    I think this is an excuse to make a silly game and get lots of free publicity from tons of geeks doing what many of them have probably want to have done for years.

    If so the last noise he makes may be very similar to how I imagine someone would pronounce your screen name.

    If I had anyway of collecting on that I would take you up on that and I normally do not gamble.

    This will go without a hitch.

    Well, if anything is going to fail I bet it will be the balloon on the way up which would still leave him without injury.

    If anything goes wrong on the way down he will die before he hits the ground.

    With this jump if something goes wrong he will be dead long before he hits the ground.

    Probably not.

    I imagine if anything went wrong he would probably be torn limb from limb long before he reaches the ground.

    What in the fuck does that have to do with the point you were trying to make.

    You were making the argument that the company making these machines is making a profit and for some reason you think that is wrong. I was asking what your objection is to them making a profit, not whether or not they were needed in the first place.

    Why should a private company be asked to forsake all profits just because the government is mandating that their product be used? That is the question I would like to see you answer.

    Wow, and I figured someone would have replied with "Well then they just stick their ass to the window of the plane and kiss it goodbye."

    But yes, it is possible for a few people to get on a plane, go to the bathroom, pull bomb parts out of their ass, and then assemble them on the plane. There are simpler ways of going about it, but it is possible.

    So you are telling me if the orbit was changed to being much lower and closer to the atmosphere that it would not end up slowing down and re-entering?

    Aren't there stationary orbits? Couldn't you end up entering one by slowing down?

    Ok, I can understand that point, but lets just say for the sake of argument that it does actually work.

    Any objections then?

    As long as it is still under control when it is at end of life you just have it shoot the last bit of gas out the side opposite the earth to de-orbit it.

    What is your objection to them making money on a specialized product like that?

    Now, I can understand being upset if lets say the person majorly involved in getting them instituted turns out to own a very large part of that company.

    The politicians shouldn't profit from it, but the manufacturer should.

    Butt bombs tend to shape the charge in such a way that they usually end up blowing it out their ass, the rest of their body shields those not behind him.

    Boston airport sucks great big dirty donkey dicks with a side order of shit.

    If you have to go to any other terminal in the building you have to go though security again, and again. It can take well over half an hour to move from one part of the airport to another. It is fucking stupid and frustrating, the wife and I will do our best to avoid that airport from here on out considering the fun we had last time going though.

    Just because you are allowed do something, that doesn't mean you should do that something.

    Most of us agree that Jobs did enormous good for the world

    He did?

    Are you sure?

    Are we talking about the same person here?

    Making a enormous amounts of money does not equal did enormous good for the world, and that is what Jobs did, he made an enormous amount of money, for himself. Any good you attribute to him can be boiled down to him trying to make himself a lot of money.

    Why is this important for you?

    It's possible Jobs may have done something like that, but from what I am reading here that holds no importance to Woz, and even if it did, that was a long long time ago.

    The problem with bread and circuses is that it gets all the malcontents in one spot and they start talking to each other and they start looking at how to bring the whole thing down because the bread and circuses are keeping them down.
