Someone earlier in the thread posted that one could receive a DWI for operating a bicycle in FL after drinking. This struck me as particularly funny considering that in Amsterdam, half of the people riding their bicycles (which is an absolutely astonishing number by the way) are coming from the bar!
I think it’s absurd to think that GM could EVER make the best cars in the world, union or no union. They’ve never made the best cars in the world, why would they all of the sudden start now? Perhaps they could take back the low/middle end from the Japanese (and Koreans, and soon the Chinese) but the best cars in the world always have (and most likely will) come from Europe....especially Germany.

Unless things have changed radically, it's not the downloading that is the problem here, it's the uploading that got this girl in trouble. Many point to point programs upload everything that is being downloaded as well as everything that is in any shared (or incoming items) folder. Some programs may even make available all files of a certain type, depending on the way the software is configured. If you do choose to download music illegally, make sure that the software you use allows you to turn the sharing function off.
Tyler Durden is the main character in the movie Fight Club. One of the things that he does in that movie is to splice porn into other films. Hence the comment.
It's free, it works amazingly well, easiest to use out of any of the distributions I've tried, and it's secure. There are some "extensions" that you can run (Automatix 2 is crucial) that will give you all of the multimedia add-ons that you will need.
And you can set up your system to dual boot, so you don't have to get rid of windows. Plus you can run windows applications with the windows emulator called Wine.
I only use my windows partition when I access some specialized software I have on one of my machines. Ubuntu is that good.

Dr. Achim Wuesthof, the doctor in charge of the boys hormone therapy at a clinic in Hamburg, said he and his colleagues, who evaluated the boy, thought it was best to start treatment as soon as possible, even though it is illegal to perform sex-change therapy on children under 16 in most European countries.
Shouldn't that have been Wusthof, given the eventual outcome?
