Excuse me good sir but I found this "y" at the bottom of the page. I believe it is yours?

If you send me a document saved in MS Word format. How can I read it without purchasing MS Word? This was the case once, almost everyone used MS Word for documents, no open or semi open formats. To read these you had to have MS Word, there was no other program to read them. MS Word became the de facto standard by sabotaging its competitors that ran on Windows and DOS like Word Perfect.

Microsoft supplied the leading word processor "Word Perfect" with faulty Windows APIs.

HA HA HA

Bill Gates sure pulled the wool over your eyes. He is as evil or more evil than Steve Jobs. At least with Steve Jobs you don't have to use Apple. Bill Gate forced everyone to use his crap closed technology.

For example
Why didn't Open Source Word Processors in the early days support Microsoft Word Documents? Was is
A) They wrote bad code.
or
B) Microsoft kept the format secret so no-one could compete.

And it says in your sig "Support the EFF and Creative Commons. The war is coming, and they're supporting you..." do you have amnesia or something?

Australia has not had any major increase in crime committed with firearms.

The public's perception is that violence is increasing, but trends in violent crime reported to police since the early 1990s reveal a mixed story. Homicide has decreased by nine percent since 1990 and armed robbery by one-third since 2001, but recorded assaults and sexual assaults have both increased steadily in the past 10 years by over 40 percent and 20 percent respectively. The rate of aggravated assault appears to have contributed to the marked rise in recorded assault, and for both assault and sexual assault the rate of increase was greater for children aged under 15 years, with increases almost double that of the older age group. Neither population changes among young adult males nor rates of offending seem to explain the trends in recorded violent crime, and indicators of change in reporting to police provide only a partial explanation. Based on self-reported victimisation and reporting to police, it would seem increased reporting of assault is somewhat responsible for the rise in recorded assault rates against adult victims. However, victimisation survey data suggest there has been little change in rates of sexual assault, although reporting to police by women seems to have increased. Victimisation survey data also do not illuminate the most significant recorded increase in violent victimisation, against children, as they are collected less frequently and only apply to those aged at least over 15 years. The paper speculates that the rise could be due to better public understanding of child protection issues and increased reporting due to public awareness of what constitutes physical and sexual assault - especially within the family - but this requires further investigation to examine how many recorded violent crimes against children relate to current and/or past events and of the relationship to the offender.

Hey I live in Australia and I don't know what you are talking about. Violent crime did not increase when we had strengthened gun laws. Perhaps you are quoting gun loons?

What is the difference between "literal" and "Literal" different books in the bible contain literal things that happened and poetry. I doubt the poetry is literal. The second creation account (7 days one) does not specify the length of the day. You could infer that it was the same as our day but then you need to explain why days can exist before the sun existed. You might reply and say that days acted retroactively in that case. More importantly is the fact that the 7 day period translates into the Hebrew week with the last day being the day of rest (Sabbath). So it may not be the length of time of each day but rather the sequence of days, things end in a rest period. Note however that the Jews celebrated only the Sabbath day and not the other days. If the second creation account is one of our weeks and the end represents the Sabbath day then why do we have week after week but the creation account only occurs once?

I would say there is a difference between saying these events literally happened and these events literally happened in 7 of our days.
