13 internets to you, sir. Congratulations, enjoy your prize.

Sure, but can you imagine the eBay listing fee, commission, and worse - the paypal fees?

Just imagine having 2 billion dollars frozen in your paypal account when the buyer files a dispute.

Sheeeeeeeesh.

I thought about moderating your comments, but instead I'll post my analysis of your "analysis":

For an article that was about things your kids may never know about, that was a heck of a lot of blather about how the article was wrong because you do all this stuff.

Lucky for you, I didn't need to post two enormous, useless comments just to point this out.

Fabulous, even.

Wait...

D'oh!

it is cool to start a thought in the subject field, and finish it in the body field.

Good grief how I hate that. It can completely change the meaning of a post.

This may come as a surprise to you... but if you can put the number into a webpage... so can that person in authority. Whether it's a receipt you keep with the vote readable, or a number you put into a webpage.

Any time that you can verify after you leave the polling place which way your vote was recorded ... so can someone else. And that can lead to very serious consequences. Loss of job, family, the stakes are endless.

All that is required for you to verify your vote is a human-readable paper record that will be kept separate from the electronic record, but doesn't leave the polling place. That way you can verify it after you vote electronically, and if a recount is done, the paper trail box can be unlocked and counted.

It aint trekkie unless it's CleverNickname insisting they have to reverse the polarity of the main deflector dish ;)

Well, it's not to some of us, I guess.

Mr. Shenanigans is calling from Soviet Russia on line 1.

Damn. Out of mod points.

-1 Troll - that'll have to do.

Although... if there was a "-1 Really, REALLY Boring" then I think I'd be tempted use that one first :)

That's funny... I submitted it, and I thought it was an interesting thing to read/see, even if it was a bit PR-ish.

That's the way these things work. What you see as just a press release could be what I see as an interesting art show.

All generalizations are a bad thing.

Does it bother Left Hand that you are now seeing Right Hand? I mean, they are in constant contact...

Kind of curious how Left Hand was a screamer, but at the same time I really don't want to know :)

If you think that you misunderstood him then the appropriate thing to do is to apologize, not to attempt to further insult him. And then you should probably think longer about whether you understand what people are saying before you post online about something.

It's great that you take initiative to learn a lot of languages, I applaud you for that. However, the effort you have expended in this endeavor does not entitle you to behave as badly as you have.

You should really consider apologizing.

You should contact Taco... he's been suffering from this for years, which in turn has been making us "suffer" duplicates for years!
