The LOTR strategy games were good - inclduing War of the Ring, which you can get for supercheap, and Battle for Middle Earth 1/2.

The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Ring

The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II

Action-wise, Return of the King is also fun for co-op play on consoles. My wife and I played it through twice.

Yeah, but the "buy total shit because it's homemade" argument is dead in the water. Should you subsidize inferior, inefficient products with your pocketbook? No, and no economist would tell you to.

"Buy American" is patriotic-sounding, but wrong. Punishing buggywhip businesses that is darwinian, and - long term - better for the economy.

The cost of the fuel is reflected in the price of the product - if it makes economic sense to buy CFLs, it makes environmental sense too.

Yeah, I find it hard to believe. If the economics work, then the envronment aspects (probably) work out too.

If $10 worth CFLs can certainly save you more then $10 worth of electricity; but the OP think it costs more than $10 worth of oil to ship it here? If true, then they're loosing money on each shipment.

In short.. bullshit.

That's the best part of the GPL - if the court did decide that the GPL constitutes a "contract without consideration," and therefore was null and void... then the person making the copies is a copyright infringer. They've just argued away the only protection they had from a copyright lawsuit; they need to go back and negotiate with the copyright holder, because they have no permission to make copies.

The GPL is Judo for copyright law, using the aggressor's own weight against him.
