4/20    Stupid question:  Why there isn't a demand for Pope to be elected?
                                            \- There was the Protestant
                                               Reformation instead. See e.g.
                                               Luther "Thesis" #51, #79, #82,
                                               #86etc. --cardinal psb
        or, why people are content with the existing process of selecting
        leader of 1 billion catholics?
        \_ Hi, you are obviously out of touch with the whole religious
           concept... religion is not a democracy. Popemastah is chose
           basically by the big G, yo. Why ain't there a demand for the
           10 commandments to be amended?
           \_ They were.  People of Israel, I bring you these fifteen..
              ...CRASH...ten!  Ten commandments!
              \_ Mel Brooks movie?
                 \_ History of the World Part 1. I'm still waiting for
                    Part 2 w/ Jews in Space!
                    \_ I always wondered if there was a Part 2.  I would
                       have liked to see it.
        \_ Vote for wrong pope == 1 way ticket to hell. Would you risk it
           (assuming you really believed in all this heaven/hell Ebenezer
            scrooge stuff)?

            \_ To them, it is a democracy; Just like our founding
            fathers thought when they left out women and minorities.

12/28   Looking for a religiousness density map based on county. Is there
        one out there?
        \_ Try http://search.census.gov/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&affiliate=census&query=religion+by+county
           \_ Public Law 94-521 prohibits us from asking a question on religious
              affiliation on a mandatory basis; therefore, the Bureau of the Census
              is not the source for information on religion.

8/21    I'm trying to negotiate rent renewal and my manager came
        back saying she can't do that due to Fair Housing Laws
        that states that if they adjust price for one person
        they need to adjust price for everyone else. Is this
        an actual law or some bullshit she just made up?
        \_ Probably bullshit.
