The read-end collisions occur because 2 drivers decide to run a red light, but at the last minute one notices the red light camera and slams on their brakes to avoid a ticket, and the 2nd can't stop in time. 2 people set out to break the law, so, 2 people got in an accident.
If both drivers were driving safely, they would have slowed down at the yellow, and stopped because they clearly had no time to make it through.
Those same 2 drivers will eventually be involved in more serious accidents at another time, based on their unsafe driving that led to the rear-end collision.
Back when I was working at a computer shop, a customer brought in a PC they had bought elsewhere, and the hard drive failed. The drive was still under warranty, so, I took care of everything, returned the drive to Maxtor for a replacement.
After receiving a new hard drive, I placed it into the PC, and turned it on. I forgot the Windows install CD, and expecting a boot error, I was quite surprised to find the PC booting into Win2K. Found lots of sales documents, other business related documents for a Ford car lot.
Maxtor says 'Sorry, just reformat the drive, and it's got a full warranty as if it were new' I was informed that warranty returns are tested, and if they don't find them bad, they're sent back out, only this one missed the format step.
As far as postal service goes, there's laws about items being sent to you unsolicited. Could something like that be applied here?
Think CueCat. You gave it to me, I'll do with it as I please, and you can't say anything about it.
Sounds all neat and cool. Sounds like it would work.
But, the problem is, those that are smart enough, and educated enough to figure out how to find this, and use it correctly, wouldn't be getting their accounts hacked by spambots to begin with.
Gmail has had this for a couple years at least BTW.
I recently moved, and had a few weeks of missed TV watching. I missed 3 weeks of all my shows, starting with all the season premieres.
Within 24 hours, I got every missed episode, of every show downloaded. Plus several high quality DVD rips of movies not yet available on retail DVD.
I don't use hosting services such as RapidShare. I use bittorrent.
Dare accepted, and completed. Your move.
Not playing covers songs isn't enough for them.
ASCAP in effect shut down a local venue because they had no way to pay the exceptionally high fees they wanted in order to allow live music to be played.
They catered to local, younger musicians playing ORIGINAL music. At first, they let them go because they were playing original music. Then, they came back and said they had to pay the fees.
Why? because someone warming up, tuning up, or whatever may play a few notes that someone else wrote.
This place was for a younger audience, so no alcohol sales. Cover charges were just to keep the place open. They had to close down.
When I worked for a computer repair shop many years ago, we had a customer bring in a PC with a dead hard drive. It was a Maxtor, and we didn't sell that brand in store, so all we could do was handle the online RMA in their name.
After getting a 'new' sealed replacement drive, I plugged it into the machine and booted it. I forgot to put in the Windows boot CD to run the install. Upon looking back at the screen, the PC was booting into Win2K!! Letting it continue, and checking around, I found that the harddrive belonged to a Ford dealership. It had all sorts of sales and customer information in it.
I called Maxtor and explained the situation, more upset about receiving a used drive as a replacement. They informed me that it's standard practice to issue refurb drives for warranty replacement. And, it's common to receive 'failed' drives as warranty returns that have nothing wrong with them. They just wipe them, and send them back out as refurb. I got one of those drives. She told me there was nothing they would do, unless I wanted to do another RMA, and pay shipping to return the drive.
