Imagine a Judge whose dictionary has the same definition of 'obvious' as the rest of us.

Satan is skating to work this morning.

So am I.

They can send me as many unsolicited messages as they like if I get paid 50c for every one.

That's only fair, I think.

Enough numbers there to make your eyes bleed. Tomi is a pretty reputable source apparently. I've certainly yet to see any evidence to the contrary.

How are Apple going to sell 500 million iPhones in the next year?

Surely 50 million is a far more likely number.

Samsung is number 1 by a very large margin above number 2.

Surely.

Historically entrenched Mysticism has reacted poorly to the thoughts of Scientific minds.

Do you think there might be better ways to approach this communication that would improve the rate of Scientific progress and do you think that this interaction might be amenable to Scientific study?

Do you also feel that this debate that rages between those that would manipulate mysticism to gain power over others and Science can ever be won or is it a battle that must be fought for every succeeding generation?

And? So? What?

If the total number of minds receiving the knowledge increases what's the problem?

This whole point is facetious and I'm sure you cannot be unaware of it.

Since Andrew Carnegie invested a spectacular amount of wealth in creating them a great many of us have access to a library.

This however does not equate to all the education you could ever want or need.

Unless all the education you desire is large print Mills and Boon romances.

As to the nonsense about warlords, how does that negate the point that the vast majority does not have access to free, lifelong education opportunities?

I might go so far as to say that many of these other travails might easily be directly attributed to such a lack of educational opportunity.

So, is not now and never has been free?

It is my recollection that OU courses were always way way more than I could afford to invest in re-training. Until the SNP government in Scotland began offering full subsidy to students with household incomes less than approx. £18000 in their first term in government.

Even then it is a very limited option compared to our societies need for the labour force to learn how to do something useful instead of something that has been outmoded by the inexorable march of progress.

So you agree that massive numbers of people are interested in education?

As opposed to getting drunk and wildly copulating as often as they possibly can.

I was under the impression that all OU courses cost money and there is no government funding whatsoever except in Scotland.

I think if nothing else the popularity of MOOC's demonstrates just how desperate people are for education.

The vast majority of humanity has no access to the training they want. Either it just isn't available or it is beyond their means.

Perhaps it is time we gave everyone that wants it free access to whatever education they desire throughout their entire lives.

It is the lack of skill-agility within the workforce that is really putting the brakes on economic growth and technological progress.

This would appear to have bugger all to do with Samsung.

All devices with 'location based services' required regulatory permission. It appears that Blackberries and Google Maps were also banned at the time.

I've seen this claim before.

" Nevermind that the iPhone was banned for two years in Korea."

Holy shit, really?
