I messed up on my last comment. The scenario I gave would be a draw. What I meant to say (or, type actually) was this: If two judges say fighter A won and one judge calls it a draw, then this is a majority decision.

The number of mistakes listed just dropped from 9 to 8. Never seen that happen before.

Split decision is where two judges say fighter A won and one judge says fighter B won. Majority decision is where one judge says fighter A won, one judge says fighter B won, and the third judge calls it a draw. I'm not trying to be a stickler, but there is a difference.

What if someone wins by majority decision (as opposed to split decision) or KO (as opposed to TKO)?

This question has been a money trap for me.

fingers_of_fury said:"Another unlikely (but possible) scenario could be that Caylee was kidnapped by someone Casey owed money too, which would obviously settle as NO."

When this story first broke, this is what I thought likely happened, because of the many comments by her own mother that Casey might know where her daughter is but couldn't reveal it for some reason. Now I think the mom most likely killed her.

I have a feeling it'll turn out that they're art students.

There are also videos of him acting like an ass on the set of I Heart Huckabees.

"If everyone knew how good FireFox is they would stop using Internet Explorer unless they had to." I agree.

Um, okay, I'm gonna go ahead and ask. If the question is "will they release it by 7/15/2008", then why is the settlement date 7/15/2009, a full year later?

"Under the DMCA, YouTube is not required to verify the entity making a request is actually the copyright holder and this seems to be just another example of DMCA abuse."

I've experienced this firsthand. I had a video up that was taken down, because someone claimed copyright ownership, and I'm positive they did not hold the copyright.

Do you mean domestic or worldwide? This matters.

The answer is no. That's all I have to say.

Um, why is the settlement date 2010?

Oh yeah, and I forgot starvation. That'll kill off quite a few people.

A few things. First: "Will humans die out due to the supervirus?". If by "die" out" you mean become extinct as a direct cause of a virus, then the answer is no. We humans have survived many a plague throughout our history. If, however, you mean "will humans become extinct due to both direct and indirect causes" (indirect causes being violence and riots due to food and water shortages, a rise in murder and suicide rates, people dying in fires because there are no firemen to rescue them, people dying of appendicitis because there were no doctors available to operate, etc.), then I'd say the chance is a bit higher, but still highly improbable. It's possible that our way of life would be severely altered for an indefinite period of time, however. During a pandemic cities would become ghost towns, public gatherings would likely be banned, and there might be forced quarantines of individuals and even entire communities. Would all life end? No, not likely. Would life still be worth living? That's debatable. Second: lou_the_stew said: "...they all lived, ate and slept in close quarters with the animals. I dont know about you guys but i dont share a bed with cattle and pultry." This may be true, but the problem is this: the virus is mutating, and if it makes the right series of mutations (or wrong series of mutations would be more appropriate) it could become as easily transmissible as the common flu, and it would spread from person to person instead of from animal to person. Third: Yes, "global pandemic" is redundant. Final thoughts: Many people who have studied the avian flu have basically said that it's not a matter of "if" but "when". I sincerely hope they're wrong. We're talking about a virus that currently has a mortality rate of over 50%. Compare this to the "Great Flu" of 1918, which had a mortality rate of between 2.5 and 5%. I personally feel wagering on this is pointless, since in the event of a pandemic Internet service would likely be down, and by the time service returned those who wagered could be among the dead. p.s. No wonder people say I'm morbid.

I think this is a good question, by I have one reservation. Why no end date? It'd be simple to figure out on which date the strike would have gone on longer and make that the end date.
