2. dont let them die in vain.....download Angry Birds for iphone and ipad now
I'm sick of blaming the end users. Why not blame those responsible, the CEO's of the companies that exploit and pollute?

3. If we had real statemen and women in the halls of Congress those jobs
Would be here.

Instead those congress critters trip over one another to see who can get the most jobs outsourced and who get get the most H1 visas.
