“The consistent anarchist…should be a socialist, but a
socialist of a particular sort. He will not only oppose
alienated and specialized labor and look forward to the
appropriation of capital by the whole body of workers,
but he will also insist that this appropriation be
direct, not exercised by some elite force acting in the
name of the proletariat…Some sort of council communism
is the natural form of revolutionary socialism in an
industrial society. It reflects the intuitive under-
standing that democracy is largely a sham when the
industrial system is controlled by any form of autocratic
elite, whether of owners, managers, and technocrats, a
“vanguard” party, or a State bureaucracy.”

Noam Chomsky, political analyst. “Notes on Anarchism,”
New York Review of Books (May 21, 1970).

Doh! :D :lol: - Xi

reminds me of a funny story:
A friend of mine - an ER and intensive care doctor - occassionally moonlights as a family physician doing locums (i.e. filling in) for other family doc’s. One day an American woman comes in for a regional exam (basically just a run-of-the-mill medical complaint). At this time, the Canadian tariff (or fee) for a regional was around $15.85 Canadian - just around $10.00 US.
You can see it coming, can’t you . . .
He asks her for the $10.00 and she turns and asks him “are you sure you’re a real doctor?”
Since then he routinely bills Americans $100.00 - just so he looks like a legitimate physician.

Kinda said really, but coming from CC, Hahahhahah… :lol:

The 2003 will be of about the record size as it seems, and the predictions are quite reliable. So, the answer is “yes, it can fluctuate that much”.
Something that usually is used against environmentalists, as some (other) fluctuations are normal, then the effect could be “just fluctuations”. The other side of the medal is never heard (not even by environmentalists): the same fluctuations could be “favoring” us, and the real man-made effect is much worse….

I thought Wizards of the Coast did…

I looked at the smileys and they mostly suck. Any ideas where I can find good ones?

Beat ya to it! They already glow in the dark. :P It makes it easier to find them sometimes…just turn out the lights.Got some of my materials from Fernald(nuke plant closing near Cincinnati)[j/k]

It aint me, I’m the Anti-Libertarian :smile:

But I respect this person’s opinion. This board is open to political conversations.

What did the CA legislature do about this idea? :-?

I dislike rap overall (especially what they play over the radio), but underground rap is pretty good.

¡De nada! :smile:

Correct

You aperently haven’t entered a quote in you profile. ;)

In some ways, yes. But I think “Dude, How’s is hangin’” is very appealing either.
