Re: Dear Douggy
You are very idealistic. Unfortunately life is much more brutal and your country is not very anxious to persecute servicemen especially for such a petty crime as executing Iraqi civilians. FYI the main culprit is waiting for promotion. Why do you ask? It seems that they had access to the original court documents. IMHO

Re: Palm Beach, FL
The better diving is to the south, on the Boynton Reefs, and the dive boats are much better and operate quite differently: the Palm beach operations are geared to tourists, the Boynton operators are geared to locals. Starfish is closest to you, on Ocean Blvd in Lantana, and Craig runs an excellent boat. 561-212-2954, [link]

Re: Dear Douggy
With an investigation it will be determined what laws were broken and then they can be charged appropriately. I would hope for a clear and accurate accounting of what happened and the outcome of the trials. What is your military experience/training?

Re: WHO'S LIABLE IF I DO GET HIT?
Both systems are relatively similar in that their crop body series D200-D300 (20D-30D-40D-50D) can accept the full frame mount, or their own mount. On Canon, this the EF and EF-S designations. The problem is that if you buy a 'crop body' lens (eg, EF-S) and later get a full frame body, the full frame body doesn't accept that mount. As such,

Re: Dear Douggy
The problem is that "the consequences" didn't wait until investigation is completed and meant death for many coalition soldiers, too. That's not an answer.

Re: OT-Water definetly found on Mars
Right. The spelling is correct (of course it could be discussed which version is more correct - metre or meter), but the math behind it completely faulty. Converting and rounding your 747 billion feet gives only 230 billion, what in the scale gives big difference. BTW I don't have a clue how did you get the number. AFAIK Mars atmospheric

Re: I'm voting Democratic
Wrong, John. Commuting a sentence is just that. The fine and the felony conviction remain. A pardon effectively "erases" the conviction. They're rights are fully restored. A pardoned felon can vote in states that deprive convicted felons of the vote. One who's sentence has been commuted can't. I think that'd be a rather ssignificant difference.

On Thu, 28 Aug 2008 19:18:01 -0500, "Dennis \(Icarus\)" No moron. There is no substantive difference between commuting a sentence and giving a pardon.

Sorry. I saw your mention of Nikonos and the Nikon part stuck. Now I recall your Canonitis. Yeah, the D700 just came out on the Nikon end, right after the D300 obsoleted the D200. While the D300 is merely an improvement on the D200 1:1.5, the D700 is truly 1:1 with the right lenses. Of course that means replacing my lenses, but since I'm not in the market for a

I'm not sure if it is or not, but since I probably have $3K in Canon EF lenses (and a 20D dSLR body), changing brands to Nikon isn't particularly appealing. Pretty much.
