New Device Allows Recording at Concerts

"Oh, how far we've come from the 78, the 45, even the CD. Now, minutes after your favorite band sounds its last note on stage, you can load a live recording of the concert onto a cigarette-lighter-sized hard drive hanging off your keychain." -AP

Cracky Moore

Not much to say about this one, let him hang himself....

"Americans who supported the war deserve to see their sons and daughters die in it."

http://www.nypost.com/seven/04252004/gossip/19578.htm

DERANGED documentarian Michael Moore likens the cowards who murder U.S soldiers in Iraq to the colonists who fought in the American Revolution. "The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not 'insurgents' or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy,' " he writes on his Web site. "They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow - and they will win. Get it, Mr. [George W.] Bush?" The flabby filmmaker goes on to say that the UN should stay out of Iraq because Americans who supported the war deserve to see their sons and daughters die in it. "Why should the other countries of this world, countries who tried to talk us out of this folly, now have to clean up our mess? . . . I'm sorry, but the majority of Americans supported this war once it began and, sadly, that majority must now sac rifice their children until enough blood has been let that maybe - just maybe - God and the Iraqi people will forgive us in the end."

EOL

I hate when companies EOL a perfectly good and stable product for something inferior due to "contract restrictions" they just signed with someone else. You end up getting stuck w/ alpha-rate products and the end consumer gets to be the tester. friggin BS.
