_popescu: thatg aside, the more pressing problem is that we don't have a proper pdf-decrufter, (random moron with delusions of self-impoirtance failed to be useful, as you prolly recall), and if we're going to do something by hand this'd be more sorely needed than that.

_popescu: during the communist time, the "repartitie" (approx, warrant) was a major instrument of social control. basically : to dwell anywhere, you had to get a job there. to get the job, you had to a) go to school and then, be ... sent to it, ie "destined", repartizat.

_popescu: the truth of the matter however is that to a large degree fain was powered by the original web delusion, "oh, lowering barriers to human creativity is what economy is all about". it's not. there's no such thing as "human creativity" in the sense of the general mass, and the barriers are there to keep us from the female wail.

_coman i expect the reason drunks aren't as bothered by puke as the normal human is that they're so used to it. so a direct link might be that the women that habitually drink aren't nearly as likely to clean it up.
