From my point of view of being against the takeover of
the United
States by corporate interests, this is almost
laughable. The well-heeled
corporate interests at LightSquared are lobbying to
push their theory
that their snatch of bandwidth isn't going to do any
harm to existing
services because, well, because they say so.
On the other hand, we have reports that:
Government tests showed that "LightSquared signals
caused harmful
interference to the majority of?general purpose GPS
receivers," said
Anthony Russo, director of the National Coordination
Office for
Spaced-Based Positioning, Navigation and Timing, a
government and
industry advisory board, in a statement late Wednesday.
How will it end? The usual way: another corporate
takeover of an area
that should be tightly regulated to protect the
public's interest. And
we'll all probably have to subscribe for payment to
some future
commercial GPS service.
Corporatism uber alles.
WELL THEN, DON'T JUST SIT THERE, DO SOMETHING...
As much **** as I am sure to take I have to admit, I am
addicted to my
GPS. It's on all the time, always pointed where I am
going (over 5 miles
or so) even if I go there every day like the track or the
stables.. I
like the clock, the speedometer, and just not spacing by
a turn. Of
course I do end up going a lot of places that are new to
me during the
year too traveling around from track to track... So, I
need my GPS!
At night I like watching the little car image follow the
pink ribbon
of a road....- Hide quoted text -

You can be tricked by the gadgets.
In August I had the wife, mom, two sisters and the dog in
the RAV4
sightseeing in rural Cape Breton. (was also pulling my new
Mission
aluminum utility trailer with all our luggage and mom's
wheelchair
inside)
Rather than use street signs, I asked the garmin to take me
to a
particular town on the Bras d'Or Lakes.
The road got smaller... turned to gravel and then got
narrower and
narrower.
We ended up in some farm's front yard on a dead end.
Retraced our
steps and followed the highway signs from then on.
Five women and a dog in the RAV4? Aside from the stench, did
you ladies
enjoy the trip?

Enjoy this, GirlieBoy!
Let's see. Suckling Don goes on a trip with five women and a
dog, in a
RAV4.... and he calls someone else a "girlieboy"????- Hide

So... you usually travel with your 'boyfriends'??
So you have no friends. You have your mommy, wife, and two
sisters.
That's what you were projecting, right?

Well, there's not very many *men* that would hang around such a
cowardly
**** as Suckling Don!- Hide quoted text -

Especially sissy, cowardly 'men' like you& your ilk.
Hanging around guys like me could be hazardous to your health!

I know, you're probably disease riddled from living in that filthy
house, Suckling Don.- Hide quoted text -

Well, you had a chance to find out but slithered away to hide under
your bed.

Bull****, I was there, you never showed up, you sniveling coward.-

So... you told me you weren't going and now claim to have travelled
there... when it was safe?
That sounds like the type of retarded, cowardly stunt you might pull..
IF.. you had the gas money to travel and your mommy let you stay out
overnight.


Retarded, cowardly...yep...that's our little rec.boats twerpie...iloogy.
Wonder if he stopped off at iSnotty's...

:)


You and Donny seem to be fighting over the "Dummy of The Day" award. If
I were the judge, I'd have a hard time picking the winner.


My kid tells me this "iscotty" thing is a reference to a pre-teen girl
on the disney channel that lot's of older perverts like Harry seem to
attract to. Gross, ****ing old pedophile has a lot of balls...
