So what? What percentage of these people even know what data mining is, or understand fully the potential for abuse? from http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/phoneaboutyou.html What Must Your Telephone Company Do To Keep Your Information Confidential? The FCC requires your telephone company to keep accurate records of all instances where your customer information was disclosed or provided to third parties, and whether or not you have provided approval to use your customer information for marketing. Telephone companies must train their employees in the appropriate use of customer information. Marketing campaigns using customer information must be carefully reviewed. The FCC requires telephone companies to prepare annual compliance certificates signed by an officer of the company certifying that the company has established operating procedures that are adequate to ensure compliance with these rules. The compliance certificates must be made publicly available. What Is The FCC Doing To Keep Your Telephone Company From Disclosing Your Information? In addition to these rules, the FCC is exploring whether new or stronger rules may be necessary to protect your customer information. The FCC investigates consumer complaints about unauthorized or unlawful disclosure of customer information, and, if it finds a violation, can issue citations and propose fines. The FCC recently proposed $100,000 fines on telephone companies with inadequate certifications regarding compliance with FCC rules protecting customer information from disclosure. They are breaking the law - both the government and the phone companies. Let's enforce the RULE OF LAW here instead of granting limitless power.

Avoid sleeping for 24 hours before the flight. Then, get to your seat and crash out. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Shit, that's higher than my IAD jumps! Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Yeah. Stop being such a pussy! Sorry, couldn't resisit... Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Don't sweat it. I've been warned before when I stepped over the line. It didn't bother me though - you misspelled rectum. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Bravo. Well said. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

My life is awesome. I have a good job, I either paddle, hike, climb, or skydive every week. As far as going up the ladder goes, that's the one thing that is currently suffering. When I started my current job a few years ago, the opportunity for advancement was great. In the last couple years, it has completely dried up. Currently, no hiring, and when people retire they are not being replaced. What concerns me is the general direction this country is headed, economically and politically. Also, I don't assume that since my life is great, everyone else must be doing just as well. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Not to mention the shrinking middle class and the increasing number of working poor. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

What's wrong? You don't believe in "Up or Down votes"? You want a soft wishy-washy middle-ground? Rush Limbaugh teaches that "moderates" are just cowards who have no principles. That's not you, is it? Sounds to me like a he's "seminar poster". He is just pretending to be a conservative, but is actually a dirty, rotten tax and spend liberal. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

There's the catch. Nobody with that kind of information/knowledge is going to tell you anything. And, with no oversight, and the public kept ignorant, the possibility for abuse is huge. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Dirty girls make the world go round. I'll never call you a whore for showing off what god gave you - unless you ask me nicely. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Regardless of any poll, Bush is a fucking moron. %100 of Zipp0's polled agree with that statement. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Take the first jump course and then do IAD. That way, you are not strapped to anybody. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Then you are denying reality. Rasmussen has a better record of being correct than any of the sources you can cite. Did you know many pollsters used by the alphabet networks actually had Kerry and Gore winning? - Past performance is not proof of future accuracy.

It would be an awesome time to be in "THE CLUB" tho...... His policies are putting the USA in the most vulnerable position in our nation's history. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

China: Current account balance: $129.1 billion (2005 est.) Reserves of foreign exchange and gold: $795.1 billion (2005 est.) Debt - external: $242 billion (2005 est.) USA: Current account balance: -$829.1 billion (2005 est.) Reserves of foreign exchange and gold: $86.94 billion (2004 est.) Debt - external: $8.837 trillion (30 June 2005 est.) Yeah, Bush is doing a BANG UP job. Shitwad. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

I sold my bike years ago after almost getting killed several times in a single summer. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Sorry, but I'm just not buying it. (my best Bill O'Reily impression) Seriously though, I'd guess reality is somewhere is the middle of the polls. Either way, the numbers are not good. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Apparently, somewhere around 25% think it is a stupid poll. I don't think it is a stupid poll. Do you believe Bush when he opens his mouth or not? It's that simple. Most people think he is, in general, a lying sack of shit. So, there is hope for our country after all. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Nope, not nuff said. 40% and rising. http://www.rasmussenreports.com/Bush_Job_Approval.htm President Bush Job Approval RasmussenReports.com - You might want to reconsider bragging about those (skewed) numbers. They are nothing at all to hang your hat on. LOL Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

That has absolutely nothing to do with it. It's about the principles of freedom and limits on government power on which this country was founded. Having nothing to hide is not a basis for probable cause, which is required per the fourth ammendment. 31% Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

It's not exactly a scientific poll. It's just asking, in general, if you believe what Bush says. I mean, the people historically believed at least one politician. How else did "Honest Abe" get that nickname? And up until recently I thought Bush was an honest man. Now I truly believe he is a lying sack of shit.

And therefore you have no idea what YOU are talking about. Without first hand knowledge, you are just guessing. That is why we need congressional oversight. That is not happening currently. The congress has NO IDEA what is going on. Without checks and balances this is no longer the USA. It is RED CHINA. Like it or not - that's the reality of it. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

31% and falling fast. 'Nuff said. Zipp0 -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

LOL. They will crack blu-ray in less than a month. And there are already 20 ways around the encryption. Take the video/audio out and feed to HD VHS recorder. From there feed it to consumer HD video camera. Then firewire out to hard drive. They have been trying to stop sharing and copying of music and movies since they were invented. Give it up already!
