I, like most Americans, don't have the time or interest to watch most movies more than once. That's why Blockbuster Video exists. Therefore, I couldn't care less about DRM. However, if they start fighting this battle and it ends up costing us money, to stop a (relatively) few pirates, then they will loose a lot of money. After all, video sales did fine even though it was very easy to defeat the copy protection.
Once the word RADIATION is heard, most people cringe. They lump all EM radiation into the same category as UV, X and Gamma rays, or even confuse it with particle radiation. Anyway, I seriously doubt that this desk will emit anything higher than a few millivolts at a couple hundred Hertz.
Not in NC. We are only allowed to vote Republican or Democrat. Of course, NC also bars Atheists from holding public office, so why would I expect fair elections?
Almost as much as fraud, is that you can hit one button and vote a straight party ticket (at least here in NC.) What ever happened to knowing were a candidate stands on the issues? Doesn't the constitution state that votes will be cast for the CANDIDATE of your choosing, not the party? Also, here in NC write-ins aren't allowed in partisan races. You have to choose Rep or Dem or nothing at all. The only non-partisan race that I saw was for "Soil and Water Conservation District Manager".
We can bitch about voter fraud all we want, but until you are allowed to vote for anyone you want, it's not a fair election.

Don't let my boss see this.

Were will the media get the preliminary studies that they publish as fact?

Maryland was a blue state in the '04 elections.
The former legislator may have lost the election due to a glitch found in the code.
Only if removing Maryland's votes would have resulted in his defeat. Remember, Maryland was a blue state.
