    1) Because New Orleans is the focal point for the shipping routes (rivers) for America's "hartland"?
    2) Do you own a car? Have you seen the gas prices? That's not only because of the damaged/missing oil platforms, but also to great extend because of the damaged processing facilities in .... [drum roll] New Orleans.
    3) Seeing the lists of cities you named I'm starting to guess you're being sarcastic. For example LA: earthquakes, NYC: terrorisme, Seattle: being so close to Redmond.

    There are some things the federal government has to do, just to make sure America can function as a country.

    Yes, just try it. You'll get a lot more girls when your complaining about your Windows box, then when your showing of your online uptime display.
    Sending the box back to Dell also helps to increase the amount of time, you can invest in a relationship.

    ...a single atom of hydrogen at coordinates 5.28E25, 1.92883E18E298, 42 contains information and, some might argue, is information itself. It not only contains the information of where it is, but the information of where it is not. Watch its path and it will tell you what has influenced it in the past.

  24. Re:I, for one, on Wireless Hijacker Dealt First UK Punishment · · Score: 1

    No, it's not the same damn thing.

    The problem we're running into is: if a person yanks the router out of the cellophane it came in, plugs it in and goes on a six month vacation... can he make a REASONABLE assumption his network is secure?

    If there are no special laws in place, I think this is what it commes down to.
    For the record: I believe that the user can't make that assumption and that he's a dumb basterd.
