    Cost of Iraq War

    If rises in malpractice premiums aren't linked to rises in malpractice claims, why will limiting the claims reduce the premiums?

    Cost of Iraq War

    Since when is Al Qaeda the only threat we face? Any nutso with a nuke should be viewed as a threat. And Kim is most certifiably nuts. Troglodyte is a cave dweller - from your obliviousness to fact I wonder how much daylight you see
  4. Depending on how much you trust him with $, why not give him a few specs and have him pick one up in Tokyo? More choices there than anywhere else on earth!

    I was going to mention these issues as well - thanks for bringing them up. Studies have shown rises in malpractice insurance to track the overall health of the insurance industry, not the rate of malpractice claims.

    I always knew you were a troglodyte. 7 years ago they tested a missile that flew over Japan. They are currently threatening to test a nuclear bomb with material for more. What is that but an imminent threat to Japan?
  7. No. It doesn't charge for professional users either.

    Boycott Newsweek

    Poor people the world over die in riots every day. They riot over sports games, food, politics, religion. How exactly is this one different? How is this different than US riots over sports team victories? http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/10/22/fan.death/
  9. They were all being feed the same slanted intelligence! Or have you missed that most sinister aspect of the war buildup?

    So are we free in America? Or unfree? Or is this another rightwing wonk wankfest?
  11. Invading N. Korea and Iran are still within the capabilities of our military. The bigger question is whether we'd still be able to fulfill the other duties of the military - would a further extended military still be able to protect Taiwan from China? Aid Israel? Or the bigger question of "can the US afford this large a military?" I've yet to hear a good answer from the right on those questions. As for Saddam and WMD's - the assertion that he'd be able to obtain useful WMD's in a reasonable time frame, say 5 years, is laughable at best, given our knowledge know. Hell, given the raw, unspun by the Bush administration intelligance then it's laughable. Especially if we'd concentrated our non-proliferation efforts on Pakistan, who've been selling stuff to half the world it seems.

  13. Top 10 recorded water flow! I'm heading uo tommorrow
  14. They plan to eliminate much of that when the new visitor center opens. You remember the plan whereby you would have to have a pass to walk the halls of congress?
  15. it returns
  16. Real easy to get a perscription before you leave, and make sure you get the real deal. At the same time you can get Diamox, your Malaria drug of choice, and various other drugs. Well worth your time and $.
  17. Tioga Pass isn't open yet, and won't be for a while. That'll be a LOOONNNNG drive over. Have fun!
  18. Par for the cc.com course. Buy it from REI. Try it. Post here if you like it/dislike it. If you don't, return it.
  19. There's a discussion of it on this classic thread: http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/232691/page/0/fpart/1/vc/1
  20. I used a similar battery for my Patagonia trip. 800 pictures, 2 months, 1 battery.
  21. For some people an accomplishment is getting out of bed, for others climbing all 14-8000m peaks, for some the first free nude ascent of Mont Analogue. We're all free to value and recognize whatever we want.

    The guy I saw in the supermarket last week.
  23. Tikka Plus It'd get 2, 'cept I've had problems with the lens popping off. The "pochette" solves that problem at a grossly inflated $7
  24. It's alot easier walking on snow with hobnails.
  25. "It doesn't matter - they're just brown people after all"
