Alright, well I'm gonna call this discussion quits before Aqizzar sends his angry dog after us again. Yes, this topic started when someone posted a proposed tax reform, but it's kinda veered off course.

To the first, Siri: Library. Liiiiibrary. Doesn't even need internet access though, just a calculator able to run the formula. Chain the bloody thing to the wall if it's that bad in the area or just produce some calculators strictly able to do the formula.

But yeah, we sorta' do offer free (albeit limited) internet service to pretty much every American. Just sayin'.

Far fewer than "pretty much every American" has at-all-consistent access to the Internet, or even to a functional public library. They don't all necessarily have the time or opportunity.

S'why I noted the 'albeit limited' part and said nothing about consistent. I'm very much aware of the difficulties involved, yes. For the limited use noted, it's doable (if certainly not easy, for some) in most cases.

But yeah, as with a number of public services a lot of libraries could use some shoring up. Poor things don't get nearly as much appreciation as they deserve :-\

What I want I want to know is, why is Hydra still campaigning against Dagon when they could simply join on the same ticket with Dagon as president for the general election? Would they not better serve the will of Cthulhu that way?


Allow me to get the thread back on track with a question, what happens to a candidate's delegates after they drop out of the race? Do they simply drop out and not cast a vote for another candidate or what?

Hydra disagrees with Dagon about female reproductive rights. Dagon believes they have the right to make babies for him to eat.

Dogar/Kazon? That's the ticket I want.

Also, how do people add those dotted lines under their popups? I'm beginning to suspect no one ever looks at them in my posts.

Republican. Democrats have secretaries, not pages.

You mean the [abbr] tag text? It's dotted now, if you're wondering. Some computers don't seem to be able to see them, and I can't see they're there on my phone either (so possibly tablets and the like can't either?). I've only seen [acronym] tags before though. I'm not sure what the difference is.
