Default posting options are there... Create a list called "Restricted" and add people to it and then restrict their access in security to not see your wall. It takes 5 minutes to create and one second to add a new friend to it after it's set up. If you don't want to restrict every post, there's a 'lock' under each post that if you want to block the post to the "Restricted" list, you click it and customize and add the "Restricted" list to "Hide this from". Lists are your friend.
For calling yourself educated, that's a poorly formed sentence. It's not the controversy of using an embryo, it's the thought that it leads to breeding and harvesting embryos for the use of stem cell.
Yep, because the Taliban are only in caves and have no ability to use any form of modern communication or tactics. I have to laugh at some of these posts that make the Taliban out to be stupid (and in some cases almost innocent). There wasn't an internet during WWII but tactical maps and plans taken by troops were still useful and could be communicated back. They obviously don't have everything at their disposal that the US troops have but they certainly have many means of communication, whether stolen or otherwise and much greater than what was available in WWII.
I don't know why we would underestimate the abilities of our future generations or more specifically the computers of the future. The ability to analyze the physical attributes and extract data doesn't really seem like a big deal.
Then again, who cares, we only need something that will last for 3 years, right?:)
While I don't support EA or DRM (and refuse to buy Warhead for that reason) I have been soaking up everything I can on the situation and have one correction to your statement... EA has clarified that they will release a patch to remove activation in the event that they take down an authentication server. Obviously this can be taken as a "we'll see" mentality but I thought I would post that they've addressed activation.
