I proved it by pointing at the 10 yard fresh skid mark that started at the lane marker and moved toward the middle of my lane. Driver in front told the officer they thought they saw something in the road just as they changed lanes (right in front of me). Officer cited them for something like erratic driving (I don't really remember). It does happen, although probably not too often. Which is why the conventional wisdom says if you do the rear ending you're at fault.

Sadly, I was thinking the same thing... might be time to get started doing that before I also have 9000 cables to identify and remove... :P

What about hospitals? Power companies? Other vital services? We are seeing a growth in networks that can be life and death connected to the Internet. They could become collateral damage.

True, but good decisions in what "appears" to be a no-win scenario can be the cause of getting out of a 1 in a million chance of survival scenario. It also gives insight into the captain's world view. Is the captain a "take 'em all down with me" kind of person or a "Run away!" kind of captain, or some other kind? It allows those higher in the chain of command to have at least an idea of what kind of assignments to give in the future. I think it also allows the test taker to look more deeply into themselves to see what kind of person they really are when the chips are down. Assuming, of course, the student takes the test seriously enough.

Totally forgot about this Julian. Tough call between this one and Bashir!

Absolutely! How could that one be missed?

Absolutely this. At the end of a meeting I will summarize verbally what I believe the other person wants from me and then ask them to put it in an e-mail with the understanding I don't move forward until I have the e-mail. If I don't get one right away I will be pro-active and send them one with what we agreed on and ask them to confirm the points, again mentioning no work starts until I get an acknowledgement e-mail. I have found this not only keeps the other party accountable for what they ask for but it also keeps me on top of what I need to be doing (the e-mail usually becomes a task list item in Outlook).

Ah, gotcha! Yeah, folks tend to assume that if you support Obama you don't support Bush and vice versa. In truth, more and more folks are realizing that both have played a pretty big role in eliminating civil liberties.

I'm thinking a ~Whoosh~ is in order... ;)

Again, that's where competition comes in. I'll plug my agency's online store http://www.cincysight.com./ Prices equal to or better than Office Depot and Staples with no shipping charges, packages typically arrive within 2-3 business days of the order (admittedly not same day convenience), and returns are very easy (and during business hours you can call to talk to a person about your order). Now, I'm not saying I'm in favor or against the merger. I don't really care either way. But there really is more competition out there than folks think. It's just hard to stand out in the mass of online retailers.

Valid point. The line between freedom of expression and hate/porn/libel/threat/terrorism does tend to keep getting shifted around in the courts. So I guess that does put the final decision more in SCOTUS than congress at the end of the day (unless congress decides to make a law declaring everything legal).

If you are in the U.S. then that would be Congress...

AOL may have been awful but the side effect of having so many households suddenly all start driving up demand for Internet content and features certainly didn't hurt the early growth of the Internet as we know it.
