I'm sure he has some way to prove he didn't live in the Soviet Union from 1969 to 1985 or whatever it was.
I see the remedial education classes didn't stick. Why should the victim of a falsehood have to prove anything?
In Internet terminology, a troll is a person who posts inflammatory messages on the internet, such as on online discussion forums, to disrupt discussion or to upset its participants./wiki
I could only read halfway through page two of TFA because the article was so trollish.

Congratulations. You have won today's WHOOSH! Award.
Don't know about the US, but in UK law repeating a libel is still a libel, even if you are doing so to state that it is false (former Prime Minister John Major won a libel case on exactly this basis). The idea of taking a libel action is to *stop things being said*, not to have them repeatedly denied.
Certainly in the UK (or a rather Region 2) the DVD Special Edition of Citizen Kane includes the Mercury WotW production (and other play, the Happy Prince). Fascinating listening. The first half or so is in the 'we interupt this programme for an eye-witness account' style after that the style switches to more a conventional format.
On reflection let me rephrase that: there is no effective means for enforcing this (or for that matter, any other) policy beyond 'gee wouldn't it be great if we could all just get along'.
there's a very strong policy against legal threats. What sort of harrassment were you talking about?
Track down and look at the behavior of the editor DreamGuy and the RFC associated with him.
He's still editing and producing hopelessly skewed articles. The two people he laid into walked away.
Yep. The A320's operating manual clearly stated (and presumably still states) that the aircraft required 7 secs ro reach full power. The pilot performed his stunt in a space that gave him only 3 secs.
Indeed, the A320 is not so sophisticated that - when a Russian pilot let his 13 year old son 'take the wheel' - it could prevent him flying it into the ground from 25,000 feet.
Um, yes it can.
Bit choppy from time to time and the two cities with auction houses are a pain, but not enough to stop me levelling two chars into the 50s (so far).
Probably worth pointing out that relying, as Snopes does, on Alistair Campbell for a rebuttal of a story involving Blair is like relying on a Philip Morris spokesman to give even-handed information about tobacco and lung cancer.
I'd believe Shirley Williams way before I'd believe Campbell.
Well yes, but it is the kind of marketing ploy that says: "Our brand is important to us, so we will have zero tolerence of hookey copies of unfinished software doing the P2P rounds".
Most marketing (as opposed to selling) is about brand development and protection.
A friend works for an outfit called ciao (www.ciao.co.uk). Tail end of last year she was well chuffed and telling me about how that had rolled out a pop-under campaign (she seriously believed that people would not mind them).
I tried to explain that if pop-unders are the answer they are asking the wrong question but after a long evening of berating (I can be unrelenting in the face of idiocy) she eventually cracked and said "Well, we don't care because Dell just paid us £25,000 for a pop-under campaign".

It would be a bit tricky for history to be written by those who did not survive.
Oh. Dear. God.
Can it be used for dowsing water in poverty stricken Third World nations as well?

Children play games! More at 10.
Well making it more trouble than it is worth to crack *is* the objective of encryption (or has Phil Zimmerman been lying all these years?)...

NPOV: The cancer at the heart of wikipedia.
Well, actually, no. That's the sclerosis. The cancer is the lack of a zero-tolerance policy on harrassment.

This has now been reported many times over on Apple Discussions as resolving the java problems.

I assume you can give a cite for this "Huge tax hike for the benefit of health"?
