		<description><![CDATA[In case you have not heard or read about it, take a look at this WSJ article before you continue. But why shouldn&#8217;t we be concerned? The short answer: because this incident represents only a tiny sliver of the problem and so many other breaches will follow that it really makes not difference if you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nothing good can come of the proposed acquisition of T-Mobile USA by AT&#038;T. This will lead to essentially a 2-player cell phone market (Verizon and AT&#038;T). Some quotes taken from various news articles: &#8220;We know the results of arrangements like this — higher prices, fewer choices, less innovation.&#8221; (Public Knowledge president Gigi Sohn). &#8220;AT&#038;T will [...]]]></description>

The email (it came from Travelzoo.com, i.e. a neutral 3rd party) also mentioned an $8 fee per ticket [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I saw this question asked in various places, but no satisfactory answer was given. While only Honda knows the answer with certainty, I think there is enough evidence between my own experience and reports on the web of failing Accord and Odyssey transmissions to support a theory.

		<description><![CDATA[[Visit the Facebook Group] So we joined the ranks of people who own a 2003 Honda Accord with a broken transmission. As of 3/4/2009, Carcomplaints.com listed close to 200 similar cases, and it is safe to assume that there were many more who have not found that website, but paid the $3500 that it costs to have [...]]]></description>
