I saw that article yesterday too. Trying to study the 'net is probably like building the "latest and greatest." Every time you think you have all the hardware ready, something new comes along and say you yourself, "Gee, I'll just wait a few more months until that comes out..."

And to everyone who told me in my other thread that our tax money is going to a good cause, I say "HA!".
If my taxes were just going to better streets, and to the cops, and other things that I need, then we'd probably be paying a small fraction in taxes of what we are now. |

Now watch... they will do a study to find out why it took 7 years and the study will cost the tax payers another few million.
At least you guys know what your money is being wasted on. Canada has $2 billion dissapear and nobody knows where it went!!!!

$1 milllion is small potatoes. That's 0.00005% of the federal budget. That's like buying a house for $100,000 and having a nickel go to waste.

It can still have gone to something I can appreciate. I dont give a darn how many web sites there are, especially scince in 6 months that number will be no where near accurate.
