If you get rage-infected blood onto a cricket bat, you won't be able to use it to play cricket without taking serious risks. Blood on bat, transfers to ball, transfers to hands... just not worth taking the risk. Baseball bat to kill, cricket bat to play cricket.

Twist on DNA Privacy

I think it is clearly stated that they didn't have this mans DNA on record. And that they aren't holding the DNA of random people who've not been arrested before etc.. The DNA on record was from a relative whohad previusly been known to the police. The idea of keeping on record DNA is exactly the same issue as keeping fingerprints on record, which I don't think many would really argue against. So in what way are/you/ giving up rights all of a sudden? As to government selling this information... I think you're being a little too paranoid.
There are like these rooms.. real rooms.. for people to chat in.. they're called chat rooms.. no need to call them real chat rooms.. as if there's any other type... fucking idiot...
Run up to the enemy.. jump on them.. and give them an electric shock? Or did you mean just wait around on the battlefield and shock those that choose to simply jump on the soldier? Either way.. how is this nasty when the alternative is people with guns shooting each other.
Yes, but all those terrorists that read/. will now start planting bombs in geocache marked boxes.

.. into a more easy to use application is Effusion which is an attempt to embed bittorrent within an irc application to make sharing/downloading a little easier on irc channels. However it is important to note that just because bittorrent is very convenient to share files, it is not designed to replace other p2p sharing apps with dodgy content. The bittorrent developers, and indeed also the Effusion developer (me) stress the LEGAL use of bittorrent technology. Note that it is trivial to obtain the source of files with bittorrent, so do not share anything you don't have the right to.
