    That is why the Christians don't see any point in conservation for the future because they pray for their evil god to destroy the world, so it does not matter if they leave nothing for the next generation.

    Wow. Massive generalization much?

    You're right, not all Christians are waiting around for the rapture. The ones that are don't give a damn about the future and they pray for more conflict in the Middle east. That's where the shit is supposed to go down.

    We'd be better off without that attitude.

    We'll always be paying for prisons and welfare, but it will cost less if we have an educated populace.

    And I agree about the e-books.

    Remember when some twat said that pepper spray is 'basically a food product'?

    It is. So is heroin. In either case it's still a bad idea to dump a lot of it down your throat.

    Of course someone had to pay for them.

    You think that providing an education for your citizenry is a burden on society?

    Do you think it would it be more efficient to spend the money on prisons and welfare?

    I never had to pay for them either. And yes, we had to give them back, they belonged to the school.

    Monsanto's GMO corps are resistant to Roundup. So the GMO crops are relevant, Roundup is one of the pesticides that harms bees.

    It's also true that Monsanto is ruthlessly aggressive towards farmers that don't toe the party line and use their seed.

    I corrected s/site/cite the other day and the fellow actually thanked me. Most people don't care if they sound illiterate. I suspect that 30% of the people who post on the internet confuse your and you're. That doesn't make it right but it does make them sound like toothless Okies.

    I'm a Linux developer.

    I have a windows box for one thing (not counting company email, Outlook totally sucks.)

    AutoCAD. Linux is woefully deficient in the CAD department. I have many tools that deal with cad data, quite a few I that have written myself, but nothing to compare with AutoCAD.

    As far as Linux on the desktop is concerned, I don't really care whether or not everyone uses it. However, I care that it is developed, and I care that software patents and commercial OS's are crippling to the advancement of computer science in general. Think how much more advanced we would be if the industry were more open about sharing innovations.
