This isn't how it works in the UK. If BT has phone lines going somewhere, then you have dozens of ISPs to choose from.

They can be buying direct from BT wholesale, or own anything quite a bit further up the chain. Noone should really be touching the BT consumer ISP for any reason.

Nuclear weapons need to be replaced, and you do sell quite a lot to NATO member states.

Actually, the Japanese had already offered to surrender before the bombs were dropped. It was a stupid and unrealistic conditional surrender, but they'd never have fought a proper land war on home soil.

Uh, GP's point was that imperial japan and nazi germany were rather different things..

Let's be honest, Russia's claims of georgian 'genocide' were about as accurate as western europe's claims of serbian ethnic cleansing in kosovo...

Just standard NATO and russia taking political potshots at eachother by getting involved in someone else's civil war.

Hah, I don't think you understand bureaucracy.

The BBC have shovelled a HUGE quantity of money into iPlayer. That spending has to be justified, which means it will stay largely as it is for at least the next five years.

probably the mac version

Please don't use terms you don't understand.

India is not a communist country, or under the political influence of the soviet union. Therefore it is not a "second world country".

The term 'developing country' was made up to replace 'third world' after the collapse of the soviet union made the first second third system obsolete.

yup, nothing like a nice game of gaelic football.

This isn't the government. The IWF is a private organisation that ISPs voluntarily sign up to.

In my opinion, this is even worse, as there is NO review process, and noone ot be held accountable for mistakes.

Put labels on them and keep them in a credit card pocket of your wallet.

This is seriously not a difficult enough problem to warrant a /. story..

"prices as low as 69c" means 10% at that price, the majority of selling tracks at $2.50

There'll be plenty to whine about.

I did far far less than 52 hours of homework a year.

Thinking about it, there may be a reason I failed high school..

Well, at least it's a nice hotel.

Do remember that for every Watchmen project, Gibbon gets paid twice, both his share and the writer's. I'm sure he's happy about anything that has the name Watchmen...
