So? That big shiny thing isn't going to hit us either.
But we don't live in cosmic terms; we live in human terms, and 425,000 miles is really far away!
Showing lots of cleavage distracts guys, frequently attracting them like flies to honey to chat the woman up and hit on her, thereby distracting her from the concentration needed to program.
From what I can see, you'd think WND was too liberal.
It's been a *long* time since I read WND, and even then didn't read it that much. All I really remember was lots of ads for books about Israel. From your comment, though, it seems that WND is far right.

It seems like *every* Empowered Young Woman on You Tube feels this deep and overpowering urge to show as much of her tits as possible.
Someone doesn't know very much about child development. Specifically, those cooties that girls see crawling all over boys weren't invented by the patriarchy to keep women down.
What's difficult is getting off your ass and doing something about it.
True enough. But what you *don't* do is idiocy like this.
As with any argument against someone's firm intent, you need a lever to convince them to do otherwise. (Another post mentioned how we'll get it only when FR s/w catches a Congressman out with a woman-not-his-wife.)
They had the good sense to diffuse
Yet they went in with the hare brained notion that it might actually work. That's the mentally retarded part.
The goal was "to develop a voluntary, enforceable code of conduct
Because they work for/with the government, those privacy advocates are -- by definition -- adults. Yet they are so fucking naive as to make me wonder whether or not they are mentally retarded.

It might not be perfect, but it's better than the current situation.
Any circuit design must contain at least one part which is obsolete, two parts which are unobtainable, and three parts which are still under development.
