Many of you probably heard of Hans Bakker, a rising open software star, whose life was prematurely finished because of driving in the deadly right lane. After dropping off Richard Stallman, at the end of the open software conference in Europe last year (Stallman gave a talk about...

Like those blood & guts ones you saw in HS. I think they impacted everyone - for a few days. Then most went back to their speeding and drunk driving and consequent murdering of innocent people. But if people saw this sort of thing everyday it might do a lot of good. And i don't care if it does...

....Just do as I say, don't do as I do..." --Phil Collins Just thought I'd share a couple of little items of police hypocrisy with the newsgroup today: From the News-Daily of Clayton County, GA, (http://tinyurl.com/4gzvo), apparently there are two sets of laws in Clayton County: one that you and...

I love r.a.d! You guys are so funny (because you are dumb). Reading this NG is better than watching J. Leno! -- Nate Nagel thinks "ad hominem" means incorrect, while college graduate "Paul" wants to vote independant (sic) next time.

There seems to be a lot of talk in this newsgroup about how it's immoral to stay in the left lane. Well, guess what, I do just that. I'll explain my reasons for doing it in what follows. If I don't have to exit for another 5-10 miles and the freeway is divided, I tend to get into the left lane and...

Once again today I encounter an LLB near the 41/I94 split. Those wanting to remain on I94 need to exit to the right. I come up on this LLB and signal with my left turn signal asking him to move over. I then signal a flash-to-pass. He doesn't move over, nor does he begin passing. I start to go...

Thinking deep philosophical thoughts while doing 80. Maybe he's a better driver? (g,d,&r) IME the real thing choking that road is the ongoing construction. Yesterday they were repairing a guard rail following an accident, so it was narrowed to one lane for maybe 100 yards, so that...

hungover, with severe chest pain and a fever, anything to worry about ?

There are certain exits that are routinely congested during peak hours. One situation that I encounter daily is the exit to I-10 from southbound I-405 in West Los Angeles. The 5-lanes of southbound I-405 split so that 4 lanes go straight and 2 lanes go to I-10. Traffic in the #4 lane has the...

Just saw on the news footage from some guy videotaping an intersection to help his argument that it is a dangerous instersection for a court case. An 18-wheeler with a load of strawberries stalled on the track and an Amtrak train going through it - from 2 different angles. 2 minor injuries -...
