Slashcode showed this very appropriate quotation at the bottom of the page:

It certainly does. The sea level is decreasing where there is still a significant land rise since the previous glaciation - i.e. the continental plate is bobbing up from where the ice pushed it down. Note especially in the bay between Sweden and Finland. Almost all measurements in mid-ocean show data consistent with TFA,

Come out of your cave and look around. We're already seeing the effects now. Spring is earlier year by year. Glaciers are retreating. The entire surface of the Greenland ice cap shows melt in summer. Plant and animal species are moving north and towards high country (because they can, not because they are afraid).

Exactly.

No, but we'd have to dig in and stock up like survivalists. We probably couldn't keep a few hundred million displaced people out anyway. Right now a trickle of Africans are trying to cross the Mediterranean into Europe. When Europe south of the Alps becomes uninhabitable, the North will be overrun. As will Canada and Siberia.

Of course you did. Just as you heard that global temperature is dropping, not rising. Doesn't mean it's true, though.

There are indeed waiting lines here in Norway, at least, not for emergency procedures, of course. But we're still trying to reach a goal of no more than 60 days of waiting for an operation. Reorganizing the public hospitals was supposed to help - it hasn't, so far. The press and TV are pushing, it looks like the bureaucrats may be losing - as they should. Also, lots of patients don't know that they can now freely choose which hospital to go to for operations and other procedures.

Microsoft's customers aren't regular home users. Their customers are OEMs and large corporate users (think five-digit numbers of desktop PCs). MS real customers are able and allowed to create custom Windows installs, in the corporate world those can be fine-tuned, secured and more reliable than the PC Joe Sixpack buys.

You are assuming that Microsoft actually cares about Windows' image. MS' customers are the OEMs and the corporate buyers, not the end users. Actually, I don't think MS could care less about what the end users think, as long as they can keep a death grip on the OEM market. They have suffered lots of PR setbacks without batting an eyelid.

And brace ...

Jeg og :-)

that there is no training. There IS training for FOSS products available, but you may have to actually look for it ... of course, the MS reps and shills deny it. Redpill Linpro here makes money giving FOSS courses in several cities. The ad supplements to the IT journals carry course schedules. And no, the courses are not free, similar price per day as other computer courses.

Last two chapters of Judges - these are probably the "worst". Of course, Ezekiel 23 would have the parent throwing a fit.

Exactement. And besides, a Moroccan is unlikely to use Canadian French. (I understand some of la langue métropolitaine, but spoken Canadian French just bounces off me ...)

And how does this relate to an incident at Heathrow Airport, London? You know, London in the UK?

You are sounding more and more like the wintrolls on c.o.l.a.
Wipe the foam off your mouth and go to the rear of the class. You may come forward when you have gained some understanding of what you are talking about.
