No, I will continue to post entire articles, it is much more
convenient than having readers visit websites, possibly go through
registrations etc.

It's also much less legal and takes up much more bandwidth.

Oh cool, I was wondering when the next "copyright violation" debate thread
was due.

It makes no sense to attempt to moderate an unmoderated newsgroup on usenet.

Of course, you can point how why it might be a good idea to do as you
suggest.

LOL


It's also illogical to use logic when trying to reason with people who have
little reasoning power.

Eighty-five percent of snacks and 75 percent of drinks sold in vending
machines in middle and high schools are junk food, a study released
Tuesday by the Center for Science in the Public Interest found.

This has been the case for as long a I can remember. Although we didn't
have machines until high school, which was loaded with junk, there was a
little candy store we all stopped at right across the street in Elementary
and Middle. IMHO, the only reason this is even talked about is because kids
are fatter now than they were a few decades ago. Why are they fatter
really? IMHO, it is because of technology. Kids all have those stupid
computer games and play them instead of riding bikes and playing football or
whatever. The streets and ball fields are not nearly as filled with kids as
when I was one. I am very glad I am not growing up in this current
generation of kids. They get stimulated on computer games and really don't
play with each other like when I was one. It is too bad, but I guess it is
called progress. They sure were good times back then. All I did was play
basketball, ride bikes, football, flashlight tag and a host of other
physical activities.

It's also theft of intellectual properity, dumbass.



Properity?

What are your thoughts on pot, kettle, black, Mr. Intellectual?

I am curious, did you take a bus to school or did you walk?

I walked. What is funny is I can truly say I walked a mile to school. Down
hill on the way there and back up on the way home. My parents didn't
believe in giving me a ride. I liked to walk back then and still do. It is
one of my favorite things. Very relaxing.

True, but then we'll always have our net-nannies. There are copyright
issues, I suppose. However, for people like me who don't have a lot of time
to devote to this ng, it is a constant disappointment to try to access a
linked article, only to find it's no longer valid, or that they want some
kind of registration etc. So personally I appreciate it when I see the whole
article posted. Even on dial-up the download is a lot faster than any of the
news websites, especially the ones that subject you to multiple popups.

What bugs me, though, is when people leave the whole article in, with no
snippage at all, and make their comment, usually top-posted. LOL.
