[2001-06-14 09:14:00] - dewey: Ideally, You wouldn't have to raise sales taxes or tariffs at all, you would just force the govnerment to cut some of it's spending -paul

[2001-06-14 09:12:00] - Did you guys hear about the mother who married a man who was convicted of raping her daughter for like 8 years? She married him right before he was hauled off to jail -paul

[2001-06-14 09:12:00] - although, with higher tarifs, then local products would be cheaper and would increase the working force in america... - dewey

[2001-06-14 09:11:00] - but charging a higher sales tax or increasing the cost of basic goods would unfairly punish the poor. - dewey

[2001-06-14 09:10:00] - funny song:  shaggy - it wasn't me  ~a

[2001-06-14 09:08:00] - dewey: Besides, you could say the money you get back due to the income tax being gone would counterbalance that -paul

[2001-06-14 09:07:00] - dewey:  that's counteracted by the fact that we would get to keep all our money, and thus have more to spend on gasoline. - mig

[2001-06-14 09:07:00] - dewey: Why would we need to increase tariffs to counterbalance the loss? Why not reduce spending? -paul

[2001-06-14 09:05:00] - mig: What ar you going to be using your Linux partition for? Are you going to have games or stuff on it? -paul

[2001-06-14 09:04:00] - mig: I would say that linux wouldn't need more than 3 gigs.  from what I understand, all the programs for it are small. - dewey

[2001-06-14 09:03:00] - paul: how expensive do you think Gasoline is going to be once we charge huge tarifs to counterbalance the loss of income tax? - dewey

[2001-06-14 09:01:00] - please don't say 0 or 30. - mig

[2001-06-14 08:30:00] - jdb: What are your thoughts on Ashcroft? -paul

[2001-06-14 08:29:00] - a: oh yeah, that setTimer function takes the argument in ms for some reason. fyi - dewey

[2001-06-14 08:25:00] - jdb: wow, well the censors will have a lot of fun with those lyrics. - dewey

[2001-06-14 08:16:00] - dewey: no one posts that much at night -dave

[2001-06-14 08:14:00] - a: i think i've noticed that every once in awhile i'll post, but never see the post show up. i don't think it's the same problem though. because the post you were talking about did show up for a bit -dave

[2001-06-14 08:09:00] - wow, still blue. - dewey

[2001-06-14 01:31:00] - or, for the lazy... http://www.buddyhead.com/music/gb/lyrics1.htm -jdb

[2001-06-14 01:30:00] - gay edge hardcore band --> http://www.buddyhead.com/music/gb/ <-- click a few times to get in, then take a look at the lyrics -jdb

[2001-06-14 00:48:00] - This looks better: http://aspn.activestate.com//ASPN/Reference/Products/ActivePerl-5.6/lib/Pod/perlfunc.html#item_flock -logan

[2001-06-14 00:43:00] - something like this? http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Reference/Products/ActivePerl-5.6/lib/Fcntl.html -jdb

[2001-06-14 00:42:00] - Install Linux, then. -logan

[2001-06-14 00:40:00] - yay!  logan is back!!!  i know fcntl doesn't work for windows.  i don't know if windows has an equivalent either.  i have to sleep now but i'll look tomorrow.  ~a

[2001-06-14 00:37:00] - a: Have you looked into fcntl for file locking?  I don't know if Windows has an equivalent. -logan

[2001-06-14 00:22:00] - hmmm.  i found a huge bug in the message board.  the bug deletes one out of about 500 posts.  it is also the bug that is throwing off the search engine.  message number 20348.5 (between 20348 and 20349), "dewey: actually, i think blue would be a nice color to have up -dave" for example, was deleted.  any one who took os may understand the issue.  i think it is that the code for my locking mechanism (here @@@/msglock.txt ) isn't atomic.  what should i do?  ~a

[2001-06-14 00:19:00] - whoops no = now. - mig

[2001-06-14 00:19:00] - the irony would be insanely hilarious if it wasn't so tragic. - mig

[2001-06-14 00:18:00] - well, we raised the limit to 21, and look what happened.  no there are more drunk driver incidents than ever. - mig

[2001-06-14 00:16:00] - would you propose that the alcohol industry operate in the same fashion? -jdb

[2001-06-14 00:15:00] - now, if movie theaters want to not admit under-17ers into r-movies, that's their own perogative, but they should not be forced to under threats of fines by the government. - mig

[2001-06-14 00:14:00] - precisely. - mig

[2001-06-14 00:13:00] - so it should work like this: posted clearly this movie is inappropriate, then admit all anyways? -jdb

[2001-06-14 00:13:00] - so why should the movie theater follow the guidelines.. .if there is no authority? -jdb

[2001-06-14 00:10:00] - you follow now? - mig

[2001-06-14 00:02:00] - i guess i should have clarified more.  the ratings system itself is not the problem, rather the problem is that the government decided to meddle with it by making itself the nanny for everyone. - mig

[2001-06-14 00:00:00] - ex:  government fining a movie theater for letting an under-17 into r-rated movie.  that is unconstitutional. - mig

[2001-06-13 23:59:00] - mig: you said current ratings system unconstitutional, then government has no business... explain more about government enforcement. -jdb

[2001-06-13 23:58:00] - you're not listening.  i said i'm fine with rating systems existing.  i don't believe that they should be enforced by the government. - mig

[2001-06-13 23:56:00] - if there is no ratings system at all, how will parents screen materials before their children view them? screen the movies themselves? maybe buy commercial movie ratings guides? -jdb

[2001-06-13 23:56:00] - paul:  liquor?!?  really.  we need to talk.    ~a

[2001-06-13 23:52:00] - jdb: Wow, that sums up how I argue perfectly -paul

[2001-06-13 23:51:00] - basically, the government has no business determining whats appropriate and inappropiate for children.  only parents are allowed to do that. - mig

[2001-06-13 23:50:00] - and don't get me started on nc-17. - mig

[2001-06-13 23:48:00] - ratings by themselves are fine.  but all they should be are just guidelines.  once the government threatens to fine theaters that let "minors" into r-rated films, i have a problem with that. - mig

[2001-06-13 23:46:00] - would you prefer no ratings at all? -jdb

[2001-06-13 23:44:00] - http://www.best.com/~sirlou/winargu.html -jdb

[2001-06-13 23:19:00] - of course that's because i think the current movie ratings system we have is also unconstitutional. - mig

[2001-06-13 23:16:00] - the new proposal is bullshit.  i think the current tipper stickers are bad enough, but this is really bad. - mig

[2001-06-13 23:03:00] - jdb: Government censorship is bad. Government pressure to censor is bad -paul

[2001-06-13 22:58:00] - what do ya'll think of that cd ratings proposal in the hip-hop article? -jdb

[2001-06-13 22:52:00] - http://www.salon.com/ent/wire/2001/06/13/hiphop_summmit/index.html

[2001-06-13 22:50:00] - http://www.salon.com/mwt/feature/2001/06/14/angry_males/index.html

[2001-06-13 22:45:00] - aba: That sucks, when are you going to be able to post from work? -paul

[2001-06-13 22:40:00] - oh, well, for anyone who cares, i cant really post anymore because of work and the fact that my computer at work isnt hooked up yet.  im not online for long from home, so if you need to get in touch with me, email is your best bet.  -  aba

[2001-06-13 22:20:00] - i'll look into it.  just gotta do a major-overhaul of my computer in a few days. - mig

[2001-06-13 22:17:00] - mig: worth it, for nothing else, for redcarpet! http://www.ximian.com/apps/redcarpet.php3 -jdb

[2001-06-13 22:17:00] - mig: it's nice http://www.ximian.com/desktop/ -jdb

[2001-06-13 22:16:00] - jdb:  well i had the choice between gnome and kde, so i picked gnome. - mig

[2001-06-13 22:12:00] - mig: install ximian desktop also? -jdb

[2001-06-13 21:17:00] - hello!  i just installed red hat 7.2!!! - mig

[2001-06-13 17:01:00] - the search engine is hundreds and hundreds of lines of code and is really hard to fix.  ~a

[2001-06-13 17:00:00] - yes, aaron.  i know the search engine breaks itself every 500 posts or so.  i can't figure out what it is for the life of me.  you guys are going to have to bear with me till i find what i am doing wrong.  ~a

[2001-06-13 16:38:00] - http://aporter.dhs.org/?a=4&d=hmmm This returns post 20372 which does not contain the word "hmmmm" -aaron

[2001-06-13 16:37:00] - Hmmm what happened to that "party game party" you were thinking about, Paul?

[2001-06-13 16:19:00] - probably, i don't see why you wouldn't be able to. - mig

[2001-06-13 16:18:00] - paul - dewey - mig: will we be able to transfer old D2 chars to the xpansion? -dave

[2001-06-13 16:05:00] - dave: Yes, I think we will be, ignore what I said previously -paul

[2001-06-13 16:04:00] - dave: read email - travis

[2001-06-13 15:54:00] - paul: wait, now you confused me, aren't we watching smj at animefest? -dave

[2001-06-13 15:52:00] - everyone check their vt email accounts for anime fest info - travis

[2001-06-13 15:27:00] - travis: I would suggest maybe sticking to new things so people don't have to catch up and watch Escaflowne. -paul

[2001-06-13 15:21:00] - travis: The question becomes, what do we do at AnimeFest then? -paul

[2001-06-13 15:08:00] - it might just be easier to plan the regular anime fest (where we'll watch saber marionette j) and see what happens with escaflowne, since most people have seen it and the people who haven't have a lot to catch up on - travis

[2001-06-13 15:07:00] - yeah, so it's not that big a deal to get it set, just at least a week or two in advance would be nice so i can make sure to get the day off - travis

[2001-06-13 15:05:00] - travis: dang, that's so far away -dave

[2001-06-13 14:58:00] - a: Is the visit to Greece this summer? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:54:00] - july 14 and 7 are out (andrew said he can't do the first saturday, and might be able to swing the third one, the 21) - travis

[2001-06-13 14:52:00] - well, we need to get dates set for all this stuff, since i don't always get weekends off - travis

[2001-06-13 14:52:00] - ah yes, just needed to do a hard refresh - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:51:00] - dewey: Will do -paul

[2001-06-13 14:49:00] - i think there are ways i can force browsers to download images every time but i haven't done that yet on that image.  ~a

[2001-06-13 14:48:00] - paul: let me know if you want to watch those eps sometime - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:48:00] - dewey: and the blue isn't half bad -dave

[2001-06-13 14:48:00] - anyway, now that I have neglected my work for so long to get to the top, I must be going. - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:48:00] - dewey: for some reason it takes a little while for the button to turn colors. -dave

[2001-06-13 14:48:00] - sometimes things will be different colors because your browser doesn't download the newest versions of images every time.  ~a

[2001-06-13 14:47:00] - vinnie: i have a feeling it's probably more to do with the dvd's themselves, though - travis

[2001-06-13 14:47:00] - http://www.newscientist.com/dailynews/news.jsp?id=ns9999837 electronic paper - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:46:00] - travis: Shush you, I'm trying to get a DVD drive for my computer but I also need a GBA... -paul

[2001-06-13 14:46:00] - a: doesn't php like the color blue? the button is purple.  I guess it didn't want me to get smacked. - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:46:00] - we could try my ps2 - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:45:00] - travis: Six tapes of SMJ eh? Should we just watch 3 of them then? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:45:00] - everyone besides paul has a dvd player - travis

[2001-06-13 14:44:00] - Well, if the next anime fest was at my house... I have a dvd player - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:43:00] - the border was blue, but the button stayed purple... - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:43:00] - huh? it went back - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:43:00] - dave: i haven't checked any others, but that's the ones everyone on the net had problems with, and it's not all copies of the dvd's and ps2s also - travis

[2001-06-13 14:42:00] - blue!!!! - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:42:00] - paul: we can't finish both!! six tapes of smj and 4 of escaflowne - travis

[2001-06-13 14:42:00] - travis: but the other dvd's do? how odd -dave

[2001-06-13 14:42:00] - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dewey

[2001-06-13 14:41:00] - dave: must make it blue!!!! - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:41:00] - travis: Shall we finish up escaflowne and SMJ for July Anime fest? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:40:00] - dewey: we've watched two tapes of smj so far. we watched one tape last time -dave

[2001-06-13 14:40:00] - dewey: but i can always bring my ps2 for an anime fest, since it's easier to move than a dvd player, except the escaflowne 5 and 6 dvds don't work in it, d'oh - travis

[2001-06-13 14:39:00] - http://www.stuff.co.nz/inl/index/0,1008,827599a12,FF.html -jdb

[2001-06-13 14:39:00] - dewey: i'm gonna smack you if you make the button blue -dave

[2001-06-13 14:39:00] - dewey: Well, I have no DVD player in my basement as of right now, so tapes are easier... -paul

[2001-06-13 14:38:00] - travis: define 'next'.  how much have I missed? I thought you only did continuations last time? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:36:00] - so for the regular fest, is there a problem with next tapes of saber marionette j? exact number to be determined, though it will probably be 4 - travis

[2001-06-13 14:35:00] - paul: I have a DVD player if that is the issue - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:35:00] - paul: what is wrong with Travis' dvds?

[2001-06-13 14:35:00] - just tell me when you'd like them and i can deliver them. - mig

[2001-06-13 14:35:00] - Riddle (for those who like english and math):  Can you finish this sequence of letters 'o t t f f s s e'? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:34:00] - mig: I think the best option would be to borrow the tapes from you then if you don't mind... -paul

[2001-06-13 14:33:00] - ack!  no allowance of HTML extended characters? &nbsp;? &eacute;? -dewey

[2001-06-13 14:32:00] - paul: s&iacute;, se&ntilde;or, pero quien es tim? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:30:00] - subbed.  watchable quality(nothing wrong with them that i know of). - mig

[2001-06-13 14:30:00] - dewey: Hoy es Miercoles -paul

[2001-06-13 14:28:00] - mig: Are the tapes subbed or dubbed? Are they good quality? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:28:00] - paul: quien es tim? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:26:00] - paul: well, if other people wanna watch them, i'd suggest using either tapes or DVDs, so if you wanna borrow them from me, you'd have to watch upstairs, and there's nothing bad in case your parents watch - travis

[2001-06-13 14:26:00] - dewey: i dunno, just always done it on saturdays - travis

[2001-06-13 14:25:00] - i'll have to 2x-check, since i don't technically own it, but i don't think there should be a problem. - mig

[2001-06-13 14:25:00] - well, since paul and dewey need to catch up and want to watch the rest of escaflowne, looks like we need to have an event for escaflowne also - travis

[2001-06-13 14:25:00] - travis: any weekend day in July is good for me.  Any reason why you don't want to do it on a sunday? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:24:00] - mig and travis: I need to get ahold of the first 13 episodes of escaflowne for me and other people (Dewey and Tim?) to watch, which one of you wants to let me borrow your stuff? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:23:00] - paul: I would like to watch the escaflowne episodes with you if we can arrange a time. - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:23:00] - travis: We might be able to do it on the 7th, I'll have to get back to you on it -paul

[2001-06-13 14:22:00] - Vinnie: when is the new bond movie slated to come out? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:21:00] - must ... make ... it ... blue ... -dewey

[2001-06-13 14:21:00] - ack! killed in mid-signature - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:20:00] - mig: ah yes, that would be a problem.  Can't hear the TV over the noise of the concert. - dewe

[2001-06-13 14:20:00] - i have all of escaflowne on tape if someone wants to borrow. - mig

[2001-06-13 14:19:00] - paul: you'd have to ask people, i think everyone has pretty much seen escaflowne, and when could you get the CDs? - travis

[2001-06-13 14:18:00] - dewey: Don't worry, I don't plan on staying ahead of you for long -paul

[2001-06-13 14:18:00] - me, btw - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:18:00] - dewey:  i've already sent an email and posted on aparna.dhs.org. - mig

[2001-06-13 14:18:00] - travis: did we watch three or four dvds at tech?

[2001-06-13 14:18:00] - all right, so july 14 is out for miguel, and paul, july 7 is out also? - travis

[2001-06-13 14:17:00] - paul: ME! - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:17:00] - vinnie: cause I would have expected something like that from the bond series - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:16:00] - boo paul, you pulled back ahead of me. -dewey

[2001-06-13 14:16:00] - travis: Has anyone else not seen Escaflowne and would have to see the same episodes I do? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:16:00] - mig: what is on the 14th? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:15:00] - dewey: dr. no? no - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:15:00] - dave: look out! here I come! - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:15:00] - a: oh, I thought that was just a feature of the font; never realized that it took differences to do that. - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:15:00] - a: ha ha, now i get it - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:15:00] - i'm fine with any day other than the 14th. - mig

[2001-06-13 14:14:00] - travis: Well, unless you let me borrow the DVDs, I am stuck with the Cds... -paul

[2001-06-13 14:14:00] - dave: how can you have a sports car with the steering wheel on the right? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:13:00] - vinnie: is Dr. No female? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:13:00] - dewey, single quotes are smart (as well as double) now.  ~a

[2001-06-13 14:13:00] - "moo 'moo" moo'

[2001-06-13 14:12:00] - mig: what day then? - travis

[2001-06-13 14:12:00] - a: huh? - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:12:00] - paul: yeah, although they won't be as good as the DVDs - travis

[2001-06-13 14:10:00] - travis: Do you have them on CD that I could borrow? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:10:00] - 'new'  ~a

[2001-06-13 14:09:00] - ack! *not* jul 14th! - mig

[2001-06-13 14:05:00] - 13 episodes, 4 tapes - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:05:00] - why does a british agent drive a german car? aren't there any british sports cars? -dave

[2001-06-13 14:05:00] - travis and vinnie: How many tapes (or episodes or DVDs or whatever) would I have to watch to catch up and by when would I have to watch it? -paul

[2001-06-13 14:04:00] - july 14 is fine by me, although I think i'll be gone one weekend in july somewhere. don't know which - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:03:00] - "james bond will return in 'dr. no means no'" - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:03:00] - vinnie/travis: oh- my bad. ---------- dewey

[2001-06-13 14:03:00] - dewey: well you better start pressuring bmw to make one then, hehe -dave

[2001-06-13 14:03:00] - dewey: that would be hilarious. reminds me of that critic joke "on his or her majesty's secret service" - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:03:00] - should we start with using july 14, then? - travis

[2001-06-13 14:02:00] - James Bond's next car should be a hydro-electric car! that would mainstream it. - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:01:00] - dewey: we don't have a day yet - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:01:00] - dewey: well, we need a date first - travis

[2001-06-13 14:01:00] - vinnie: oops, that was in reference to travis' question about having seen two tapes of smj -dave

[2001-06-13 14:00:00] - dave: timing has been left up to us by paul, except he says the first week of july is out - travis

[2001-06-13 14:00:00] - travis: http://aparna.dhs.org so we can have a single discussion - dewey

[2001-06-13 14:00:00] - paul: you could watch it on your own time. shouldn't take you too long. you can skip the first episode - vinnie

[2001-06-13 14:00:00] - dagnabit. that button is still red -dave

[2001-06-13 13:59:00] - dave: "i think so" refers to what? - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:59:00] - travis: I would consider watching escaflowne but you have to realize I haven't seen any of it, which would mean starting at the beginning again, which is probably a bad idea -paul

[2001-06-13 13:59:00] - travis: and how's the job going? -dave

[2001-06-13 13:59:00] - travis: when were you planning on doing these things? -dave

[2001-06-13 13:58:00] - yes, we've seen two tapes of smj - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:58:00] - travis: did you put the next anime fest on Aparna's calendar? - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:57:00] - vinnie: i think so -dave

[2001-06-13 13:57:00] - travis: too bad. your fault for going so far ahead - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:57:00] - dave: the escaflowne watching, even though it's rewatching for everybody besides aparna - travis

[2001-06-13 13:57:00] - travis: oh, escaflowne. let me know when you're watching it and i'll see if i can come -dave

[2001-06-13 13:57:00] - anime fest has only shown 2 tapes of SMJ, right? - travis

[2001-06-13 13:56:00] - travis: correct. what was the other one? -dave

[2001-06-13 13:56:00] - vinnie: aww, i only get to see two new tapes of it - travis

[2001-06-13 13:56:00] - dave: which one, the SMJ anime fest plan, i'm guessing - travis

[2001-06-13 13:56:00] - jdb: i don't think he was planning on going this summer. he's gotta work in the summer to get money -dave

[2001-06-13 13:55:00] - travis: yeah, way to ruin a good conversation. i would be interested in seeing the rest of escaflowne. perhaps this weekend? - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:55:00] - travis: i'd be up for that -dave

[2001-06-13 13:55:00] - travis: smj sounds good to me, i wouldn't go farther than four tapes (13 eps) in one day though - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:54:00] - and on another anime note (like how i'm completely ignoring whatever it is you guys are talking about? ), does anyone else wanna watch the rest of escaflowne with me and aparna, i got the rest of the DVDs - travis

[2001-06-13 13:54:00] - dewey: i think they already have tax breaks for making hybrid cars. that's why they did it, hehe -dave

[2001-06-13 13:54:00] - travis: It took me a few minutes to think of such a fitting phrase -paul

[2001-06-13 13:54:00] - a: isn't it a little late to be purchasing international tickets for a summer trip? -jdb

[2001-06-13 13:54:00] - dave: i think the oil companies will have to bend to let their oil be converted to hydrogen. otherwise, i think they might get passed by alternative hydrogen sources - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:54:00] - anyway, just to get a feeling for what people want for a july anime fest, how many people would like to watch most of the rest of saber marionette j, if not all of it? - travis

[2001-06-13 13:52:00] - but they're really small -dave

[2001-06-13 13:52:00] - paul: hehe, i like that, anime nobility - travis

[2001-06-13 13:51:00] - I think that there should be tax breaks/incentives towards purchasing electric cars- there is a tax break for having solar power on your house... - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:50:00] - dave: Yeah, but the car companies are losing a lot of money by selling them that cheap -paul

[2001-06-13 13:49:00] - aaron: it won't refresh if you are typing.  That is what the onfocus java is for. - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:47:00] - vinnie: true, GM is seen as a leader of the industry. - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:47:00] - paul: the hybrid cars out now aren't too bad. they run around 20K -dave

[2001-06-13 13:47:00] - Autorefreshing could be annoying if the text field resets on every refresh, which I think it would... Right? - aaron

[2001-06-13 13:46:00] - and if cars did run on hydrogen, would it end up being cheaper than the cars which run on gasoline now? -dave

[2001-06-13 13:45:00] - vinnie: That's true, the more car companies that get involved in making hybrid cars, the more variety we'll have and the cheaper they should be -paul

[2001-06-13 13:45:00] - i wonder if the oil companies would really bend to letting their gas be converted to hydrogen. i mean, they have to foresee gas being totally done away with if they take that step -dave

[2001-06-13 13:43:00] - mig: i think the government would have to step in for that to happen -dave

[2001-06-13 13:43:00] - mig

[2001-06-13 13:43:00] - takes care of 2 birds with one stone - mig

[2001-06-13 13:43:00] - what would you do with all the byproducts? -dave

[2001-06-13 13:43:00] - you know what would be a really good ad campaign:  turn in your old car and get x% off on a hybrid. - mig

[2001-06-13 13:43:00] - it'd be kinda funny to still fill up on gasoline, but then have it converted to hydrogen -dave

[2001-06-13 13:42:00] - vinnie: it said methanol was more toxic than gasoline... -dave

[2001-06-13 13:38:00] - plus, this talks about alternative fuels like methanol - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:37:00] - paul: i meant gm jumping on board. hopefully this will give it more publicity and tech will get better - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:35:00] - vinnie: Toyota and Honda already have hybrid cars out, although they are hard to get ahold of -paul

[2001-06-13 13:33:00] - dewey: Nope, I think it's going to be too hard to get everybody together anytime soon to see it -paul

[2001-06-13 13:32:00] - hehe.  that was way off.  ~a

[2001-06-13 13:32:00] - ###/pics/download/26.gif ere is how you do capital letters.  ~a

[2001-06-13 13:31:00] - i think the more correct sentiment is that it's about fucking time. - mig

[2001-06-13 13:29:00] - http://www.msnbc.com/news/586532.asp finally! - vinnie

[2001-06-13 13:28:00] - dewey: I think the button looks a lot cooler in red -paul

[2001-06-13 13:28:00] - so was anything decided upon for Evolution? - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:27:00] - mig: You should know by now, America is far from free... -paul

[2001-06-13 13:25:00] - paul:  aye but we live in america, which is supposed to be free of such facist ideas like censorship. - mig

[2001-06-13 13:23:00] - paul: boo!  it is red again. - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:21:00] - mig and dave: It doesn't have my stamp of approval, but I will accept it -paul

[2001-06-13 13:20:00] - mig: That is the nature of censorship, getting rid of stuff that you don't like -paul

[2001-06-13 13:19:00] - heh, I didn't know vinnie drinks = http://aporter.dhs.org/pics/aaron/kingsdominion/Vinnie%20drinks%20at%20silver%20diner.jpg - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:19:00] - paul:  autorefresh. - mig

[2001-06-13 13:18:00] - dave: What has my stamp of approval? -paul

[2001-06-13 13:17:00] - a: have you also considered making links pop-up in a new window?  that way the message board stays viewable when I click a link to read. - dewey

[2001-06-13 13:16:00] - i could plese all by making it an option.  and i think identification method (cookie, ip, sign name (range of ips), or just id number) could be an option too.  ~a

[2001-06-13 13:14:00] - paul:  seems now all these days it's simply enough to say you dislike the song being played. - mig

[2001-06-13 13:13:00] - paul: it has your stampe of approval eh? -dave

[2001-06-13 13:11:00] - a: It doesn't matter much to me, I was just curious whether it was a security issue or something, and you can have auto-refresh if you want, I will accept the majority decision -paul

[2001-06-13 13:11:00] - mig: let's get Smooth Jazz fined, and hey, how about WMZQ? - dewey
