Sure, that's what the camera in the vending room is for.
I wouldn't be surprised if some Trekkies don't worship the pointy-eared one too.
So, I guess I can't name the next gas giant "Obama"?
I might not track where my cash goes, but it's easier to track how much I'm spending. If I yank out $100 on Saturday, and I'm broke on Friday, I know without calculating that I've spent $100 that week. If I charge that amount, I actually have to look at my records to see how much I've spent.
At the cafeteria at work, they have a $3 minimum for card purchases. Not much of a problem, since most of their crap is well over $3 anyway, but they do have that min.
She should at least sue Al Gore, since he invented the damn thing!

Productivity is way up since the 1950s. If you were to live according to a 1950's lifestyle including miles driven, size of home, vacation travel, amount of times going out to eat, drop internet, CATV, cell phones etc, you could save an enormous amount of money. Invest it in some index funds or take a dividend growth approproach and you would be pretty rich.
Been there, and griped about it just before I saw your post. My guess is that "Mr Nice" was a bleeping idiot who didn't see the car in the other lane. I'm just glad I held back until I could see it.
One time, I was trying to make a left turn into oncoming traffic. The first car stopped and waved me on. The problem is, there were two lanes, and if I had gone in front of "Mr Nice", I would have gotten clobbered by the car in the other lane that didn't stop!
I trust the internet enough to pay my bills online. I also check my accounts online to make sure nobody has fsked with them.

Random garbage or valid perl?
Yes.
Presumably so they can say, without totally lying out their asses, that the message came from his mouth.
Back when I was on Facebook, it seemed like every change they made was designed to make me want to use its product less. So much so that I eventually asked them to delete my account.
I didn't think that was "designed". I thought it was just their ineptness.
Or, if she did document the order, it got lost in another HD crash.
Old programmers never die, they just hit account block limit.
