Well naturally, that would be an arbitrary decision. I actually try to be more succesful to help others in some form or another. Being greedy is such a poor attribute for a person to have... I believe.

Me personally. HELL no. I am so against (corporate) power and greed. I'd allow myself to make a reasonable profit and then slap an iron-clad OpenSource license on it, so I could share it entirely with the masses. You hit chord with that question, cashonly. :)

geez. Just hit the search button with your buddy's name. No big deal and no need for un-necessary bloat.

I know you're kidding but it's free as in conservation of energy not free as in "free beer". Whether it's for real or not....? But, they did offer it up for public scientific scrutiny... all the power to them! :p All the power to them... yuk yuk yuk... :p

Not according to current FISA laws. Immediate tapping is permissable, providing the application for that tap is provided to the court within 72 hours, or something like that. If the the current warrent constraints impedes an immediate threat then why didn't they approach Congress with this...

What I very simply don't understand is... If they aren't abusing peoples' constitutional rights, then why not just get a warrant. I don't see the admin's reasoning on this at all. Without 'checks and balances', absolute power is proven to be corrosive.

Jesus, Lord... Why is this country so polarized? I really care to understand, I really do. Amen. It is what it is. I don't care what politcal party he represents. I really don't care. They both suck. As do those that only want Kool-aid at a blind-folded taste test challenge. Kt says...

I sometimes find it hard to believe that Comcast is a nation wide company. I've had problems with their service and their support, but I still use them as my primary source. But, this is only because of the lack of competition in the cable industry. Where I live, there are two cable providers...

Bull dinkies...:D. From a purely systematic point of view, NO knowledge of 'trading' is at all required to be an extremely efficient (most profitable), trader. It's all in the data and how knowledgeable one is to extrapolate reasoning purely from that data source.
