To ensure a statistically relevant study with a high level of confidence (95% or better) and a small margin of error (5% or less), 1000 women and 600 men were surveyed in partnership with the research firm Applied Marketing Science, in accordance with the following:
Respondents were geographically and academically diverse, from all available regions and colleges across the United States.
I guess diversity means different things to different people. Although, I should have gotten the hint from the first page:

STOP LETTING PEOPLE RETIRE AT 55 WITH FULL BENEFITS! It's not a sustainable economic model you arrogant, self-absorbed ass!!!!
I don't see why this is such a problem. You just need to modify the definitions of 'full', 'benefits' (and while you're at it, 'retire') and you should be fine.
So, I am sure that I won't have to pay $100000 in case of a fire, $20000 to have the police find the guy who beat me up (and another $20000 to have the court send him to jail) and $1M to repair a road.
Of course you wouldn't, you're being absurd -- I know a guy who'll do it for $15000, tops.
Answer: Have you seen the documentary "Who killed the electric car?" starring the EV1? Well, we are setting up the Volt to star in the sequel.
Answer: When we asked for the budget to develop the Volt, top-level decision makers took it out of the ICE budget. Freely and enthusiastically offered internal feedback -- incidentally, from the same group, whose market we would be directly competing with -- bolstered our own projections that requesting additional budget from them for advertising would be counterproductive.
To most dev firms I'm going to look like a bit of a dinosaur, 40 odd years old, knows little of OO coding OR modern languages and aproaches to projects. I can write other languages and, with a bit of practice I'll pick them up pretty quickly.
A little tongue-in-cheek, but once you know Perl, you can argue that learning any other language with a fully-BNF-described grammar is much simpler.
If you're not very affluent in networking, the above will sound VERY confusing, but trust me it can be done.
I think you mean 'fluent', as in you understand networking well. Then again, you could mean that this is expensive, in which case, 'affluent' would be correct. Although, the original problem refers to programming pumps, so it could be 'effluent'.
That's a bit extreme, don't you think? Why not have the Atlanta P.D. place a pro-Baton-Bob statement on their Facebook page and other social media accounts, prominently stating how he's a valued citizen and a community treasure? That would at least be more proportionate, even it's not wholly accurate.

Be only as loyal to the company as they are loyal to you.
If you're looking for a place to plant your loyalties, plant them with people, not with companies.
It's like going to buy a new car and the dealer asking you what you paid for your last one.
Typically, I thought they pay attention to what you drive onto the lot.

Certain other physiological limitations might end up overriding those concerns.

It may take time for the wheels of justice to move in your favor,
Yes, but is that meatspace time, Internet time, or Web 2.0 time? Or maybe even crowdsourced time?

Ok, maybe repurposed is a better way of saying it.

Glad I could clarify that.
So perhaps we should turn all the schools into shopping malls with rave venues, and serve lots of alcopops?
Schools? Thank you -- I have a new recommendation for our division executive admin to replace the occasional Friday beer bust.

Cherry MX Red - pure gaming - key is light (a lot less force to push down) and must be pressed down all the way (to benefit double-tapping)
I'm typing this using a Das Keyboard with Cherry MX Red switches, and the strokes register after only about two mm .
Can someone provide a car analogy?
