Comment Re:Wow (Score 1) 520

AT&T is always screwing me me also. I have 4 phones and I have the parental controls on 3 of these phones that is suppose to block all internet access and any additional charges. I pay $5 for each phone to have this service. But each month I noticed a couple cents being charged for download fees on these 3 phones. The only reason I pay for the dam parental control is because they tell me I cannot block internet access without also blocking picture messages. I pay for unlimited messing with includes picture messages. This is bullshit, they should be able to block internet without blocking picture messages. When I talk to them about this, they just try to sell me unlimited internet access for each of my phone...I don't want internet access, i want it turned off.

Comment No more peeling the rind to add flavor while cooki (Score 1) 475

I don't think the label ever bothered me, I knew to peel it off. Now if you start burning the outside layer of citrus It will be a pain to peel the rind for use in cooking. Peeling a label off does not ruin the rind, but I would not want lazer burned rind used for flavoring any of my desserts.

Comment Require devices to have ability to be blocked (Score 1) 432

I agree with the solution to remove the driver, the car should drive itself. In the meantime the FCC should require all communication devices have a method to block usage within a small radius with the exception of 911 calls. Then cars (front seat only), schools (Kids spend more time texting during class than they do paying attention), federal buildings, and other locations can essentially disable the ability to use any communication device.

Comment Re:Why not have voting machines that print ballots (Score 1) 436

Off-Topic a bit, but I think all positions should allow for a vote of no-confidence for any of the runners. That way people don't have to vote for "the best of 2 evils".

If the tally of no-confidence votes is greater than the tally for any individual:
- A new election should be held within 3 months
- Candidates from the original election are disqualified from subsequent no-confidence elections.
- In the meantime, depending on the position, another qualified person will hold the acting title. Congress will determine who the acting positions are on the federal level, and each State and County will need to set up rules for determining this.
