Who is threatening to attack Iran right now. Who feels most threatened by the arab countries, and the arabs within their own country. Who invaded, so unsuccessfully Lebanon. If Isreal feels like it is up against a wall, and it has always felt threatened, maybe they would use them.
Really? Are they? Where did you see that? Is it imminent? Can I buy tickets?

Nonsense. Most authors wouldn't write books if they weren't going to get paid.

What a weird and narrow view on IP. Are you saying that my LOB code should be given away but the game I'm writing should be paid for?

I have planned to take Visual Studio 2010 Certification exams this year and my main sources are these three books: - MCTS Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-511): Microsoft .NET Framework 4—Windows Applications Development - MCTS Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-515): Microsoft .NET Framework 4—Web Applications Development - MCTS Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-516): Microsoft .NET Framework 4—Accessing Data with ADO.NET The problem is that I have downloaded these books illegally for free and worse than that I don’t feel guilty at all.:confused: How about you? Have you ever downloaded programming books illegally? Did you feel guilty after that? :confused:

Primary and secondary education are free, that doesn't mean the teachers don't get paid.
It isn't free, you just don't pay the teachers directly (the government is in the middle).

No cash no motivation...do you code for free?

I'm pleading a Bill Clinton on this one, I did download an illegal book but I didn't read it. :)

No that is a product you have designed, what i meant was all educational material should be freely available to anyone and everyone.

So it is free, you don't pay anything extra for using it than you do for not using it. The money you pay the government is the penalty for having the gall to live. How dare you.
Exactly. It wouldn't be very fair to people who don't like reading to charge them for it. Eduction (at least in the US) is a bit different... I believe you actually have to go to school up to a certain point (though parents can opt out if they choose to home school their child).

Except that in most places that education is compulsory, so you don't really have the option not to use it.

When reviewing resumes, I often think MS Certification is bordeline entertainment. So even by your logic I don't understand, this case is still wrong.

We have certainly proved that. Both Iraq and Libya gave up on nuclear weapon development, and got invaded. The message that many got from this is that you need to have nuclear weapons to keep the US from invading you.

The US invasion of Libya was when? On the other hand: http://www.greenchange.org/article.php?id=4884[^] All those people had a nuclear program and now don't. But where's the laundry list of invasions to go with that if your point was valid? It would have taken you six seconds to confirm what you were posting before posting it. Why didn't you? Do you have so little respect for those who you might want to convince? Or are you trolling? Rhetorical questions. Don't bother to answer.
