I feel like he's returned the favor a thousand fold! My question is this. I'd like to *hand... |

The tool is licensed, not sold, and customers cannot sell it or lend it to others. Nor can they sell or lend the jigs they make with it. We’re all familiar with license agreements on software tools that limit what you can with the product. But what about a license agreement on a real tool limiting what you can with the product and the things you make with it? “Shrinkwrap licenses are showing up everywhere,” a reader recently wrote. “I just bought a jig... |

| November 4, 2002 Different Face for Cover of Popular MechanicsBy DAVID CARR n the universe of male subjects for magazine covers, there are only a few sure things. Ben Affleck is a winner, and George Clooney is always a good bet to do well on the newsstand. But few can anchor a magazine like Jesus, a cover subject who brings them back year after year, particularly for news magazines like Time, Newsweek and U.S. News & World Report. Now the appeal of Jesus has found a surprisingly new home — the cover of Popular Mechanics. The December issue of... |
