the meaning. I was raised reading these books or having them read to me and it is just wrong that they changed the core meaning of the story to fit it in to some sugary gloss fantasy ideoligy they have going , Perhaps im speaking a little from the cuff and letting my feelings over-throw my judgment but i strongly feel that if you can not stay true to the meaning of a work then you should not try to recreate it and should do something entierly new. (yes that also applys to lucas remakes )
Read the jungle book , or some of the other classics that have had a disny treatment . Not all Disny works do this,, Fantasia is brilliant for example,, (a creation not an alterd work) but most do.
Im stuborn as hell sometimes and very opinionated so i appoligise if i offend anyone in my occasional(read:regular) rants.Though this is one i dont see my opinion ever changing ( Note: i dont count the pixar films as realy disny )
Classics should remain as such We dont need more awfull remaks (Time-machine,planet of the Apes) Or stupid special effects added as an excuse to hike the charges of a new DVD release(Lucas film) Or books striped of the core meaning turned into an L.C.D film(IROBOT, Aladin etc)
We do however need great origional works or well done conversions (Brazil, The origional 3 star wars films,The usual suspects,Monty python movies and many more)
Ah well mod this down if you must , i needed to get this rant off my chest
#As much as i agree with you in principle (IE: i think everything i say is great) It is the mods decision as to where to put the mod points , if they think what i said was redundant and overrated then they are free to mod that way , if you think its wrong then please use your meta moderation if you have any . dont add more trolls to slashdot please
Its honestly not that bad normaly to me anyway (i would say i have a rather good ear for music), on a few clasical pieces i have noticed some changes , but normaly nothing atall , then i ussualy buy my classical music on CD anyway
Dear Mr Lucas For the love of *insert deity* Stop this,It is really annoying. Mr Lucas your works are classics and should remain such (the origional movies are atleast) please stop defecating on your own masterworks
I think i speak for a large percent of the people here when i say please stop it
You are doing the same as Di$ny does to my childhood faviourits and completly bastardisng them So for the love of god please give it a rest
I will admit 3d movies do sound cool , however please make a new movie and dont *insert explitive* star wars IV V VI anymore
oh btw , do what the hell you want to I and II I honestly dotn care about those (Destroyer droids look cool though , so leave them alone)

hee your probably right .Though you never know where these (nothing to do with)Science()oligists are lurking ;)
I would settle for an appoligy from GPL violaters and a release of the code , Blowing up the computers of the copyright violaters is a bit harsh.
Advocat general works fine aswell if your from the UK atleast , not to be confused with "egg liquer" drunkend millitary officials though
