Good info, thanks for that. I'm an atheist myself, but find religion fascinating. Also, I completely agree with you. Organized religion has brought much more pain and suffering to this world than it can ever take away.

I basically see it as this: Science is about understanding why the sky is blue. Religion is about saying "It's blue because God/Allah/Zeus/whatever wants it to be that way. Don't ask questions."

While your comment meets the current "fashion" for anti-Americanism and anti-Bushism, what you say is false.

They hate Americans, and all westerners because they've been told for generations that we are "infidels", non-believers, and it is therefore their duty by Allah to cleanse the Earth of these non-belivers. This is despite the Qur'an specifically recognizing Christians and Jews (People of the Book) and, believe it or not, even atheists. Mohammed himself also stated, "He who wrongs a Jew or a Christian will have myself as his accuser on the day of judgment." Alos, Qur'an 109:6(http://www.usc.edu/schools/college/crcc/engagement/resources/texts/muslim/quran/109.qmt.html) says "Unto you your religion, and unto me my religion."

Oh, and Bush/Cheney aren't in office anymore, the Country has moved on, maybe you should too.

The rape^H^H^H^Htesting hasn't been delayed at all. October is the date TWC has been saying it would start in Texas since they announced the whole thing. The San Antonio Express-News is just clueless, and sadly other media sites are picking up on their article and repeating the nonsense.

You and I must be reading different constitutions. I see nothing in the First Amendment about videos, music, games, DRM or anything of the sort.

The First Amendment reads:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

No, as RIAA is pronounced Arr Eye Ay Ay, not Ree-ah. "An" is appropriate in this case.

Macs? When I was in school we used Apple IIe machines.

Sterility is hereditary. If your parents didn't have any children neither will you.

From what I read on that Apple post, it sounds like Apple is encouraging you to install multiple AV software. And OS X already runs ClamAV doesn't it? Although I have yet to see such a thing get pushed out, I assume Clam can get updates via SoftwareUpdate?

I don't think they're suggesting that each machine run multiple AV systems, just that there are multiple AV systems in use among all machines, thus decreasing the chances that a virus can exploit a weakness in a particular scanner and remain undetected.

Also, OS X Server comes with ClamAV, but standard OS X does not. However, ClamXAV is available (completely free of course) for OS X and provides a simple way to install ClamAV and a GUI for management. I'm a bit surprised Apple doesn't list it on the recommendation page.
