> I got news for you. You may not know this but two of the countries in the World that are most notorious for Product Piracy are China and Brasil. That is not a coincidence bud. That is because these countries encourage this behavior by not actively trying to root the problem out. Brasil has 1 year to show substantial improvement or they will lose trade agreements with the US. China there is really nothing that can be done because they know they are the
most powerful country in the world. The US likes to think they are but hey nobody ever said we were "introspective."

How did we go from SPAM to piracy? I'm guessing that because you
couldn't defend your original statement you felt the need to try to
sidetrack the issue. Do you seriously expect anyone to take anything you
present as a fact seriously after your last rant was so easily proven to
be totally without any basis in reality?
 
> Now getting back to the spamming issue. These countries do nothing about their spamming servers be it ISP or not.

What in the world are you talking about? This makes absolutely no sense
what so ever. You said that kicking China, Korea, and Brazil off of the
Internet would reduce 90% of the SPAM and you were dead wrong and can't
even admit it. Total the SPAM contribution of those 3 countries and the
good old US of A will is still responsible for nearly twice as much SPAM
as the three of them combined. So, should we kick the US off the
Internet in 2 years George?

> I can understand that some may think, ":Oh there goes George again..." Deal with it.

Deal with what? The fact that you don't make any sense at all? The fact
that you can't put a cogent argument together? The fact that when you're
proven to be clearly dead wrong you try to alter the argument into
something completely off topic?

I've got nothing against a good rant, but come on George, at least try
to get your facts in place before going off on one, and try to stay on
topic.

Scientists were excited this week at having isolated a brief sound which 
occurred immediately before the Big Bang.
Apparently, the sound was, "uh oh".
