Whoo-hoo-hoo, look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there's usually only one thing you can do...go through his clothes and look for loose change.
It's all about levels of trust. If you want to query Google (or Yahoo) but want some form of anonymizer between the search engine and yourself, you might want to check out Scroogle (http://www.scroogle.org).
So do I trust Scroogle's claim that they delete all search criteria within 48 hours? They haven't let me down yet.

Perhaps that's what I don't agree with - most of us don't struggle to the top. We go so far, then say "enough". Then there are those who focus on their goal to the exclusion of all else. That drive can lead to a cure for cancer, or the impovrishment of untold numbers of people.

How about this one? Uncle Ben: "With great power comes great responsibility." He wanted the glitz without the responsibility. Thanks for playing, better luck next time.

Regulation was to blame?
So the regulators set up the maze so the Enron mice would be forced to choose profit and the associated side-effects (inconvenience/damage/possible loss of life)?

That means if a gamer hasn't changed hardware in a year they haven't...
Ewww.

Wow, that mySQL REALLY doesn't know how to treat its data. The company didn't need a consultant, it needed a therapist!

Q: "Mr Shatner, is this the end of the Star Trek series we fans know and love, or the beginning of something bigger and better for the series?"
A: "Yes. It. Is."

They fixed user replaceability a long time ago...when one Ipod user gets tired of their player, they give it to a new user.
Ba da, bing.
