Did you forget in the past 7 hours that already posted this to this thread...?
The article addresses this: Of course, if you don’t have a DVD burner (remember, this was a while back — these days you’d use a USB drive), you’d have to get one from a friend who has one, a licensed refurbisher, or…
What makes you say it's weird and different? Match.com lets you filter by ethnicity and faith...
Seems like a weird place to brag about how gifted your kids are.
Well, if it's being marketed to an English speaking audience, they will need to consider whether the name has negative connotations regardless of where it originated. American companies have to be sensitive to this when…

Ambulances do a lot more than transport patients. It's already the case that you can usually get someone to the hospital faster than waiting for an ambulance. Typically if you're using an ambulance you're going to need…

I assune you can patent part of an overall process (certainly that's the case in virtually all software patents), which could be a way to prevent others from replicating your process without explaining the whole thing,…
I didn't criticize kids for their naivete. I was pointing out that I don't think that sort of naivete is something to aspire to. If a kid breaks something because they didn't think through the foreseeable consequences,…
I don't avoid those things because of social pressure. I don't try random doorknobs because I wouldn't want people intruding on my space if I happened to leave a door unlocked by accident -- the fact that kids (and some…
