<0> and that 9/11 would've been a very different day if concealed carry were allowed aboard commercial flights.
<1> reality: hand grenade on a plane is a straw man argument.
<2> atompngn: It very well might be
<0> but it is banned on commercial flights. And 9/11 is what we get for trusting govt for our personal security.
<2> I don't agree with the circumstances of citizens being able to carry guns at all times
<0> s/for/with/
<3> reality...I sometimes carry two concealed weapons in public
<4> db2
<4> reality ;)
<0> me too. Sometimes I carry my wife's little backup pistol as well as my main carry piece.
<0> her 2nd amendment rights are trampled upon every day.
<0> she has to go to school.
<3> if i'm gonna shoot at the range, I usually take the .40, 9mm, .44 automag, and .50 caliber
<5> i less than three my .40 S&W.
<3> well, the .44 automag is fun to shoot :)
<2> siglite: If you feel your rights are being violated, why not bring it to the courts to decide?
<5> dogbert2: no doubt. :)
<0> reality: it's been brought to the courts. The courts have sided with the idiots that trust the government with thier personal security. Imagine that, judges trusting govt. with thier security....
<5> reality: people have been trying it for years.
<3> well, the AMT Automag V is also fun to shoot
<0> reality: and it will be brought before the courts again. Eventually.
<6> holy ****, my webpage is actually HTML 4.01 according to w3c ... thats never happened before
<2> siglite: Then like other **** in this society, you'll just have to live with it
<6> ya know, i find it funny when you run yahoo or google through w3c, and it has 400 errors
<2> That or start a petition
<0> reality: exactly. And the fact that all the money's in penis pills is something you'll just have to live with.
<2> siglite: All of the corporate money is
<2> siglite: Not the money I receive
<0> I think you said something the other night about research grants being repeatedly slashed.
<2> siglite: People are still always going to die from cancer
<2> siglite: Other people's money. Not necessarily mine
<0> where the money is, is where the research is.
<0> typically.
<2> To a certain extent.
<2> They want a human element to it.
<0> I'm saying that generally, because I'm sure you know much more than I specifically about this subject.
<0> it's all about ROI.
<2> But that doesn't mean that there aren't plenty of say herpatologists out there getting funded
<2> The overall problem in my field is lack of funds overall
<2> Lack of suitable funds to train people, lack of funds for new research grants, continuing grant schedule has changed, and the focus on bioterrorism
<2> Focus on bioterrorism is just another way of saying, "Give more money to defense"
<2> Which the majority of the scientific community finds as bunk
<2> It's pointless to fund things like ricin research
<2> There's not a whole lot that can be done about it once it's carried out
<7> i'm running debian linux with xfree86, kde and tightvncserver installed, I was having no problems starting desktops with kde running, now I vnc connect to the box and it just shows me a blank xserver desktop with no window manager... what the hell could have happened ?
<2> But in terms of my overall funding, sure, I took a pay cut the past couple of years. But that was what, $21,000+/- a year for the past couple of years in order to bring on more people.
<2> That's not a huge loss
<7> heh
<7> for an individual
<7> i'd say it is
<7> for a company i'd say not
<8> Aren't guns banned on airplanes because blowing out a window could take the plane down?
<0> NDPTAL85: no
<0> NDPTAL85: that's a myth
<8> So a sudden loss of cabin pressure wouldn't bring down the plane?
<0> nope
<8> Alrighty.
<9> NDPTAL85: Guns are banned because a gun on a plane is a bad idea. Period.
<0> why's it worse of an idea than a gun anywhere else?
<2> xenreborn: You didn't setup your vnc startup script correctly
<2> What's in it?
<2> If you're not calling a window manager or DE in it, then it's not configured correctly
<9> siglite: Because people can't run at 30k feet.
<0> you couldn't run in a crowded elevator either.
<0> and you can't outrun a ****ing bullet anywhere
<0> so that's kinda silly
<9> siglite: You're being silly.
<0> Falchion: if plan A is to try and outrun a bullet, I'd start working on plan B. Call me silly if you like.
<9> siglite: That's not the point and you know it.
<0> it's an invalid point.
<9> You can't outrun a bullet but you don't have to stand still.
<0> there are thousands of situations in every day life where running isn't an option.
<9> siglite: No it's not. A gun on a plane is a bad idea. If you can't see that then you must have worn a helmet to school.
<9> siglite: But you can't control most of them. You CAN control bringing a gun onto a plane.
<0> I don't see it. And you can go **** yourself in the *** with a cactus.
<2> Ouch
<9> siglite: You don't need to. You're still wrong whether you can see it or not :P
<0> Falchion: you're wrong. Whether you can see it or not.
<0> an aircraft is no different than dozens of other public situations.
<9> siglite: Nope. I'm not, you are, plain and simple.
<9> siglite: Whatever.
<0> if you think you can escape a crowded restaurant before I shoot you, you're deluded.
<0> I'll be glad to prove it if you're willing to sign a waiver. Any time.
<10> NDPTAL85: I think a sudden loss of cabin pressure will cause altitude sickness and ultimately hypoxia, doesn't necessarily will bring down the aircraft but it will kill some if not most p***engers.
<9> siglite: You're being a putz AND you're still wrong. Keep talking if you want but I won't be listening.
<0> lol
<0> so, I take it that means you can't refute my point?
<0> and are unwilling to sign the waiver?
<0> hahah
<2> The waiver thing doesn't hold up in court, by the way
<2> Still can't kill them even if they sign a waiver
<2> Or shoot them
<0> it probably wouldn't. But he wouldn't sign it anyway, because he'd be on the floor shot before he got two steps.
<0> he's just mad because his argument doesn't hold water
<4> re sig ;)
<0> re
<4> siglite: how goes?
<0> goes ok
<11> w00t
<2> This is retarded. For a new fellowship, I'm required to take a biostatistics course
<4> siglite: excellent. how's the connectivity?
<4> Jeremy
<0> functional
<4> siglite: super
<2> Even though I've had 3 biostatistics courses already
<11> hey keith, eric
<0> hey
<4> jlgaddis: how's the bike?
<11> same as it was
<11> i posted a couple pictures, but you can't really tell much. and i haven't gotten a pic of the side i laid it down on
<0> so go take one
<11> i haven't even stood it back up
<0> so go stand it back up and take a picture
<11> they dumped it off the flatbed wrecker at the end of my driveway and that's still where it's at
<0> will it roll?
<11> i think the insurance people are coming tomorrow so i'm not gonna touch it until they get here
<0> ah
<11> i doubt it, forks are kinda ****ed
<11> http://www.jeremygaddis.com/, two pics are at the top
<11> you can see the front end somewhat
<11> what pisses me off is i just spent $400 last friday to have new tires put on
<12> siglite: moop.
<11> well, one other thing that pisses me off
<0> wow
<0> the forkes are ****ed.
<13> jlgaddis, take a riding course before you ride again
<0> your front tire's in your exhaust.
<11> lechat: excuse me?
<12> jlgaddis: jesus h christ dude.
<12> jlgaddis: you alright?
<11> lechat: do you happen to know the details of what happened?
<11> kosmo: yeah
<14> what does the h stand for?
<14> his middle name? is it herbert?
<13> No; but a riding course will reduce the chance on any type of future incudent
<0> what h?
<12> siglite: the H in Jesus H Christ on a Popsicle Stick.
<0> ohhhhhhhhh
<0> kanodogg: harry.
<12> jlgaddis: glad to hear youre ok
<11> lechat: i think i did the best thing i could've given the circumstances. since you don't know the circumstances, how about you either 1) read further down and learn them, and/or 2) shut the hell up?
<12> jlgaddis: actually, lechat is not a moron, but he obviously doesnt know you... fyi and all.
<11> kosmo: and he doesn't know the details of my crash, so he should find them out before he tells me i need to take a riding course
<0> jlgaddis: it's not bad advice. Poorly timed, but it's good advice anyway.
<12> jlgaddis: *nods* thats true too... he is a very seasoned rider though.
<13> I tell every one that, especially those who never have had one
<11> perhaps instead he should tell the 16 yr old kid with a <1 day old car not to pull out in front of people
