4/6     My take on motd censorship: techie stuff gets posted at all hours.
        politics gets posted mostly m-f, 8-6.  Given the quantity and number
        of participants, this says to me techie stuff is a general but
        secondary interest to a variety of people while politics is mostly
        of interest only to the working/alum population.  Does this make
        sense to the rest of you?
        \_ Not really.     -mice
           \_ thanks for adding nothing.  why bother posting?
              \_ Pot, kettle, black, shithead.
        \_ Actually, I think people are avoiding political posts in the off
           hours, when they could be easily culled or ignored.
           \_ Exactly.  Because most of the politically interested people
              aren't online after work hours.
        \_ You can't troll when no one's around.
           \_ How to trolling when asking techie FAQs when others around
                being?  Is be much thank pleasing yes if would you answer
                my question reading google for me!  tx!
                \_ don't know how to imitate, don't imitate lah.  makes
                   you look very silly.
        \_ So what?

        "I hope no one uses the term 'illegal immigrants' here today," said
        Committee Ranking Member John Conyers of Michigan. "Our citizens are
        not illeg -- the people in this country are not illegal. They are out
        of status."

10/7    In practice, how long are HIGH SCHOOL transcript kept? I'm asking
        because I'm wondering if people can dig up my shady past.
        I was a bad kid.
        \_ I would doubt that they are ever destroyed. What would you
           do about it in any case? Try not to worry too much about
           things you have no control over.

11/2    California Uber Alles is such a great song
        \_ Yes, and it was written about Jerry Brown. I was thinking this
           as I cast my vote for Meg Whitman. I am independent, but I
           typically vote Democrat (e.g., I voted for Boxer). However, I
           can't believe we elected this retread.
           \_ You voted for the billionaire that ran HP into the ground

        http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/30/us/politics/30orange.html
        \_ and the state is slowly turning conservative. Meg 2010!
           \_ We will see. Seems unlikely.
        \_ Yeah, because CA sure has a problem with not enough dems in power!
           If only dems had been running the state for the last 40 years!

3/29    I'm curious what you think of the health care reform bill. I voted
        for Obama and I really hate it. It doesn't really address the
        problem, which is health care _costs_. This bill seems like a
        shell game.
        \_ I agree it doesn't address the root cause, but it's a start. The
           good news is that we have our third major entitlement (SS, Medicare,
