I talked it over with legal counsel. It seems we CAN get away with just saying "You can't register if you're under 13"... Goddamn COPPA. May whoever proposed the rotten legislation ROT IN HELL FOR ALL OF ETERNITY!Anyway, you can register now. ------------------ "You shot him! You shot him dead!!"

He tells me this AFTER I write the personality file. *KICK*. Of course there's a whole other story behind the damn ubb, it's kind of like unstable chemical materials. Falls apart at the slightest nudge.

I'm tempted to bring up a Dune reference, but I can't quite think of any. I'm going to have to research this law thing, though. It's sounded weird to me from the beginning. ------------------ "While it is true that 15% of home accidents are caused by large penis related incidents, only a small number have ever been known to be fatal." **** Read chapter one of "Dirk Tungsten in...The Disappearing Planet"!

Um... It's just "darn tootin'", w/o the "right". And, no, we don't say that. :-)------------------ "This is Major Tom to ground control. I'm stepping through the door, and I'm floating in a most peculiar way. And the stars look very different today..." -David Bowie, "Space Oddity"

Yes, well, Yosemite Sam also says "Great horny-toads!" Don't expect to hear many Americans saying that, either. Um... Except maybe in jest... :-)------------------ "This is Major Tom to ground control. I'm stepping through the door, and I'm floating in a most peculiar way.

Uh, Yosemite Sam is Southern. He's a Dixie Man with a Union name. "Yanks" refer to Northerners.------------------ 7 alarm clock: "Do not touch me." Dilbert: "Then how do I turn you off?" 7: "Believe me, I am plenty turned off."

As someone who lives in the south (South Carolina), no, no one says that. Unless they're drunk...really drunk.Actually I always figured Yosemite Sam was from the mid-west. Kind of like a munchin trigger-happy cowboy. Foghorn Leghorn on the other hand is definately from the south though. ------------------ "If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you."

brnoe: Um... Actually, I'm not too familiar w/ his stuff, other than "Space Oddity". :-)As for "Yank", I was under the impression that foreigners used it to refer to anyone from the US... Foghorn Leghorn is from the "Deep South". Yosemite Sam is more of a "Wild West" type... ------------------ "This is Major Tom to ground control.

*SHOCK HORROR*. What you mean that you people don't actually speak like that? You've just obliterated my entire belief system. Destroyed the cornerstone of my existance. I'll have to retire to a himilayan monastery and ponder this at length to come to terms with it.------------------ "Remeber, if there is a nuclear explosion, be sure to close your windows as the massive heat could cause objects within your home to catch fire".
