  1. What information do you have that says they must be physically present to give approval?
  2. I don't see what's wrong with *behind the counter with parent approval* only in elementary school.
  3. Wow, that's not condescending at all.
  4. I was just being nit picky. I can't find anything to pick on in this one.
  5. Technically that's not a vote, that's a supreme court ruling.
  6. I'll check out the links, I'm actually curious about it. My current understanding is that grains where the first plant to be domesticated and it doesn't follow logically in my mind that early humans wouldn't domesticate a plant that they weren't already using.
  7. Huh, interesting. If this is a democracy, and we vote a president by majority vote, then how did Bush, who lost majority vote, get reelected again?You know what, I believe we've been over this before, in another thread.
  8. I didn't realize they will be coming out with a full blown Win 8, I'm hoping Ubuntu will get along with secure boot (supposedly working in the new Ubuntu 12.10) so I could wipe Windows 8 out anyways.
  9. First I would like to see how someone arrived at the conclusion that our ancestors didn't eat grains, is there some evidence of this or are they just assuming we (our ancestors) never ate seeds?. Second our ancestors ate whatever happened to be nearby, that doesn't necessitate that they were genetically *designed* to eat that, it's just what was available. Excepting specific medical conditions whole grains are rather nutritional and healthy. I just don't buy it!
  10. Let's just discard all influences of morality and call it even.
  11. * Hey look a raw acorn on the ground, I know I'm allergic to nuts but I think I'll attempt to stick this hard, raw, acorn that is still inside it's shell in my mouth and rub it all over my body * I don't mean to be cruel but, come on. If you have a nut allergy, you know it by high school, and you should be past the stage of *pretending you're a squirrel*
  12. What's that old adage? 'Be careful what you wish for'
  13. As an aside, I'm very impressed by the Surface Tablet's with Win 8 RT. The cover/keyboard + kickstand makes them a great replacement option for my netbook. I just don't know if Tomboy Notes and Ubuntu One will work on Win 8 Rt or not.
  14. I'm still watching this on Netflix, I officially hate you.
  15. Sephiroth kills Aeris.
  16. Tomdroid notes. I use a program on my netbook and desktop called Tomboy notes, it's a great note taking application that syncs to the cloud. Tomdroid notes just allows me to view my notes on my phone.
  17. Neither does it being what most people would do make it an appropriate reaction either. Sidestepping peoples emotions is exhausting, so is explaining what you said due to terrible reading comprehension. Perhaps I am insensitive, I would rather someone get worked into a knot misreading what I correctly wrote rather than work myself into a knot trying to construe some PC crap to avoid offending random Internet guy number 3456822321.
  18. It takes to much work, some people just blow up at everything. You are in control of your own response. If you want to hop around mad because Hitler was the first thing that came to my mind when thinking of terrible tragedies that's your day wasted being hopping mad, not mine. My view anyways.
  19. Android Tablet Okay, I'mandroidtablet an open source fanboy and won'tandroidtabletbe of any real help here. Android Tablet The e-Reader only devices have better displays that you can see in the park at high noon in the sun and their batteries last practically forever, the tablets can obviously do more stuff but they don't have that highly reflective e-ink display and super long battery life that an eReader does. I say android tablet because Google Play books come DRM free, meaning you can export them to any other device (like your phone) that can read ebooks and read them. As a rule of thumb I hate being told what I can do and can't do with media that I purchased, and despise DRM. Plus a tablet can, well do more stuff, and you seem to be interested in the do more stuff part.
  20. I'm not a very practical person. Plus I live in Southern California, in the 120 degree's in the summer part.
  21. He's saying "Look at these terrible tragedies that happened in the past and the world didn't end then, therefore, just because the world doesn't end doesn't mean it wasn't a terrible tragedy" He's not saying "Obama is Hitler reincarnate"
  22. I don't think Cathy's interpretation was reasonable, it is however the interpretation I have come to expect from most people.
  23. I get 70 mpg driving this baby to work and school. Mine looks a little dustier than the pictured one however.
