China has plenty of land fill space, and I'm not sure whether or not they've signed on to the Kyoto Accords.and/or China which is only fair.![]()
Yeah, but consider this; the whole lead poisoning thing could lead to an entire generation of China men only suitable for work in politics....At least the negative effects would be less immediate in the former case.
Statistics say that there are going to be a few hundred million Chinese men too many in a decade or two, so maybe this would be a good move.captaincranky said:

For some silly reason, I thought there were already a few hundred million China men(*) too many already. Shouldn't that move the time frame to something more along the lines of next month?Statistics say that there are going to be a few hundred million Chinese men too many in a decade or two, so maybe this would be a good move.
I believe there was a discussion about the proper nomenclature in the Big Lebowski.=)For some silly reason, I thought there were already a few hundred million China men(*) too many already. Shouldn't that move the time frame to something more along the lines of next month?
(*) "China men" is sort of a mild pejorative term, so it seems to me that it would be inclusive of "China women" also. This would further reduce the time to that event.
I think "Chinamen" is one word, I let Firefox win on that.
Not sure what I'm supposed to be outraged at.. Apple products have an unusually high resale value, maybe this is a result of fewer people being able to afford their 'high end' products? In any case, I don't think that has much to do with this news story.@SNGX1275... I eagerly anticipate being told I am wrong about this, do your worst.
As the last post on this thread, (before yours), was in August of 2011, I take it that's been building up for a while. Feel better now?So their "fair" (and I emphasize 'fair' since it's a fracking JOKE) market value for an upgraded 1.8GHz G4 Digital Audio with 1.5GB ram, two Sata 1.5TB Seagate Barracuda hard drives (and PCI SATA card), an ATI 9800 Pro, USB 2.0 card and 16x/40x DVD-RW drive is *ZERO* (as in not even $1) dollars according to Apple. What a FRACKING JOKE. The fracking hard drives alone are worth at least $30 each and they won't even offer a "joke" of a $10 gift card for the thing after buying a brand new computer from them (I.e. they asked me to trade it in an e-mail that only came from buying a new machine). They don't even ask for details. They're 100% WORTHLESS, yet on e-Bay it'd go for at least $200 with those upgrades. It comes with OS9, Tiger and Leopard for goodness sake. It can run everything made in the past decade (no new Apple product can say that). FRAK APPLE. May they burn in HELL for all eternity for being CHEAP *** GREEDMONGERS, all $100 BILLION in petty cash of them that can't afford a lousy worthless $10 gift certificate. FRACK'EM. As Douglas Adams would have said, they'll be the first up against the wall when the revolution comes.
