Tell him if you can't listen to music while you program then you will just publish his porn browsing habits to the shareholders. Or. That you will tell his secretary's Marine husband that yo have been banging her while he has been stationed over seas.

Comment Re:Space trash collection satellite (Score 1) 76

And what are the rules of salvage in space anyway? Finders keepers. The spacebot would have to change altitude and direction a lot. Somehow I think fuel would become a big issue. If it collected it would also gain more mass and require more fuel to change direction and altitude. Collecting does not seem to be the answer because of mass. It would have to be a pretty inteligent bot if it were to release water vapor clouds as well. You might inadvertently take down something important that can not correct it's own altitude quick enough. I think the whole idea is a nightmare in logistics and devise, it could take a really long time to devise a workable solution/

Comment Letter to Tim Westergren (Score 1) 244

Dear Tim Westergren and Pandora Staff, I have been listening to Pandora for well almost 2 years now. I have introduced all my friends to it, and many use it. Sometimes I have had to defend your product as the superior way to listen to music and introduce new artists and music into your life. I have generally been very happy with Pandora and the experience of being a 10 hour a day listener of Pandora at my office. Last night however I experienced something that I will say was an absolute shame. When I arrived at home from work my wife was listening to her Pandora âquick mixâ(TM), I could tell because of the diversity of the station she was listening too, when an advertisement played over the digital air ways. I asked out loud. âoeIs that an advertisement on Pandora?â to which my wife responded, âoePandora has been playing those for a while now.â I feel robbed! I have several times checked out the visual advertisements on your pages, I listen to Pandora in Google Chrome just so I can see and click on the advertisements that are otherwise blocked in my Firefox browser. I have bought music through / because of Pandora. Right now I am seriously re-thinking that. You have to have competitors out there who donâ(TM)t play advertisements. Some of my friends have mentioned them before, maybe it is time I do some new research on them. From what I understand you only have chosen to homogenize a certain set of users, I donâ(TM)t know why you have not chosen to attack me with audio pollution in between songs. But when you do I will stop listening to Pandora Radio. Right now introducing anyone else to Pandora is on hold in my book. Frankly if my wife keeps getting advertisements I am going to try to convince her to stop listening as well. I need to go apologize to many of my friends who I told them Pandora was the listeners dream. -Kurtis Kiesel Pandora User since 02/09/07 http://www.pandora.com/people/kieselk
