I know. What I was saying is that one has to go into multi-disciplinary

Roger, do you have any good sources on how much of a threat that is and what we are possibly doing that could affect that? Sources? How about the mass extinction of about 245 million years ago, which has come down to being a eruption of methane sulfate during a warming period (way before humans were supposedly doing the warming) and, although it took a few thousand years because it wasn't enough to cause immediate extinctions, we're talking about virtually all land based life and 70% of ocean born life.

Well, you should have said constipation because laxative means that things

Kerry Tells Bush to 'Get Real' on Assault Weapons ST. LOUIS (Reuters) - Democratic candidate John Kerry (news - web sites) on Friday said President Bush (news - web sites)'s failure to fight for a renewal of a ban on assault weapons will make it easier for terrorists to get the lethal weapons. Citing the 9/11 commission and other reports, Kerry said that al Qaeda, blamed for the attacks on America three years ago, had issued a manual that urged followers to "come to America and buy assault weapons." "Why is George Bush (news - web sites) making the job of terrorists easier and making the job for America's police officers harder?" he asked in a separate written statement. playon wrote: On Wed, 08 Sep 2004 17:12:27 -0500, Pete Dimsman wrote: playon wrote: Actually it's a non-issue, the whole assault rifle ban was a big, fake bandaid from the start.

Al, read this article: http://tinyurl.com/3hwvy This part supports my point: Even groups that back renewing the law acknowledge the gun industry found loopholes and that dangerous weapons do remain on U.S. streets. But they argue that without the ban, the problem will grow worse. It may grow worse, but the point is, it has never been very difficult for anyone to buy weapons of this type in America if they are determined to have them. |

I guess you must just enjoy pooping on the path and ****ing people off. That's sort of sad. I think that you've hit upon a fair analogy. Usenet is a shared, global resource and therefore depends on the people using it to obey the guidelines. To those people who respond to points like that with, 'Who are you to tell me what to do? There's nothing you can do to stop me!', it's difficult to know what to say. This is an example of the ideology of 'modern people'. 'I'm alright jack so **** you buddy!'. The idea of making a bit of a sacrifice by adhering to the voluntary rules for the benefit of the common whole just doesn't occur to them. Why should they, if they don't *have* to? Apparently you have not yet read the RAP charter. It forbids OT posting. Every society has rules. Those who break them knowingly have boundary issues, or worse.

How do those not fit into audio work? Must not we do those in order to remain alive and sane? Crazy dead people could deliver regrettable audio. -- ha |

Perhaps its time for a constitutional reconvention in light of all that has changed since then. There are lots of laws on the books in lots of places that are just no longer relevant and no longer enforced. Bob -- "Things should be described as simply as possible, but no simpler." A. Einstein |
