@alek2407: One problem about the schools being connected to the government: federal money goes to the school and as a result they need to follow/meet certain requirements thus they are connected to the government that way.

@I Think We're Property: It's not "Protestant cultural baggage." it is just an ignorant grandstanding DA with his head up his a**.

@wild homes loves you but chooses darkness!: Who's everyone?

@FriedPeeps: First off I never said all Apple products are inferior I specifically said "some" of Apple products can be considered inferior to others (of comparable type/function/purpose/price, etc). Just as some Sony, Dell, Microsoft, etc..... are inferior to other products.

@YummyCyanide: Police don't do there jobs, you know enforce the law not just their opinion of the law.

@FriedPeeps: He's a douche for parking in handicapped spaces and not following the motor vehicle laws.

@shua.jo.m: It may be great quality but usability (FBI warnings, previews, etc) and being able to have it in multiple form factors (digital/dvd/bluray, etc) and multiple formats is lost and you are screwed out of some of these options when you purchase the limited(DRM, spyware, etc) product from the media…

@maximum_sarge: Exactly, just block the car in and sit in your car while you call the cops that way the owner will get fined 2-3x for being in the handicapped spaces and for blocking the walkway.

@juicysushi: Last time I checked the camaro's weight was between 2800-3400 lbs fully loaded. So the mustang isn't that much lighter and considering that it still achieves 28-32 mpg on average I think that it is pretty good overall. My experience with my camaro with a few minor tweaks/updates the mpg can be increased…

@I see the light. It burns!: It doesn't matter if the signal reaches them or not. The person has to be an authorized user and then crack they key. See Maave's explanation above for more details.

@carneymi: It should probably be closer to around $400 a month for a family of 4. I can't seeing spending less then that unless everbody eats spam and the cheapest and worst meats, etc.

@battra92: Synthetic oil can last up to and sometimes past 7,500 miles. 3-5,000 miles is the average oil change duration. If you have a warranty you usually have to change your oil every 3-5 months or no more then 5,000, whichever comes first.

@Wabbited: I for one have a problem with this whole system let alone any form of DRM, which is one reason people fileshare. People don't want to be watch and have everything they do monitored.

@Ms.Frost: Don't forget that it's not just that one child. Many times others will be infected especially when it comes to diseases require the child to be of a certain age, etc. That one child could infect many other kids and end up killing them due to the parents ignorance.

@franco1975 [Troll ]: Exactly, all this is is a form of meditation or more specifically biofeedback in which you allow your mind to go to a rested/higher state (relaxation) and can allow people to feel high/refreshed/etc.

@jbaranski: Your example is misleading if not completely wrong. File sharing/P2P isn't stealing anything since it is a copy and thus not depriving the store/person/etc the original product.

@Ninety-9: I agree the system should be opt-in only. It does get ridiculous considering how much paper is wasted on phone books. However I think when you move you should get a card asking to opt-in just do to current Internet connectivity in certain rural areas.

@Yinzers Are People Too: I'm not saying that anyone should attack a cop except like as you stated if endangered/family threatened/last resort. However I could imagine this happening as a result of this particular cops stupidity/ignorance with regards to the law. Just stating that this whole story could have had a…

@Ninety-9: I can understand your argument but yellow pages or more importantly local pages can be quite handy in new houses/places. Also local pages have info in them that is quite handy. I do agree that phone books should be opt in/opt out type of affair. When I worked for the city and the library we would get stacks…

@psychiccheese: Go to an Allergist physician and get tested for what your allergic to. The test isn't that bad especially in recent years. 20 years ago it was anywhere from 50 to 150 needles pricks on your arms and back. Now its 5-20 max to be tested for everything. If your only interested in bug/bee reaction then it…
