Because beating up a man of war can be dangerous to your health? If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

And, George Orwell appears more prescient every year. «While I complain of being able to see only a shadow of the past, I may be insensitive to reality as it is now, since I'm not at a stage of development where I'm capable of seeing it.» Claude Levi-Strauss (Tristes Tropiques, 1955)

Well, not everybody can craft elegantly eloquent death threats. Kudos to the judge to recognise that, and recognise the intent hidden behind the lack of talent! A new .NET Serializer All in one Menu-Ribbon Bar Taking over the world since 1371!

Thanks ! I'm looking forward to reading. «While I complain of being able to see only a shadow of the past, I may be insensitive to reality as it is now, since I'm not at a stage of development where I'm capable of seeing it.» Claude Levi-Strauss (Tristes Tropiques, 1955)

I saw that piece, I must say that her enthusiasm is boundless, it was nice to watch. Refreshing to a child that doesn't have a damn cell phone in their hands.

The "net neutrality" faction is significantly more evil than its opponents. Its backers want a government agency to block, throttle, monitor, censor, and discriminate internet content in their favor, creating corrupt content monopolies. Their "net neutrality" stance is an outright lie, and their recent political failure is a free win for ordinary Americans.

Sounds like a great presentation for a science fiction convention but not much else.

Marc, just don't use it on anyone you have romantic interest in. They'll call the authorities... Software Zen: delete this;

Then your intuition would be correct sir. I can tell you what I got out of that poem in regards to thinking clearly and by extension intelligence... it's something I deal with constantly being in IT. Sometimes the "smartest" people can have the least in life and suffer from lack of experience. You can't very well experience anything but thinking if all you do is think and nothing else. And since experience is the real teacher in life, one has to beg the question if "intelligence" is really intelligent if the cost of too much of it is to have no experiences. Ironically, whether or not the mind over thinks or under thinks, the result is still being slow in life. Go figure. And like you, I believe wisdom is what remains after you unlearn what's been learned from the status quo. Jeremy Falcon

Truly, I say onto thee, nothing is more certain than taxes, death and Microsoft's quality. I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
