DUH!!!

I recall reading the original short story in middle school. It was in one of those "Weekly Reader" type magazines that apparently aren't around any more. Then again, I grew up in suburban Chicago, which is definitely different from the South.

As a sixth grader, I found the story interesting. When I read the novel as an adult, I was rather less impressed. I think that Card is much better with short stories than with novels.

If you don't mind, I'd like to use that line as my signature.

Why wouldn't you just set up a client rule to mark the message as read and automatically delete it? That way, there's no potential of backscatter and you're not bothered by spam or unwanted forwarding. As I understand it, most mail clients are able to automate this process.

This may not work for your particular application, and if this is the case you are free to disregard.

+10...If I had mod points, I'd put them all on this comment.

Splitters!

I'm afraid that won't stop the problem Google is trying to address, which is cheap crap running "Android."

Users won't care about "Free" or "Approved" versions...if they even read far enough to notice. They'll see that the cheap crappy device they're looking at runs "Android" poorly, and therefore think "Android must be crap, so I'll get an iPhone/iPad instead."

Remember Rule #1: People are generally stupid.

When I get asked by bosses/coworkers to be Facebook friends, I politely suggest we connect through LinkedIn.

The right tool for the job, etc.

How's that?

Of course they don't expect you to sift and delete. They expect you to PAY UP!

Let's see....60 GB of music rounds to a fee of about $1.5 million, give or take. Of course, this is according to the RIAA, so your millage may vary. Just think of the poor starving record executives!
