I found it to be perplexing, still to this day no one is saying why (besides writing some books) he has been banned from the schools and teaching. Last time I checked we were still afforded the freedom of speech!!!

New WoW Patch Brings Cross-Server Instances 342

Posted by Soulskill on Wednesday December 09, 2009 @04:36AM from the new-and-shiny dept.

ajs writes "World of Warcraft's Wrath of the Lich King expansion was staggered into 4 phases. The fourth and final phase, patch 3.3, was released on Tuesday. This patch is significant in that it will be the first introduction of one of the most anticipated new features in the game since PvP arenas: the cross-realm random dungeon, as well as the release of new end-game dungeons for 5, 10 and 25-player groups. The patch notes have been posted, and so has a trailer. The ultimate fight against the expansion's antagonist, the Lich King a.k.a. Arthas, will be gated as each of the four wings of the final dungeon are opened in turn — a process that may take several months. The next major patch after 3.3 (presumably 4.0) will be the release of Cataclysm, the next expansion."

I can't believe no one has brought this up yet, but ... I live in a rural area that has a lot of amish folks riding around in thier horse and buggy. They tear up the roads worse than any other form of transportation ... BY FAR! Yet they don't buy any fuel for those things and therefor don't pay any taxes to repair the roads. I don't see big brother telling them that they have to pay an extra tax on oats. Also the roads that are often traveled by the horse and buggies are repaired at a MUCH HIGHER rate than the roads less travelled by the buggies. For example, the main highway gets paved every 10 years or so, but the side road that the horse and buggy takes on a regular basis needs repaving or patching every 3 to 5 years.
