8/19    Why is Fedex called Federal Express when it has NOTHING to do with
        the Federal Government? And why is UPS United Parcel Service with
        a pseudo government official looking symbol when it has nothing to
        do with United States or the government? Shouldn't there be a law
        against private companies abusing government sounding names?
        \_ First National Bank, National City Bank, B of A, United Airline,
           NBC, ......  They are just names.  Maybe the Fed can apply for
           trademark protection.
        \_ I heard that the National Bank of Nigeria offers a very
           high interest rate.
        \_ الله أَكْ!

        trigger some sort of audit, questioning, and such? Has anyone
        done this?

           This shit makes me weep for America.
        \_ I didn't see any mention of the NRA on that page.  Did you mean "FU

2/7     This is how NRA can claim that it represents 4.5 million members.
        http://www.csua.org/u/z6r (news.yahoo.com)
        \_ Lots of local clubs (for all sorts of activities) require their
           members to join a national organization for legal and insurance
           purposes.  There's nothing sinister here.

1/10    Yet another campus shooting incident: http://www.csua.org/u/yvw
        Thank you NRA.
           \_ I would thank them; it's a tough spot to be in: defending civil
        liberties in the wake of an event that has all the sheeple begging
        the government to take them away. (Not to mention the large number of
        morons vilifying you and those others who dissent).

10/12   "Climate Solution: Pay True Cost of Fossil Fuels, NASA Scientist Says"
        http://www.csua.org/u/xyg (news.yahoo.com)
        \_ Sounds great, but it would be easier (though by no means easy)
           to end the $5bn in fossil fuel tax subsidies the US has in place.
           And that's merely a third of what we as a nation spend to
           subsidize fossil fuels.
