It's an option, but entirely dependent on who you work for. I would imagine this would be easy for creative type jobs and not so much for business type jobs.

If the license doesn't mention patents, then it doesn't cover them. Copyright licenses and patent licenses are two different things. It's pathetic that the two are actually able to intersect in this manner.

Bush created the deficit because he believed that? I don't think you understand the cause of the deficit or the crisis.

Your driving example is actually characteristic of how men and women differ on the issue. And the opposite is true of accidents: men, who fancy themselves better drivers, get in far more serious accidents due to aggressive and reckless beha

In my (unresearched) opinion, cursor:pointer was created to indicate that a hyperlink can be clicked on. Buttons were obvious, but underlined words in the middle of a paragraph, not so much. It irritates me when people learn a concept and t

You don't 'click on' a button, you 'click' or 'push' it. It's a button. There's no need to change the cursor to let you know that you can actually click on it. That's the reason hyperlinks use the hand.
