Comment Re:I hate ABS. (Score 2, Interesting) 805

Dumbest thing I have ever read about ABS. If ABS is making control of your "much WORSE" then you must be trying to fight it or something. ABS is great, just push down the pedal as hard as you can and let the computer stop the car for you.

It is possible (don't know much about Sentra's) that you have front disk brakes and rear drum brakes (still pretty common). In that configuration ABS isn't as effective as on a 4 wheel disk system but even in that configuration the computer can pump the brakes far faster than you could ever hope for. Not only that most ABS can control each wheel seperately. In a 4 wheel disk 3 or 4 channel ABS the stopping capabilites of your car in dry and defintely wet conditions is FAR superior to what you will obtain by yourself.

Comment Re:ATT has the contract to implement the DNC (Score 1) 323

The AT&T press release does a decent job of summing up their involvement.

"...contract calls for software, applications and database development and the integration of voice services into an Internet environment."

$3.5 million is a good junk of change, but by the time you develop the application/database logic (including the simple/functional website) and integrate it all with an interactive voice response system and then pay the subcontracts... not much $ is left.

The $3.5 million contract only covered through September 2003. I assume the contract was extended (up to nine years), but I haven't seen any details on the contract extension.

Web Bugs? Not going to lose any sleep. Anyhow, I am more worried about that stupid gov't chip implanted in my head.
