greywar; you have hit the . . . . on the head. It is clear that Vannos, Hack, and SuperCat are either the same person or just a couple (three) linux users that think that they already know everything. I pretty much suspect they picked up on the article Brad wrote off of Neowin (it was linked to joeuser). It is also perfectly clear they do not know who Brad is, or they wouldn't be saying the things their attempting to pick forward.

Reply to Blaming the victims of terrorists in Current Events JoeUser Forums

First: Brad the only reason for no answer to your first blog is because all that came to mind was nuc the hell out of the middle east, and turn it into a sea of glass. That is the wrong way to think, thus after some thought I came to the conlucsion that maybe we first request that the nations who would harbor such individuals turn them other to us. If not then turn that nations cities one at a time into a sea of glass. Maybe that would get someones

Until the buying public looks deep into what these people are they will be able to continue on the path they are on now. Until the public decides it has had enough of forking out $20.00 to $100.00 for tickets to plays, ball games (all), and concerts these so called super stars will again continue on their marry way. $20,000,000 for a movie that takes only a couple of months to make is another reasons movie prices continue to raise.

Saint Ying, how does it feel being up where you are? It has to hurt going through life being so intelligent that you have no equal. You wax extremely well; you have a excellent ability to opine in a way that is wonderful, aber you also asume that all others are below you in their ability to think, and reason. Your opinion is one I do agree with in part, however, you do need to look at how victims feel after something as tragic as a loved one being m

Very well written article. This is the insightful information that helps us look at the problems in the middle east as something we all really need to look at , and think about. As for others I can only hope that come June 30th we will be out of Iraq (doubtful). Pam

Utopia is but, a dream, and there really is evil in this world. You don't have to believe in a god to know that there are evil people. All we have to do is look back through history. Though I hate to use some of the more obivous ones here goes: Hilter, Stalin, Ted Bundy, Sadden Hussin just to name a few. Also let look at another hole in your theroy; whoes going to administrater this treatment. You indicated experts, but who are the experts? Yo

Reply to Intelligence isn't wisdom in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

Sure like this site. There are just so many good to great debates. The fact that you have a thirty something, and a seventeen (or something) debating on the intelligence and wisdom borne into humans makes trully interesting reading. What I see here is the young and upcoming bull, and the older bull who has yet to reach that point in life where death has not become a major factor. Both have great points even though in the truest sense the older bull

After reading JeremyG’s article on what is basically a need to rid ourselves of those who do not confirm to the norm (physically and mentally) of society I find this sad. The reason I find this sad is because as someone in a sense I belong in the categories he was talking about. I was born in 1946, and in 1949 was diagnosed as a Type 1 Diabetic. Not q

Oh, by God, run for the hills, and mountains, hide in the forrest because here comes the big bad U.S.A. Their going to use that big bad foreign policy and aid of their's to do terrible things to us. There is no country on this planet which hasn't done something wrong, however, the U.S. is at the time on top, so it is easy for all to critize its policies.

Reply to How minimum wage costs jobs in Politics JoeUser Forums

I think that most of the people who are commenting on this specific topic need to take Business Princples 101. The one thing missing in this discussion is something called an operating ratio. The operating ratio of a company encompasses a large amount of space to write about, but least see if I can break it down to just a few things that are key to running a company. First is wages (salary, and hourly) on the average is somewhere around twenty-five

Reply to Time For Kids is Biased! in Politics JoeUser Forums

Go for it girl. As a democrate I also find this type of thing highly unnecesarry. As a former teacher I think it is with a doubt unfair to the children to be given misinformation of this nature (though both parties do this type of B. S.). One thing we learn as teachers is the mind of a child between K and 5th grade are highly opened to any thing that can be placed in them. Also, teachers (believe this) are some of the most influential individuals

Sorry don't really care one way or another. Have never listened to Limbaugh, Hannity, or any other conservative. Nothing against them other then they are just that, conservative. O' Reilly he is the type I listen to just to hear, and get some ideas of what the other side thinks and feels about what is in the fore front of the news. I used to listen to Al Combs, however, his show was dropped out here in the hinterlands of the American Bibile Belt (c

Reply to Why Palestine Resonates in International JoeUser Forums

A very insightful article. But, there is a point where one has to say so what. This has been going on now for somewhere in the neighorhoood of say a couple thousand years. There seems to be no let up on either side. Because of this there has come a time when the rest of the world just throw up their hands, and say what the hell (and that is now). Nothing anyone does seems to work. One of the things Clinton attempted to do prior to leaving office

Reply to Some of you are on thin ice... in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Brad, It is good to see that there are rules on this site. Just as there are rules on the debate team. The idea is to get your point accross, or at least attempt to do so in a civilized manner. We all like to opine about something, thus we all have our own ideals, and feelings about specific topics and subject matter. So, in the true ideals of debate least do so without the bringing down of one another. Pam

Another point: If you think Hilary ran for Senator just to say she was a Senator you better think again.

Good article. The problem is am I the only one who saw it as an advertisement for John Kerry. Also, it was a bit to long and drawn out before he reached the point he was attempting to make (vote for Kerry). As a democrate Kerry is the last person on my list of people to vote for. Nader is looking better every day now. And, before you other democrates tell me that is throwing away my vote remember what Ross did to the first Bush. That's right he a

After reading your article I find that being a 57 year old diadetic is not all that bad. I have been since age two, and a type I mellitus since age nine. I lost my first leg at 19, and the second at 27, however, my life has been without problems since. Yes I take my shots four times a day. But, I have not had to go through the pain you have. Life is to precious to let the the little things brother you, and it is because of people like you who help me remember that there are worse things in
