If there is one genuine gripe, it is that Windows 7 is what Vista should have been.
That was my idea

You must still be in college. Your reason and sense isn't welcome out here.
Actualy, I think the small town local newspaper has a decent chance of attracting pay subscriptions. There are hundereds of sites I can go to if I want to read about President Obamas state of the union address, but there aren't many places I can go to to find coverage of the Mayoral race in Annapolis Md. If I want to know the scores in the NFL, thats easy, but what happened in local High School football?
these people were just trolling for years now. Good to finally see some confirmation of my hypothesis.
If I put a CFL into my recycling bin, it is just as likely to end up crushed in the street as it is to end up properly disposed up. The sort of people employed to pick my trash up are not exactly careful. You aren't likely to get the average person to do much more than to put it in the correct bin.
Disposed of properly is a bit optimistic.
mod parent up. I never have points when I want them
No silly, but if you catch it on the bounce, it's like it never happened
A year ago I'd have agreed with you, but until you can explain a $70/bbl -> $140/bbl -> $40/bbl swing without using the term "somebody fucking with it," I'll respectfully disagree.
My 52in LCD uses less electricity than the 27in tube it replaced. Point your finger in the correct direction please.
1. Because tickets are sent to the wrong people?
2. Because tickets are assessed to the owner (not the driver) of the car?
3. Because you have no accuser to confront in court?
These three are irrelevant, because a picture of the driver is included with the ticket in the mail. If you don't look like the picture, then it's pretty easy to contest it.
In MD at least, the ticket does go to the car owner, and not the driver. The red light camera ticket I saw had only a picture of the rear of the car, and you could in no way identify the driver.
4. Because rear-end collisions increase at intersections with red-light cameras?

IMHO the purpose of math in public schools is to make sure that upon release into the real world, students can do things like balance their checkbook, calculate a tip or a discount without a calculator, make change, and understand the concept of compounding interest. Sadly, it appears that they are failing miserably at that simple task.
I don't condone either behavior, but your friend is just asking to become a hood ornament.
We do in fact need higher taxes in order to pay off the monstrous debt we're accumulating.
Oh my god! you're right. I deserve a raise because I have a huge mortgage I could never afford, 3 car payments, and $60k in credit card debt.

So wait, we are fighting to give the Iraqis Linux. Have we decided on a distro yet?
I'm a man of wealth and taste.
Real Programmers don't write in FORTRAN. FORTRAN is for pipe stress freaks and crystallography weenies. FORTRAN is for wimp engineers who wear white socks.
