  anyway, can babies really understand such complex concepts beyond things like "I want mommy" "I want food"?
  
  Actually why are we arguing about this?
  
  Lastly, nope I'm not agnostic :3

  A CLASSIC!

  Ender's Game is a CLASSIC! it's what got me started in the sci-fi genre to begin with.
  Even if books could somehow be thought of as "pornographic", I've read way way worse books from my middle-school library.
  
  Also, Ender's Game was the best, the sequels were kinda meh, and then Ender's Shadow and it's sequels were Amazing!

  Sound familiar?

  Keith Alexander:
  "The NSA doesn't yet have the capability to spy on your e-mails, but if they were to gain the capability to spy on your e-mails in the future the likelihood of the NSA spying on your e-mails will probably incr- I mean... The NSA doesn't yet have the capability to spy on your e-mails."

  Re: Re: Trolls

  I don't want to tear down the patent system, I want a patent system that works, and works efficiently. One that genuinely rewards those who innovate rather than those who seek to build fortresses and cannons out of said patents.

  Re: Re: Re: Re:

  Either way their will be
  
  1. less research done because of hindrance from patents
  
  or
  
  2. less research done because of a smaller chance to recoup
  
  That is why a happy medium must be found in order to maximize innovation.

  necessity is the mother of invention, as long as it is needed their will be those who provided resources to make it happen, at least in most cases.

  Trolls

  Ever notice how trolls never bother to comment on posts were they can't boil down their side of the argument to "but... but... Piracy is illegal and you are all entitled freeloading pirates!"

  Re: Re: Re:

  antitrust laws are their to protect the consumer, these two industries are undeniably doing something fishy that will effect consumers, therefore an anti-trust investigation is not unwarranted.
