No, the answer that human hands are translucent is not valid. Transparency and translucency imply the ability to somewhat discern what is behind the object.
The fact you let words offend you simply reinforces my belief of your Republican status.
"Federal gov't has absolutely nothing to do with local problems and services, such as a fire department for example."
This crossed state lines - this is interstate commerce between Kentucky and Tennessee, CLEARLY IN FEDERAL JURISDICTION.
"Also clearly in this case the property taxes did not include a fire department because the place is remote and very few people live there, so they can't afford to have one, so they outsource services from a neighboring county, who provide the services if the annual $75/year fee is paid, which is insurance, not a cost of a call."
No, they don't have one because they've consistently voted against a tax for it for 20 years. Typical Republican, not bothering to obtain the facts before tossing out hypotheticals.
"I am actually against federal gov't doing anything and everything except justice system and minimum military and I find it unfortunate that there is no clear separation of Congress and economy."
Jeeze, because everything would just so happen to be intrinsically linked so as to maintain interoperability between states.
Yep, typical Republican, can't understand how our system works.
The real failure is your inability to figure out that the Government is responsible for this entire fucking mess. Instead of giving out money to states and local municipalities that need it to fund BASIC CIVIL FUCKING SERVICES (another thing you apparently fail to understand,) they use it to line their own pockets.
The real tragedy is you'll sit on your ass and do nothing, in the meantime I spend a lot of time and energy actually doing some good by trying to make things better.
"If the voters in that district agreed with you, they would have approved the tax."
Actually, in this case, since it lies upon the government (by constitution) to provide these services by proxy of "Promote the common defense and general welfare" the voters have no say in the matter, as it lies upon Congress to levy taxes, and that power is specifically granted to Congress. The problem is Congress has failed to do their jobs, and as such, that tax money that would pay for essential civil services has gone into a war machine or their personal pocketbooks.
"They have no legal responsibility to protect anyone outside of their jurisdiction."
Actually, that is bullshit, and in several states you'd go to jail for failing to render aid as you witness an emergency.
And as a citizen in a government position, it's their civic duty to render aid to anyone in need.
The firefighters should be sued, and fired. That is it. If you can't do your job as required, you need to be fired. Fire Fighters are a civic service, not a fucking revenue service.
You must be a Republican to want people to pay for a service the government is contractually and constitutionally bound to provide. Go look up the phrase "Provide for the common defense" (of which firefighters are an essential defensive team for a city) and 'general welfare' (which includes emotional health,) and try taking this out of context so idiotically again.
"Let me say it again, the HOMEOWNER CHOSE TO LET HIS HOUSE BURN when HE FAILED TO SUBSCRIBE."
Sorry, there's this little thing that puts the welfare of the citizenry SQUARELY upon the government's shoulders, and as such, they are to provide for the COMMON WELFARE of everybody. A *CIVIL SERVICE* such as fire-safety crews should be MANDATORY in every city and paid for by tax money.
That this isn't happening is grounds for RICO lawsuits. "Pay up or no service that we are legally and constitutionally bound to give you."
Yea, bull fucking shit.
South Fulton should have the living fuck sued out of them, as well as every other district that practices this shit. This is criminally negligent.
Problem is my old website had the capability to do ALL of this before it went under. Our newer reincarnation does not have this built in, but I still have the full database from my old website from 5 years ago. Would this count as prior art against the patent?
Then you should send this dipshit an e-mail back saying 'Your efforts are futile and absurd, plus you're just costing me more traffic by adding to the garbage already being sent out by the spambots. Cease and desist you incompetent fuckwit.'
Slashdot Mirror
"I'll repeat again, there was ABSOLUTELY ZERO CHALLENGE."
Then you're ignorant of the challenge modes other people came up with in the game.
For example, winning without using materia, or winning while only using your base default starting equipment for every character.
Your lack of imagination is what made the game into a non-challenge.
"Turns out you don't have enough space on a standard PS3 DVD"
That's why they put it on a Blu-Ray disc, duh.
"has decided to completely ignore all the advances to the MMO genre made in the last several years."
What advances? All you get from an MMORPG is incremental updates and a wallet-sucking monthly fee, and non-stop grinding with very little else to do.
Except I just use SkypeOut and SkypeIn on the PSP as my phone.
Had the format war not happened I'd most certainly have worse business, as due to that the price of 420nm and 460nm diodes dropped like a rock.
Hey I try to submit good stuff. Sadly, it seems slashdot isn't quite what it was almost a decade ago.
Yes, because that ad-hoc network is pretty damned easy to hijack.
Physical security or GTFO.
At least he didn't get the TAG Heuer with the platinum ingot for the timing mechanism.
No, the answer that human hands are translucent is not valid. Transparency and translucency imply the ability to somewhat discern what is behind the object.
The human hand does not allow that.
COOKING pizza is easy.
Now let me see you flip and toss and stretch that dough.
Never played a racing game, I see. :)

What a worthless piece of scum you are.
You're a fuckwit without any clue about ESSENTIAL CIVIL SERVICES.
I hope you burn in a fire and die, you poor excuse for an American.
"His county HAS NO FIRE DEPT."
WRONG
County is greater level than city, and as such, they could have easily ordered the city FD to respond.
It seems everyone does not know the layers of government. This is pretty sad, no wonder half of this site is arguing in favor of the FD.
"From what I've read, this is a voluntary fee because they do not live within the city limits."
County > city. Taxes should have been paying for this all along.
Did you fail your basic civics lessons?
"This person lived outside of the city fire jurisdiction."
No such fucking thing. Multi-alarm fires are common and by law if the request for help from other departments is made THEY MUST ANSWER BY LAW.
It's quite apparent none of you people have done any sort of volunteer firefighting or professional firefighting.
This is pure criminal negligence upon the part of South Fulton.

"A line has to be drawn somewhere, and we draw it around human life."
BZZZT WRONG!
Try being a firefighter, even a volunteer one (as I was for Memphis, TN and Olive Branch, MS.)
Our job is to stop that fire and prevent loss of ANY LIFE.
I have saved many an animal from a fire.
Don't speak about that which you obviously do not know.
