    Thanks for the clarification No problem. And thanks for the intentional misunderstanding! First Class Citizen Twice Over

    According to many christians, as long as he says "I'm sorry" at the last possible second, he'll be fine. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Yes. Have you ever looked at a real scientific journal? I don't mean Scientific American or OMNI but a real research publication? First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I've previously bashed my head against the wall of trying to explain things you didn't want to understand. I think I'll swallow tacks instead. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    What rationale for "accepting the OP's linked bullshit" are you talking about? Ah! Now you put the Proctor's hat back on. Excellent -- except it doesn't fit very well. Maybe you can get it resized at the costume shop you bought it from. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I'm going to answer your question but watch out. There's a nuance in the answer: * I was getting worked up because Bill, who's usually quite sharp, was misunderstanding me. I didn't like that. * I am not worked up but I WOULD get worked up IF the police DID harass citizens on public streets for violating spurious NFL laws. I doubt that would happen, but if it does, I would celebrate a class action suit. Got it? First Class Citizen Twice Over

    WITHIN PRIVATE PROPERTY, Bill! The NFL doesn't have the right to create temporary laws that dictate what kind or amount of clothing will be worn within 1 mile of the stadium. Indeed the cops won't care -- but not simply because the cops are easy going about NFL laws, but because NFL laws DON'T EXIST. Because of previously existing laws -- NOT because the NFL invented temporary NFL laws. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    For such a high-standards quality control proctor, your rationale for accepting the OP's linked bullshit seems exceptionally low brow. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I sure can imagine how our usual quality control proctors, Dorbie, mnealtx, and ncclimber would be SCREAMING if someone posted such trash in justification of a position they didn't favor. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    That's likely under authority of the city engineering department. Businesses can contract with the city to change road and sidewalk rights of way, street parking, and other administrative policies. The city owns the streets and sidewalks and doesn't guarantee free passage. It's within its rights to change them at will. However, a private corporation decreeing that an area of the city is alcohol-free or barbeque-free contravenes actual laws and individual rights. This is more akin to a corporation telling police that for the duration of the game, everyone will be required to wear game-specific clothing. And it's only different by scale from a corporation declaring anti-rape laws temporarily null and void. I'd be thrilled to be lead plaintiff in this class action suit! First Class Citizen Twice Over

    You mean you think the NFL is big enough to order public police to harass individuals under private orders from a corporation? That's a major scandal if it's true. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    No, I did not mist the North Carolina Part. What does being a climber have to do with any of this? You people are going crazy. "Climber" is in the guy's username for god's sakes! Right next to the "NC" part. Get it? "NC CLIMBER". He's a "Climber in NC". The two go together. Sheesh! Reasonable criticisms are great, but this is just schoolyard bullying. Get off the taunting already. It's pointless, misdirected, and embarassing. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I'm extremely curious to know what the results would be of a verification campaign... emailing 100 randomly chosen from this list with the question, "Did you knowingly sign this petition?" I'm just curious... First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I want to dring with you. How about adding a 1985 Chateau Lynche Bages Bordeaux. Grey Goose dry martini served up with a twist. A nice aged armegnac. I'm all for it, but I'm a gin martini guy, traditional, with a twist. You should see our collection: 50 malts, 20 brandies, and something like 400 bottles of wine. ... oh, and of course a normal selection of the daily stuff. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    This has got to be a parody. NFL doesn't have the power to declare three square miles alcohol-free. It's not their property! Edited for math error. Oops. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    It's that time of year again: the end of the pomegranate season when the entire Vancouver area's groceries send their cases of unsold pomegranates to our local chinese produce outlet for pennies. So in the last two days I've bought -- and juiced -- 40 pomegranatees. I have about a gallon of garnet juice in the fridge and about a quart inside me. Before the end of the weekend I plan to juice another 60 fruits, have several quart bags of frozen juice in the freezer, a small container of pomegranate syrup for persian cooking, and a bottle of real homemade grenadine for cocktails. I love chinatown sometimes! First Class Citizen Twice Over

    I predict utter silence on this topic from rushmc now and until he resuscitates the same claims at another opportunity -- having forgotten he was wrong the first time. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    "Bitch" is a word only applied to women -- therefore I'm going to call it a sexist term. Can you put your opinion in gender-neutral language? If not, I'll call it a sexist reason. First Class Citizen Twice Over

    Some controversies are more respectable than others. If 1000 militant lettuce worshippers screamed brimstone about salad bars, I think we could discount them. First Class Citizen Twice Over
