I know what "inner city" means in the U.S. and, I guess, maybe London and Paris, but what does it mean in India?

Germany became a country in 1990.

Nice job ignoring the violent crime chart.

The difference is rather subtle in this case. The effectiveness of the document would be unchanged if it said "right" instead of power.

Article I Section 8:

"The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;"

That seems pretty clear to me... As to whether te expenses to be paid for are justified is a different matter...

I would think that the transition from Articles of Confederation to the U.S. Constitution was a rather major political change that happened through democratic means without widespread protests.

And we do, which is why we quarantine dangerous infectious disease carriers, to limit their rights and freedoms, in order that they don't harm others.

Where, pray tell, are our HIV colonies located? What about the hepatitis colonies? Where is the influenza ward in the hospital? (yes, the flu is deadly dangerous)

Oh, right. What you said is pretty much make-believe except for possibly some rare esoteric infections that few people acquire.

Bad coders can write bad code in any language.

There is nothing that requires that Perl code be write-only.

I can. Several members of my family are sole proprietors of small businesses. They buy television ads.

Really, local ads are not that expensive.

"It's a limitation on corporate speech."

Yeah! Because, you know, individuals can't buy television ads.

Why bother with that when MythTV is already quite capable of skipping the commercials entirely?

If you never see the commercials, there's quite literally nothing to see (or hear) here and it's very easy to move along.

"Yes, people huff gasoline, they huff the propellant from Cheeze Whiz."

Cheeze Whiz doesn't use propellant, it comes in a jar.

You might have been thinking about Easy Cheese, which does use a propellant, but it's a bit hard to get to it the way the can is designed, as the propellant is in a separate sealed chamber from the product.

Actually, it was the VERIFY command in the ProDOS BASIC.SYS that output the copyright message when no filename was given. In ProDOS, if a filename was given, it checked that the file existed, but did nothing else.

Apple DOS 3.3 and earlier read every sector in the file and would return an I/O error if it could not be read. Not specifying a file name resulted in an error.
