About the "internet" in 1981. Watch it. Then lawl at the papers who tried this as an experiment thinking they'd not lose money. Then realize that papers are hemorrhaging these past few years :)

To keep P&N a discussion forum and reduce the amount of inflamatory troll posts, please post more than simple links or complete quotes of articles that can be found by anyone. If you believe something is important enough to post, you must have some opinion of your own about the content of the article or link.

We understand this cannot be a hard and fast rule. It is possible to state an opinion in the Title or Topic Summary of your post, but unless an article is of sufficiently earth shaking importance, simply posting the title or headline of an article would probably not be sufficient.

We will try our best to be fair and understanding when deciding whether to lock a thread for this reason. Please help us maintain a high level of discussions on this forum.

Thank you,

Just quoting stuff because I like to quote.

$5/hr, 2 hrs to receive the whole paper. :Q

Figuring 300 bps, that's 135 KB per hour (crazy :Q ). I just loaded up the NY Times homepage, and it loaded 765 KB worth of files. :Q Most of that was .css and .js files though.
