It would be like making someone smell something and then NOT hitting them in the head with the pipe, but later, they think they remember being hit with the pipe even though they really weren't.

flamebait? really?

no hard feelings. i was a bit confused too. glad we're all facing the same direction now.

Right... but all of that is contingent upon the first sentence:

The point is that the normal story is not the true story, and that once you hear the full story, it

Make sense?

is there a particular reason this was a reply to my comment?

The way you normally hear this story is all about the labels. Some lady didn't know that coffee is hot, and she sued McDonald's for not putting a little "caution: hot!" label on it. Now they do, and that solves that. But the fact that it was really about the coffee being too hot, and the solution involved not just a label, but an actual reduction in temperature makes this seem a lot more reasonable.

Those little warning labels on coffee cups still seem absurd to me though.

maybe people will stop trying to get me to join their iPhone app team on the promise of payment "when it gets big."

Yay! This is our chance to use up all the fossil fuels real quick-like and then by the time the cold spell is over we'll all be using nuclear and solar panels.

It's not actually flightless, though it does spend most of its time on the ground.

Um, it's not funny, it should be insightful. Adding this line should fix the problem.

My high school required everyone to type at least 45 WPM in order to graduate. I did this very well... using the hunt and peck method!!

I spent the entire summer before college agonizingly unlearning the wrong muscle memory and learning correct touch-typing. One of the hardest and most stressful things I've ever done. After that my WPM was at like 35, but with time that has grown to the 80WPM I work at now.

Needless to say, the requirement shouldn't be a set WPM, but the ability to touch type without looking a certain range of characters (say upper and lowercase alpha plus the common punctuation). Once this foundation is set, speed will increase proportionally to the amount that the person uses a computer.

Well I have a tongue and I disagree.

"Except" and "accept" are both homophonic (same sound) and heterographic (different spelling).

you already can disable it in about:config.
