  1. Re:Indian Point == Ticking Timb Bomb on Transformer Explosion Closes Nuclear Plant Unit North of NYC · · Score: 5, Insightful

    no, indian point is in rockland county NY in southern NY. but its not a ticking time bomb, AC has no idea what hes talking about. this is a normal function of the electrical system. it worked as intended, there is no scare here.

    I live in the imediate blast zone of indian point.You are exactly right. no one around here is freaking out. we are all sitting around saying how the system worked as it was supposed to. going on with out days.

    This is a non story simple as that. now lets wait for the anti nuke people to roll in and tell us how wind and solar will save us all

  3. Re:I smell money grab on Texas Regulators Crack Down on App-Driven Hauling Service · · Score: 1

    so why cant we allow individuals to take the risk themselves? Why cant the driver put up a disclaimer "ship at your own risk"

    then let people decide if they want to use the regulated market, or the cheaper option.

    Depending on what I am shipping, I may not care if an accident happens and go with the cheaper route. on the other hand, if its valuable, ill gladly fork over the extra.

    I guess im simply trying to say the government doesnt, and shouldnt be our babysitters and gate keepers

    but I'm not sure a school system that works in downtown San Francisco will have the same needs as one in, say, downtown Detroit. I

    Which is exactly why we need to remove the dept of fed from the education system and let the local schools decide whats best for them

    I would have to agree based on this line

    Microsoft analyzes product key activation data voluntarily provided by users when they activate Microsoft software

    Now, if its something that was done by a pro pirate, they would not have "voluntarily" handed over that info and would have used a tool to block it.
