    The use of "evidences thereof" is a widely used phrase, see here:

    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&biw=&bih=&q=%22evidences+thereof%22

    Even if it is, you did not use that phrase. And legalese is a separate language.

    Don't try to "school me" on English, fool... it's the main language I have been using for 43 yrs. now (along w/ 3 others I speak & write fluently also).

    Well, you could have done without also; it is quite redundant because of along with. However, what fascinates me the most is the fact that you took the time to type up the HTML code for an ampersand even though it is easier to simply type and.
    While I may believe you are fluent in a number of languages (after all, logorrhea makes you fluent in whatever you want), this still fails to address the matter of style. Of which you have none. You boast your 43 years, yet you write as if you were 30 years younger.
    Now, I wouldn’t have gone into all this if you hadn’t started stalking me. But now it’s party time. Enjoy stalking me further.

    How do you assault someone in self-defense? You can defend yourself from assault, in which case the person assaulting you may suffer physical harm. It can be determined that the self-defense response was not appropriate (e.g. shooting someone who threw a wadded up piece of paper at you.) but someone cannot take defensive action until someone has taken offensive action or made it appear apparent that they were about to take offensive action.

    Two words: preemptive strike.

    Well, I’ve never studied Japanese, but from what little I know, katakana is used, among other things, for foreign words. Then again, I seem to recall it used to be a women’s script... if that is so, and knowing that it is not uncommon for the Japanese to address openly gay men as -chan, that would have to be the most subtle declaration of homosexuality I’ve heard of.

    Well, at least if your name is Sheldon Cooper. Most other people would not find it as funny.

    Other than my feeble attempt of humor, this has already been answered, but it does not hurt to repeat it: security updates could only be downloaded from trusted seeders, now known as mirror sites. While it would not provide users with full advantages of BitTorrent, it would dramatically reduce the hassle of choosing mirrors. The one closest to you doesn’t work or is inexplicably slow? Choose another one, repeat until you get satisfactory results. With BitTorrent, you eliminate that problem.

    However, it is probably not enough of an improvement over the current system to warrant all the work that would have to go into replacing it.
