The woman in the report is with "[http://2010.mediacoop.ca/](The G20 Alternative Media Centre)," an organization that can hardly be considered impartial. Nonetheless, her claims deserve attention. It will be interesting to see if they can be substantiated.

The first computer that go me interested was in grade 9 at school in Canada. An old DEC PDP-8/E with an ancient 110 baud teletype and paper tape reader. The next year we got some TRS-80 Model 1's and the following year we finally got a computer with colour, an Ohio Scientific C4P. That same year (1980) I got my first home computer, an Atari 800 which I eventually outfitted with a 128k (page flipped) RAM card and an ATR8000 CP/M box through which I hooked up four 8-inch DSDD disk drives giving the BBS that I ran from this beast over 4 megs! of storage (this was back when Atari 5-1/4 inch floppy disks could only hold 90k)

The is material from Wendy Cukier. Ms. Cukier, in addition to being a Professor at Ryerson University in Toronto, is a co-founder and the current President of the Coalition for Gun Control (CGC).

I would take any graph produced by her group with a grain of salt as she clearly has an agenda. She has long been one of the loudest voices against firearms in Canada (and now the world in general).

If you go to the http://ryerson.ca/SAFER-Net/ page shown in the image, you will see the disclaimer:

Since the focus of SAFER-Net is on the health and safety effects of small arms and firearms, the choice of articles to be posted here has been biased towards groups and publications who share this focus.

I still have a bunch of records, mostly late 60's and 70's rock in 45rpm and 33 1/3 LPs and even a few classical and 50's rock 78's that I got from my Dad. Also still have a couple 30+ year old old open reel decks and even an 8-track player and some cartridges. They all mostly sit in storage. I picked up a USB turntable and transferred some of the impossible to replace LPs to digital, but other than that most of this stuff just collects dust. Records and reels can sound great, but reels decay over time and records are just too much work and damage too easily. Even looking at old Walkmans it is amazing how cumbersome they seem now next to iPods.

I'm sorry for your loss. It is a terrible thing to lose a family member. I'm sorry too for the responses of a few of the more juvenile minded and heartless folks on Reddit. It is wonderful that he was able to know his grand daughter before his passing.

I've been pulled over many times (especially when riding a motorcycle), but I can't say I've really had a bad encounter with police. In each case they were polite and just doing their job. Could be a Canadian thing. :)

And the "Going to the Sun Road" Waterton Provincial park in Canada borders Glacier National Park and both are spectacular.

The Cabot Trail around Cape Breton Island is amazing. Even better on a motorcycle. Info here

Sick Kids (the Hospital for Sick Children) is actually a pretty cool hospital with an interesting history http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospital_for_Sick_Children

I believe it was a ATARI CX853 16K RAM Memory Module for my Atari 800

I don't take any. I have enough of my own.

For an article that was supposedly just published July 22nd by "JP" it bears a remarkable resemblance to one published in 2006 by Richard English at Modern Drunkard http://www.drunkard.com/issues/10_06/10_06_andre_giant.html
