  1. Thats a stretch. In fact it's held up as an example of what not to do over here in pinko Europe. Well, everything even vaguely American is, but thats beside the point.
  2. I'm curious as to how far Guard Dog would follow the logic of his libertarian conception of freedom and individual choice. Should we legalize crack cocaine ?. It's a choice after all, and drug dealers only supply a means to individual choice denied people by a repressive system.
  3. To me it was obviously something going on in Tigh\s mind, an interrogation into what it means to be cylon, and Six is figuring that out. Beating him up was a communication of sorts with his subconscious.
  4. I guess with the inflation inherrent in such an interdependent system a 10 means that they really do like it, above the usual levels of keeping everybody happy .
  5. Ohh i'm pretty sure spending tax money on lions would be considered discriminatory.
  6. So you contest that abstinence does not constitute effective sex-ed, that creationalism is a humbug science and that the division of church and state in a multicultural society makes it a bad idea to have the kids recite Christian prayers ? I'm just trying to understand what level of crackpot i'm dealing with here.
  7. Right, since of course only those on the right have political agendas Where is the evidence that the "abstinence policy" is the reason for the increase in STD? Name a 'lberal' polticial agenda that has damaged primary education to the same extent as those mentioned.
  8. The fact that federal power cannot meddle directly in primary education on the state level is not necessarily a good thing. One might lament the lack of an iron fist swooping down to mercilessly eradicate school prayer, creationalism and abstinence once and for all and kicking the right wing Christians out of education to find a political battleground somewhere else.
  9. Theres robots, robots will do.
  10. Torrents come in random chunks. I think he means something that can play a partially completed audio or video torrent file.
  11. I don\t think there is such a thing.
  12. 'nother nail in the coffin
  13. It's like it's been said already, XP works, and Vista can't run lots of software you might have already. It's one of those incarnations of Windows that doesn't seem justified.
  14. What do you mean. You can change the elements on a mac just as easily as on a PC. Although if you are really the type who likes to dig in a computer's innards, mac is not really for you to begin with.
  15. Yes, there was a time when Star trek was the only game in town, and TNG was considered progressive.
  16. Alienware is a bit like buying a mac. It's all very slick and quality, and also very bad value for money, compared to what you could buy and stick together yourself. Although you would have to spend a whole lot of time researching. Not all home builds come off that well.
  17. The only value star trek has now is kitsch, seeing as how both TNG and the last failed incarnation of the show have been debunked in their conception of sci fi. In that sense a return to Kirk makes perfect sense. I have a lot of sentimental attachment to TNG, but it so thoroughly and completely pales in comparison to say, Battlestar Gallactica.
  18. On the wrong side of 30 here.
  19. 10 years ago the sound of a bus stopping was a whole cascade of painful screeches to me. Now it barely registers. After 20 your body begins its slow trek downhill, thats just the way it is.
  20. Spaceballs
  21. You know how it's always easier to give advice about someone else life than realize things about your own. Well here goes : Go do whatever it is that will make your life exciting. Just being comfortably settled shouldn't be the end goal in itself.
  22. I think it's entirely possible that they wind up chewing each other's heads off and hand everything to McCain despite being acutely aware of the danger.
  23. Reagan democrats ? The notion that Bush was behind 9/11 has to do with America's fascination with conspiracy theories, it's just as much Michigan militia as ultra hippies. Mainly it's just a story thats so good that it doesn't matter if it's true or not. It takes on a life of its own.
