Hello,
Here is a link for the Japanese word for privacy, http://dic.search.yahoo.co.jp/search?ei=UTF-8&p=privacy&fr=dic#EJ
It isn't as foreign as it is made out in the podcast.

Dude, it was meant of course completely as a compliment. (Which explains you being on the panel). All humans should listen to the Dude.

Thanks you for the unique description of me at the end of the episode; I'm having difficulty conceptualizing myself that (or any other) way but it sounds good. I'll be sure to share that clip with my regular listeners on the next DicksnJanes podcast. Se you at PAB eh!

Yeah we were good about staying on topic for a change.... We had all watched the Zuckerberg video that day, so I think that helped. As well, we all had opinions here, so that helped. I think Woodford Reserve works much better as a podcast lubricant than Jamieson's....

Most times I would agree with Isabelle, but I have to disagree with her about posting photos of other people on Facebook (although, unless their tagged I don't think they show up in the person's account, but I could be wrong.) It shouldn't matter what someone does in private, but it does.

As a recent example there was a case in Montreal where a woman who was on long term disability for severe depression was cut off because the insurance company found pictures of her on Facebook while she was on vacation (something she was encouraged to do by her doctor). The other case was a page at my library who friended all the staff, including myself (a manager) and then proceeded to post pictures of herself at parties getting drunk and smoking a bong. (Perhaps the lesson in this case is "if you're going to do stuff like this, don't friend your manager").

Also: kudos for staying on topic, and bringing up something that had always bugged me about Star Trek: if you can't beam up the team, why don't they send the damn shuttlecraft down?
